"INSANE IN THE MEMBRANE..."

it was great. so what if we had two minor scuffles and had to kick out some underage drinkers, overall the night was just plain GREAT! crowd started showing up early and danced and partied all night long. and of course we had big daddy T goin nuts all night long. not that thats a bad thing, most of the time, but its okay.. i'm gonna invest in a helmet. first dance set of the night is usually not that long - not tonight it wasnt. second dance set - freakin excellent. last dance set of the night - it was pretty darn good, but damn... we were running out of things to play. and dont get me wrong, they were dancing to the country music all night long.

which reminds me - does George Straight EVER have a fight with his wife? and if so, does he just write a song for her as an apology? "sorry honey, love you, here's another song thats gonna go platinum so you can buy anything you want." you go george! cause its sure workin for us!

so anyway, we keep playin the music, keep in the crowd going, and trying not to lose our minds, and when we look up at the rest of the building at last call.. there are still over 800 people in the building. 3am was gettin real close on the clock before the majority of people started to head out. at 3 i was telling them that it was time for breakfast and time to recover for tomorrow night.

... sunday night - halloween. what the heck am i gonna be this year... hmmmmmmmmm

i love distractions.

short skirts, low cut tops, tight jeans, wonderful examples of mammalian development, and turkey-timers. if it weren't for that tonight i'd have gone nuts.

payday weekend, holiday weekend. this better be worth it. we're about to have a building full of rednecks dressed up for halloween... someone every year wears a sheep and overalls. at least we'll have some half dressed women to make up for it.

i got that not so fresh feeling...

i was doin good wed. night, really, up until around 10ish. then i dont know what happened. started feelin out of sorts. didnt help any that some lady threw up all over the floor.. but thats an occupational hazard. we still managed to have a pool tourney, and the wet t-shirt contest, despite not having a really large crowd on a wed. night. friday's and saturday's are still kickin ass, and wed. is still pretty good, but i am really dreading tonight. ass-end of the pay period and everyone is broke. staying positive about this is gonna be difficult but, i gotta try.

wish me luck...

long see no time?

so as i look back, and see that its been waaay to long since i updated this thing, i realize that i should probably pay moe attention to whats going on. its been almost ten days since my last post and things have been a little weird.

FRIDAY 10-15, tim's birthday - i should have worn a helmet. and he should have gone straight to de-tox. if you had wrung him out you could have used his blood to power a car. remind me next year to but stock in a certain brand of tequila just prior to october.

SATURDAY 10-16, still recovering from tim's birthday...

SUNDAY 10-17, still recovering from tim's birthday....

WEDNESDAY 10-20, pretty much normal wednesday night people-wise, but its always the little behind the scenes details that screw things up for everyone. there's been a long running issue at the club about sound. i cant go into specific details yet, cause its gonna go to trial, but we've gone past the usual complaint about it being too loud in the club, to it being too loud in the neighborhood. so between management and the dj's, we have a lovely combination that makes for a whole lot of cranky. more on that later

THURSDAY 10-21, typical. nobody there... nobody caring... cranky dj.

FRIDAY 10-22, let me get this straight - if we play the music the way we normaly do on a friday night, we dont get told once to turn it down, the crowd stays nice and happy and dances all night long, and management doesnt bug us... WHAT?! other than that, friday night was a blast and a half, even with the microphone breaking, and the headphone jack connector breaking and breaking cd's.... NORMAL FRIDAY

SATURDAY 10-23, it took till after 1 for us to wake up. then it was game on.
SUNDAY 10-24, hardly anyone there, but they were in a party mood and i was bouncing off the walls. niiiiiice.

i promise to make a better effort to keep up with this thing, especially with the holidays approaching. next sunday is halloween, and with any luck i'll have some pics for the website. stay tuned.

i dont need rehab...

i work in a bar. all i have to do is look around me and have an excuse. been awhile since i posted, but its been fun. nice long holiday weekend for us, thursday was good for a change, friday was still friday, and saturday was cranky cop night. we ended up getting a sound complaint that lead to a nice fat ticket that the lawyers get to handle. turns out that it wasnt even our club making all the noise.. and we put out enough noise to make a 747 jealous. inside the building. outside is another story.

and zooming off to another topic, I LOVE DIGITAL CAMERAS AND HAVING A DJ BOOTH THAT IS THAT FAR IN THE AIR!!! gotta get more megapixels....

yall stay tuned. tim's b-day on friday. i gotta go find a helmet.

dont be mad... i'm still here

not even an eventful weekend.. not. had a birthday, felt old. nuff said

friday was good, we tried to pace ourselves so we werent burnt out on saturday. lots of fun was had by all.

saturday was the birthday. felt old for a change. still had fun.

sunday. i had more fun on sunday that i've had all week... kookie! not a big crowd, but damn. they wanted to party. gimmie more like that!

!@#$%@#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

other than that i'm okay.

and so we enter the holiday season - halloween, thanksgiving, christmas, new years. time for loads of fun. we'll see.
