Cecil B. DeMille’s got nothing on me!
Online Dance Party 10 is in the books. We had a lot of fun with requests last night. A few brave souls called in, and I eventually got the call-in system working well, but most people preferred to text in requests. Hmph. Millennials.
I wonder how much longer these dance parties will happen. I feel like I’m providing a fun distraction for folks trapped in their homes 24/7, but as more and more of the world opens back up, I think people are less and less likely to want to spend their Friday nights watching me spin records from home. Time will tell! The entire Twitch DJ thing has taken off to an incredible extent. I know I mentioned how prevalent it had become a few weeks ago, but that was nothing compared to now. Streaming DJ’ing is definitely a Thing with a capital T.

Your show was remarkable. I’ve never heard a DJ play such a variety of styles, let alone in such a flowing way. I barely noticed the big shifts in genre because it all made sense as it happened. Thank you for these shows!!!
You may think that I’m so horsefaced I might try to chew a watermelon through a wire fence.
