A weekend of firsts (GIG INFO)

So there are a bunch of firsts for me this week.

First:
-DJ vs DJ battle
-Djing in two countries in two nights
-CT Scan

Spring Fling this Friday at the Waldorf at 8pm I'm going head to head with Geordie. I've never done a vs. before. Knowing Geordie, it'll be nothing but fun. For us and the dancers. I think we both bought a ton of new music for it.

Spring Fling this Friday at the waldorf then at a friends house party in seattle.
Do you wanna come? you can... just email me and I'll tell you about it..... but you *have* to know that you're the shit, and are cool enough to get in! =P

And the fun one.....

So last Monday I get an ingrown nose hair... like I get from time to time. Except that this one, 4 days later, has swelled up the side of my face to the point I can't open my left eye! I go into the hospital, get my IV antibiotics.... and a CT (cat) Scan.

Seeing CT scans on TV and movies only, I had no idea what to expect, so I just laid down closed my eyes and didn't move, swallow, move my eyes or anything.
The machine fires up and I can hear the scanner rotaing around my head AND I saw a light the started as a shimmering white sheet that quickly faded to purple, blue, and back.
It was like looking at the nothern lights. But only lasted 6-10 seconds, and then it was gone.

I thought it was cooler to know that nobody else had reported seeing them before.

So that's it...

Email me about saturday. =)

IT works....practice does work....

OK, so I spent last weekend and Thurs. and Friday at an event.
I was on the decks every second I could be.

Thursday I played a slower progressive set while people sat around and danced and talked, played with poi and flags ( very fun )

Friday I played a set for myself and two others. Danced until the wee hours of the AM, slamming tracks over with reckless abandon, and having it beat match 50% of the time.

And when my main set came up ( Saturday night ) I rocked for about 4-5 hours.
Mind you I started running out of good tracks by the 4th hour.

I had amazing compliments for hours afterwards leading into the next day
Ranging from :
" You Bastard, my legs are killing me from dancing all night"
" You music took me to some other place" ( My personal fav.)
" You have a great mastery of bringing the energy up and down, then back up again"
" When are you playing next, because I have to be there!"
" ...Am I high or is BT on fire tonight? "
followed by " BT's on fire tonight "

Thanks to those who danced, and for the compliments....

I'm renewed with a vigor to DJ more!
It got me out of my lull. =)

Up's down's In's and Out's

OK, I *just* got in from a DJ set at an after(burn)hours.

Despite one CD Deck refusing to read cd's halfway through my set, AND the other deck loosing any ability to control tempo.

I played my best set.

I have to Thank M@ for having, and letting me spin from my CD's through his laptop and Tracktor.

And thank everyone for dancing and screaming.... that was a first! =)

Now to go to sleep for 3 hours! =)

A rare plea for help.....

I'm in sh!t.

I was installing and reformatting a hard drive on my computer, and while I was creating the partitions, I remembered the golden rule too late.

I didn't disconnect my other hard drive.
The one I haven't backed up in 4 years.
All my photo's from Dawson City, to 4-5 years of Burning man, family, friends... all that jazz.

Really important stuff, even though I'm trying to convince myself that " It's just data, it doesn't matter"

It is important to me. i have a lot of emotional attachment to it.

I know it's not gone, as all I did was delete the partion. So the data is still there.

If anybody knows a good partion recovery program, or has had to do this before, please contact me.

Dammit, I'm an ID 10T.

Thank you for any help.

Second Mix is ready! =)

OK, if you liked my first mix... hell even if you hated it.

First Mix anyone?

OK,

So here it goes.

It's a 148MB Mp3.

Thanks for hosting Doc.
(and for the pic....=)

Feel fre to let me know what you think.

... and I still don't feel right having the "DJ" before my name
as I have yet to "D" a "J".

=)

May the G4's be with me!

OK, putting the feelers out.

If anyone hears of a:

17" G4 1.5 GHz Laptop

...going for a good price ( Less than $1000 USD )

Please let me know.

I'm doing the eBay thing, but if I can help out a friend before a stranger, all the better.

Spanks,

BTox
