MASSIVE
News - DJing at Assimilation Depeche Mode Tribute Night, 11-14!
Current Mood: A little tired.
Current Scent: What About Adam by Joop!.
Lanna,
X and I just returned from dinner at Be Le with a couple of friends.
It was realy wonderful, and the staff and owner there are incredibly
nice people. The food was phenomenal and 100% vegetarian.
Good times all around.
I
have really big-time news about a forthcoming event in November.
I've known about it for a little while, but the news became "official"
within the last week or so, and the flyer design has finally been completed.
THE
BIG NEWS...
On Saturday, November 14th, Re:Mission Entertainment will be presenting
Assimilation's Depeche Mode Tribute Night.
They
have asked ME to be a special guest DJ for the event!!! Holy
crap!
I'll
be DJing alongside DJ Bone!!, DJ Sokmonkey, and DJ Diverse.
Now,
I know what a lot of you are thinking: "Badger, didn't you
host/DJ your own Depeche Mode night at the Gypsy Coffee House earlier
this year?" That is correct - it was a Depeche Mode album
release party, and it was fun. This will be very different, however,
in a number of ways:
- At this
event, the other DJs and I will be playing more than just Depeche
Mode. We'll be focusing on DM tracks (I plan on composing at
least 50% of my set of DM tracks), but there'll be other music played
as well - in the retro, electronic, industrial, and goth veins.
- This
event won't be free, but it'll be close. The cover charge is
only five bucks - that's dirt cheap! If you bring at least one
canned food item, it'll be just FOUR bucks! Even cheaper
than dirt cheap!
- You
can DRINK at this one! Boo-yah! (This will be an all-ages
event, but obviously you'll need to be 21 to drink.)
- Considering
Assimilation's significant following, this event will probably have
a much larger turnout - which means an even BIGGER party with even
MORE dancing than I had at my event!
This will
be held at the Marquee, the same place at which I DJed at the "True
Faith" event in July. (However, as opposed to "True
Faith," I'm pretty sure all the DJs at this one will be
playing more than TWO SONGS. Heh heh.)
Of course,
like I've done before, I plan on digging into my vaults and playing
some really tough-to-find remixes. And... I have at least one
BIG surprise in store for the Depeche Mode fans that make it to this
night, but I can't say it yet. I don't want to jinx it.
So, those
of you who enjoy my DJing and/or those of you who love Depeche Mode
should mark down November 14th on your calendar right away.
I want to see a massive turnout at this extremely special night!
So, there's
one big chunk of news. But, it's not the ONLY big news I plan
on revealing this month.
Stay tuned.
:)
