Don't get jealous Bitch! :whip: :haha: :haha: :haha: :haha:
Stay the hell away from my Menno! haha Freak!
How does a comment about being a cool kid with long arms translate into a crush? Did want him to finish up so we could go upstairs and party though since I had to jam early Fri.
Did party with Big Perf (Omar) and his gf, TA from Santa Barbara. I think they may had a good time. haha :whip: |

Yeah, now I remember why I wanted him to come upstairs and party because there was hella people upstairs and I was chillin, looking at the crowd from the sidelines and realized everyone was like 5ft tall. I wanted to get him upstairs, get him doing the monkey dance, and get a picture from the that line of site of this freakin giant with these big ass arms and legs skying over everyone else while he monkey danced. he seemed like he would have actually been into that and it would have been great entertainment as well as video/photos.
It was getting late and I kept checking downstairs to see if he was finished and even told him at one point, "Dude! let Taj play, let's go party!" :haha: :haha: :haha: He was a really cool kid. I got to bond with him at dinner since we were sitting next to each other.
This was a wonderful weekend. Was completely exausted by Sat night and stayed at the EU until about 3pm. I must of caught a second wind when I ate those cupcakes cause felt like I was runnin that for a few hours. Oh but my old crew showed up too. LOVE THEM! but damn! I had too many people to love and I just wanted to get to know my little tiny, teeny tiny filippina cutie. Delilah! You've been replaced!
And too busy, trying to "let the monkey out!" Freakin Derek kept gettin in my ear....
"Kirk! The monkey wants to come out and play!" 
"Let the monkey out Kirk! Just for a bit!" :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: Love Derek! Grimey! Keep your hands off my boy! :haha: :haha: :haha: :haha: :haha:
Fun Day at EU! A freakin tropical storm blew in! It was wet and windy but we still got our groove on. haha Actually, there was a point where it was amazingly gorgeous weather - bright warm sunshine with a mild breeze. It was a day the End Up was made for.
And, finally danced to Cuervo so really upped his stock with me. I was actually lifted which may or may not have been the cupcakes. I can't remember timeline details let alone a freakin track someone played. Just lift me baby! :eyespop: :eyes: :whip: :conf: :toothless :wtf: :toocool: |

He is a young stud. Sh#% brotha! Give me a thin athletic body like you fools and there won't be any women left for you young pups! This old dog knows some tricks too but can't compete with you young studs physically. I appreciate it when I see it. |

Menno F*ckin Rocks.
Menno is such a great Dj.
When is he coming back and holy sh*t Dave he really is awsome..
Walking around the club last night and meeting people who came from all over, even the Menno De Jong fan club with their huge poster.. Im not talking all over as just in northern california, people from CO, AK, TX, WA, FL, Miami and a some people from NY... Thats what was freakin awsome.
I arrived at the club around 9:30, probably my earliest yet to get the sound check going, and getting things in order for the night. I always try to get there an hour or so before hand, just to make sure things work right and I have no issues.
Ive pretty much had it with my current digital setup. My Lappy has pretty much had its run, so its time for a new one here coming soon.
Dont know which way Ill go, I will probably go MAC or Alienware. My plans include combining Traktor current versions and Ableton 7.1. I will also be using a midi keyboard cause for some reason I have all these crazy things in my head I need to lay out on sound.
Overall, I think getting their early this time around didnt really count. I got wind that they were changing out the Allen & Heath 92 with a Pioneer 1000, "Great"... I thought, AFTER I hooked everything up and did the sound check with the 92. the descision came from Menno's uppers, so the change had to happen.
Around 10:45 they proceeded to drop the mixer in. which gave me a little under 15 before the mainroom doors opened.
I've hardly used the CDJ's at 1015, but this time I thought I would give them a shot. Combining Traktor with CDJ's proved to be more versatile, so Ill probably be experimenting more with them in the future whenever I play again next.
I started off with some Electro Arty had given me. I didnt really get a chance to prescreen the tracks on the CD, and kept it as a backup should I have any issues with my lappy, which I did at the beginning of the night. 5-6 channels were out, so the first half of my set was really all over the place. I had to switch to channels 1 and 2 on the mixer. I had some technical difficulties in the beginning which made the the CDJ play the same track twice. But thanks to Marie being there, I was back on track. overall I felt like getting into things and trying not only some of those Electro Tracks on Arties CD, and throwin in my a few of my own choices.
basically, that CD saved my ass this time around. After last night I basically wanted to rip my Lappy in half for all the crap it put me through in the beginning of my set...
After the doors opened up at 11, I looked out to the crowd to notice a huge crowd of people. I wasent expecting this, but was hoping to see a good turnout at the beginning. I thank you all for coming out, expecially coming up the booth and saying hi and stuff. Those of you who came up to me and championed my set, Thank you. I am branching out into new genres which will allow me to be versitle.
Throughout my set I played everything but Trance, Highlights of my set included an Airwave Electro remix, Sied Van RielI played, and Andrieux track favorite of the night, its Time.
I got wind that Menno was going to play some classics, so I limited myself just to prevent us playing the same track twice, I also limited myself on Tiesto, his newer stuff, just because I knew that he would probably approach those tracks too to play. I actually encountered this when I opened for Blank & Jones, and Thrillseekers.
Those of you who came up to me and said great set, or that you really liked the last hour or so, thank you. I dont really like Pioneer mixers, maybe its just cause im used to Stanton and Allen & Heath Mixers. I felt a few than more tracks were a bit rough.
More on this later...
When Mennno came in, He proceeded to wish me a happy birthday. He arrived around 12:10, just enough time to get some drinks in him before his set. I think you guys got him so drunk he thought I was discodave. I told him it wasent my birthday, and that I'd tell DiscoDave happy birthday. Right from the start I got the feeling that Menno was a really cool guy. He came in smiling and the crowd began to cheer. After ending my set, the final 2 Tracks I played was my Mashup Freshmaus5 - Nothing but you baby (Dj Blurr Electix Mashup) and Luminary - Amsterdam (Super8 & Tab Remix). The only Trance Track I had in the entire set. Other notable tracks I played were Boiler & Van Riel - With the flames in the pipe (original). Maor Levi - Shapes (Oliver Smith Remix), Cressida - 6AM (K&A Remix), and Tranquilty Base - Surrender (Joonas Hahmo Remix).
Menno started off strong, and I got the feeling that I left him where he wanted to be...
More later when I wake up. 8:30AM now...
For now, A big THANK YOU to all of you who attended my opening set. A bigger thanks to TAJ for allowing me open for someone of Mennos Caliber. Definitely will be a night I will remember as I continue my journey as a Dj.

BIG UPS for playing Cressida - 6am (Kyau & Albert Remix) :crazy:
