I called The Docks today, and the nice lady said the tickets would be around $70-$80. So I said, forget it. He’ll be back, and hopefully I’ll be less just-about-to-get-married then.
WEMF happens next week, so maybe I’ll drop by there. None of the artists particularly intrigue me though. However, Mark Farina will be here at the end of July, so perhaps I’ll go to that. He’s a deep house DJ.
DJ Tiesto is playing a 6-hour set at The Docks this Thursday night.
All tickets are sold out, but you can buy at the door for $50. That’s pretty costly, but for 6-hours? I’m still tossing up whether to go or not.
Edit: Doors open at 10pm. I’ve decided to go. Money scrounging begins now! He is the number 1 DJ in the world, after all.
Maybe one day I’ll be a laptop DJ. Like my hero Shane 54. Not that laptop DJing is actually something I aspire to, but Monsieur Fifty Four does it very well.
Anyway, I’ve taken steps toward the dark side in the last two weeks, by A) getting a Numark Axis 8 CD turntable, and B) downloading high-q MP3s to burn and then play on it.
Enter Beatport.com. The iTunes for DJs. I just downloaded 4 tracks that I’ve been wanting to get my hands on for some time.
Moogwai – Viola 2005 (Tek^tonic remix)
GTR – Mistral
Varian – Endless Desire
Varian – Endless Desire (Mark Otten Energetic remix)
How much did I pay for those tracks, you might ask? $5.76!
A single record, a SINGLE record, would cost me at least $10.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not leaving the waxy wonder behind, I’m just needing some practical financial alternatives right now.
Matt made a very important observation, and that my profile was outdated. I am no longer a boyfriend, and am no longer a mail room clerk. The problem has been rectified.
ZEO last night went pretty good, but not a lot of people showed. Included in the no shows were (just as I suspected) most of the young adults (where my friends mostly are). To add insult to injury, this page encourages the young adults to stay in the church building, and the youth only to go to ZEO.
Thanks for not representing. Heaven forbid you have to worship to a style other than alternative/pop/rock.
Yesterday’s biannual School of Ministry milk chugging contest was quite a sight to behold. Each contestant was given 1 hour and 3 litres of milk to prove their manhood, or as was also the case: womanhood. Much hilarity and vomiting ensued.
Also, 190 years ago today, Napoleon was defeated at Waterloo.
For those with legs to dance, which is mostly everyone I know:
There’s a Zeo Party this Friday night (8 pm) at 268 Attwell Drive, in the parking lot.
Featuring DJs: DJ Shagz, J Puddy, Ed King
Spinning: Hip Hop, Funky Breaks, Trance and Hard House.
There’s a 5$ cover, and there will be BBQs and all kinds of great summer stuff.
Come on out, or I’ll be personally hurt.
