Well, supposedly, the new club opens on New Years (or before), so I should be there. If not, then I'm gonna take it off like last year. It was so relaxing just my girl and I at the beach.

Fuck working, I'm gonna try and finally make it out to Vegas for new year's...

von kuf undercut you swift ?

don't laugh,. this isn't a joke. all the promoters at the atrium were really impressed how much this cat put into their party FOR FREE. they also took note at the fact that despite the fact he had a really shitty room, his room was PACKED ALL NIGHT. hot ass chicks and everything,.

yeah, puma, uno seis, cquence and myself rocked it and kept the party moving but the promoters don't look at what we did as making them a whole lot of money. they look at it as THEY brought the people and WE rocked them.

so we have cats like von-u-kuff and cquence's boys, mix armada, who are DJs AND promoters. i'm not saying anything,.. i'm just sayin ...

Yall givin Mix Armada a bad rap, these guys are good promoters, and good club rockin DJz, who are about their money. They aint puttin in work for free.

i wasn't trying to say mix armada was puttin in work for free. i know they get their money. i was just saying that in order to book dj gigs, i gotta become a promoter now.

honestly, digging for music, putting shit together, doing remixes & edits, figuring out what sucks and what's hot. that's shit's a full time job, on top of the full time job i already have. adding promoter to the mix, makes shit even more impossible.

if you can't beat em, join em. i using my tax refund next year to hire some swift showstoppers.

Im not promoting, fuck that, if I dont get booked so be it, no sellout over here. I get booked on my skills and skills alone, thats all I need. Thats why I have a dayjob.

Wont happen swift, Club M doesnt have promoters nor do they need them, they are the only club in Laguna, that's why it's packed EVERY week, with NO promoters, I really love that place.

DJing is supposed to be about,..... "being a good dj", but I myself have been saying for a LONG time that actual talent has very little to do with which DJs stay booked. I know some OC djs who NO ONE would agree are good by any stretch of the imagination, DJs who stay booked. Go figure.

putting Blisk on blast is not necessary

blisk knows i aint talking about him, but for everyone else, if you think i might be talking about you then you're probably right.

damn, forgot the "j/k"

what's up blisk, SUGAR in november? october was f*ckin mess. let me know what your schedule is!

Im not promoting, fuck that, if I dont get booked so be it, no sellout over here. I get booked on my skills and skills alone, thats all I need. Thats why I have a dayjob.

I cant even deny it Blisk, I love it, I wish I still knew what was hot on the streetz up there. Traxamillion always brought heat. I dropped "Hyphy Juice" at the Atrium. That got Uno Seis goin stupid

Yeah, the only way anyone is getting in Club M is skills, the manager/dj booker is a dj himself and is not letting ANY wack dj's get any deck time, another reason why I love that place.

only if I get ot play dumb hyphy!

what was a mess is that Japanese DJ from Japan.

sorry to interrupt: i just want to say that one manager tried to book me for 150USD for nye to play from 9pm to 3am...

it was tempting - i almost agreed - than i laughed at his face - didn't reply at all - turned my back and hope he never talks to me again

house-party with all the friends, cheap gear (ya know.. stanton tts, numark mixer, dell laptop, etc.) and everybody will have a chance to spin a couple tunes, do the mighty scratch (the one were the needle goes across the record, not the one where it seats in the groove and the record goes back and forth)...

a hell of a good time, loads of drinking and since the house is in the country side, we can try to make our ears bleed with the volume up of 4 400w speakers in a big living room with 40 people in there...

*sigh*

:)

p.s. - i love nye partys...

i didn't read all the posts, but i'm booked at one of my residencies for nye. doing video and getting double what i normally get plus a phat bar tab.

I got two offers for NYE. I turned one down already. NYE is usually the day I like to party with my friends. This year Tiesto is in town, so I really wanna go see him. But I got a really tempting gig i haven't turned down.

Venue: THE HOLLYWOOD PALLADIUM
Event: DESVELADA SUPER ESTRELLA
Perks: HEADLINE, RADIO COMMERCIALS, TV COMMERCIALS, 4000 People!!!!

It's the second year they ask me to DJ there. Last year I turned it down too, and this year I'm thinking about it. If I go see Tiesto, I'm going with some friends. If I DJ here, I'll be with a lot more friends!!!!

I dunno how to negotiate this gig. It's the same promoters I've been playing all year for. They offered me $500. I'm thinking of asking for $500, a bottle of Grey Goose, and passes for my friends. What you guys think? Cuz honestly, NYE is the only time I get to actually spend time with my friends.

same as last year - or different?
