Club Etiquette 101.1-Let The Games Begin…

 

DJs can not talk to you when they are actively mixing. Can you send an important deadline email or memo, while someone is picking up your computer mouse and telling you about their day? …Exactly…Neither can we…

 

DJs are not accountable for your friend’s forgotten passport…or their expectations of a night full of free drinks on their friend’s DJ friend. If I came to your crib and just grabbed some food out of the fridge, then sat down and asked you for some of the food you were eating off your plate, you’d consider me kind of rude right?...Exactly…So would we…

 

This week is bittersweet for me. Tons of gigs and great happenings including two great nights in DC on Sunday and Monday ( see listing below). In the midst of that, we lost my girl’s grandfather a few days back. I gotta send some parting love, and a strong RIP shout out to my son’s great grandfather, and one of my favorite people in the world, Mr Peter Washinsky. We love you, we miss you, and we will all cherish our memories with you Lolo! I’m so happy you got to meet your great grandson before you left us for higher ground. We all know you’ll have ‘em all laughing  in heaven.

 

See you on the dancefloor real soon,

Rich

Happy first month of 2009 you guys.

 

The beginning of the year is always bugged out to me, because we always run around declaring everything that we claim to stand for, only to end up falling for anything by the next new year. Human nature? Maybe. Lazy, arrogant Americanism? More likely than not. With that, my 2009 general resolution is to stop making bullshit resolutions. No better time than now to stop being full of shit right? i knew you'd agree with me on that.

 

I try to keep these blogs relatively upbeat, but some times we need a reality check... and know, that by we i mean us, myself included. Hope you making the most of your liberties these days. Check out this documentary on oppression, and you might feel better about your neighborhood, job, family, perspective and situation than you ever have…
