Saturday...

heading home at 5am on Sunday

robot Blair - Grammar School Mix Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3

So Saturday's party was a lot of fun - got to meet and hang out with the Walter Meego guys, all of whom are super nice, mister Bruno is a gentleman and a scholar, and the boat, despite the rocking (no wonder sailors are always drunk), the faulty sound (that I managed to fix after an hour of recabling) and damp heat (read: sweaty as hell), was one of the most fun, and most bizarre, venues I've ever played. A big thank you to my friends and all the other random folks that came out and danced.

I played for around four hours, so here are three CD-length chunks of the night - the CDJ that David rented wasn't working properly, so I had to use the regular CD players a few times, and as such there are some pretty messy vinyl-to-CD transitions. Regardless, people kept dancing and I thoroughly enjoyed myself - discotechnomadness prevailed!
