I agree, LA is doin pretty dope. After STRUT, a bunch of people came out
to the Deeper Moods afterhours. Another sick night. Alland and Craig
were insane. They brought that techy electro house that just hit the
spot. If you are ever in SF, visit them at their night, [KONTROL]. The
only snag in the night was the cops commin by a few times and makin us
turn the music down (for a little while). Then around 5am, they started
banging on the back door (not the door used for entrance) but they
eventually left after they saw people leaving. I heard about all the
crazy ishh that happened at STRUT, wow. It takes all kinds. But not
every night is gonna go smoothly. Thanks to Dennis and Caden making the
best of it and for holdin it down at Gotham for as long as they could.
Keep yer head up and keep doin it. We do appreciate you hard work. I
was pretty much dead after friday night. I am glad saturday was dope
too. Would have like to have seen Doc, J howard and J Fiasco. Anyone
have comments on Fiasco's set?

>Friday Night was the closing night for Gotham Hall in Santa Monica
and a
>large handfull of LA's DJ's were invited out to shut the b!tch
down.. They
>had a really good turnout which was a mixed crowd of our house
community
>and the regular hip hop crowd, but in the end things got strange.
Stories
>were being exchanged in the hallways of fights throughout the night
and it
>ended early after a bit of a ruckus. I have to give thanks to Dennis
and
>Caden for putting on such a great weekly there and for having the VT
out
>so many times to play, we always had a great time at Strut and can't
wait
>to see what's next!!

>Saturday Night we started out at Gravity which was in a really nice
venue
>right off of Santa Monica Blvd. When we arrived Eric Davenport was
warming
>up the room nicely (perfect levels) and the lighting was nice and
warm.
>The place looked great. The front room was also filling up with
people
>getting drinks from the bar and chatting a bit. There were a couple
>noticable changes when John Howard came on, the first was the volume
>nearly doubled (way too loud), and the second was that probably 75%
of the

every

>We moved out as well and caught what I think was the performance of
the

patio
>days at Electric and it was sorely missed. He put on a hell of a
show and
>had the place jumpin' in what was supposed to be the "chill" room!
It was
>quite a surprise and it was good to see him back here in LA gettin
some

out

just in

effective

Show?!) we
>made our way through the puddles and into the venue. Doc had the
place in
>the palm of his hands (as always) and it was packed. The tempo was
perfect
>and Mike Fix was posted up in the back making the place look great.
We
>said some hello's and then made our way up to the front to hear the
master
>do his thing.. Next thing I know it's almost 6am and out of nowhere
Doc
>brings in Push Push by Rockers Hi-Fi. The sun is about to come up
and
>everythings perfect. We pull ourselves away from the speakers and
head

cease

>Another great weekend in Los Angeles.. Looking forward to the next
couple
