JELO - HAIR CUT...???
I think whoever did make that drunk impression was indeed DRUNK or had spotted my lookalike (kamran - the afro haired version) who was also in the club that night, personally invited by myself for the occasion - and yes I can confirm I finally did have my curly wurlies cut earlier that day
as for playing hard, it's always interesting to hear other people's versions of events but i have to say one thing. If u can't take the heat, take a break out of the kitchen until you're ready to come back in - The set at footwork and the set on the boat were ALWAYS in my mind going to be two entirely different sounds and concepts so make sense of that if you will.
The reason I am making a rare post is I feel I too as the DJ have to make a comment about the boat situation that seems to have plagued many parties over the course of the summer there in your wonderful city.
The fact is, it is NOT going to be how it was, especially that very epic summer 2007 afternoon. From what I hear there are almost 2-3 weekly boat parties now each summer in Toronto....???? slight overkill no? And with the abuse of drugs and irresponsible behaviour that seems to have been an unfortunate recurring theme, I feel now that the 'novelty' of spending a special day out in the sun listening to something alternative yet equally musically and spiritually uplifting is now lost on a lot of people there
I say this because I more than anyone else that afternoon got SEARCHED INSIDE OUT - this was after an initial problem the security had with me bringing FRUIT onto the boat so I could keep myself fresh for the afternoon ahead. It was embarassing on Dwaine's part as he attempted to lecute me on how as the DJ, I should be leading by example....???? But what can you do. Unfortunately all these factors have now left a bad taste in the majority of people's mouths when it comes to deciding about whether they want to part with $30-50 of your money for this.
I had a fantastic time on Sunday especially and yes I was too a little suprised by how long I was told to 'contain myself' before they could let me play at full volume. Once things were in full swing, the party WAS in full swing. Slaps though for some people that thought I was going to play harder. That's why I did Footwork the night before - still laughing at the 'music being too hard' comment
It is unfortunately the last time I will do a boat cruise there in the city . This is something not even the promoters are to blame for but the policies that the boat now enforce....
i personally think there should be a cap on how many of these boat parties go on over the course of the summer but then again, are the boat companies not going to want to make money whenever someone or anyone wants to throw a boat party?? I doubt that very much
either way, thanks to all of you who did come to both shows and till the next time - peace...xxx |

I believe this was a tactic by the crew in hopes that you would purchase a $5 burger
(which they advertised non-stop during the first hour during your set - instead of letting you play full tilt..... people were complaining the music was too quiet, yet the burger announcements had people plugging their ears in disbelief) |

well said Demi.
The boat cruises just aren't what they used to be....and it's unfortunate that you also had to deal with the BS from the staff. Glad you still had a good time. And yes, as soon as you were "allowed" to turn up the volume, the party FINALLY got going!!!
It def. wasn't all bad :) It was my frist time seeing u, and I really enjoyed your set. |
