..
.. It's official, I
am now a twit.
After avoiding the pull of Twitter for so long, I posted
on Facebook to see if people thought I should join the Tweeter generation.
After a deluge of messages, phone calls, IMs, responses, etc - the overwhelming
answer is 'yes.' You can follow me @djron91 - I also have my Facebook set to
update the status automatically and can text directly. Whereas at Tribe, I can
be online and update Facebook directly as I spin... at Play, I can now update
Twitter and Facebook directly via text message. I am working on some ideas for
giveaways and contests while I am spinning - i.e. the first person to come to
the booth when they get a Tweet, wins a prize So start following me on twitter
@djron91 - let's use technology to have more FUN!
Talking about FUN -
Labor Day Weekend is just CRAZY. I am spinning Thursday and Friday at Tribe,
Saturday at Starbase (Louisville), and Sunday at Play (with
Melinda Doolittle).
The first Friday of each month at Tribe is
HRC Post Office - where you can get a mailbox to exchange messages with that
interesting face you want to meet. Donations support the Human Rights
Campaign. Tonight, we are also celebrating the release of Whitney Houston's
highly anticipated new album "I Look To You." So we will have CD giveaways and
Whitney videos being featured throughout the night. Come out to Tribe for
a night of fun and mayhem with the great drinks, the sexiest bartenders, and my
musical video madness. Be there to launch your Labor Day weekend!
There
is always talk about whether a bride is pure enough to wear white. I am
wondering what to wear for the White Party at Starbase Q in Louisville on
Saturday. A little-known fact- I am not that pure... but then again, who at my
age (35) still is? I had spun at Starbase Q for their Pride kickoff and they
invited me back for this special party. I will be spinning from 10pm-4am so
expect a full night of music video madness... to all y'all in Kentucky, come out
to Starbase Q to see what it's all
about!
Sunday night is going to be an exciting night. American Idol
Melinda Doolittle is going to be performing her dance hit "It's Your Love" on
the dance stage at Play. You can check out the remix video
here on YouTube! I will be spinning all night in the dance bar with a lot of
brand new remixed videos and hot tracks. I am very excited about the remix
video that producer Robert McAuley did for Lenny B's remix of Backstreet Boys
"Straight Through My Heart!" Also watch for new remix videos of Lilly Allen
("F*ck You"), Pet Shop Boys ("Did You See Me Coming"), Madonna ("Celebration")
and Anjulie ("Love Songs.") So come out Sunday night to Play for an
incredible night of Hi-NRG music and video!
Make sure to mark on your
calendar next Wednesday to be at Tribe for Hump Day with Daisy Rae. Not
only will we be giving away Queen Latifah's new CD - we will also be celebrating
the DVD release of "Randy & the Mob" The movie is describe as "a feel-good
comedy with a Southern twist. Good ol' boy Randy Pearson (Ray McKinnon) can't
seem to help getting in over his head, and so he borrows from the Mob. When he
can't pay, his only hope is a helping hand from his long-suffering wife (Golden
Globe Nominee Lisa Blount); his estranged gay twin brother Cecil (also played by
McKinnon), and Tino Armani (The Shield's Walton Goggins), a mysterious modern
day prophet with a knack for high fashion, Italian cooking, and making money
appear and disappear." Winners of Daisy Rae's games will win both the Queen
Latifah CD and the "Randy and the Mob" DVD. So be sure to come
out.
Speaking of Movies - the documentary Outrage opens at the Belcourt
today, running for a week. If you've ever wondered why it's always the most
anti-gay of lawmakers who seem to get busted in tearoom stings, Director Kirby
Dick (Sick, This Film Is Not Yet Rated) has made the movie for you. Examining
the voting records of several closeted politicians whose voting records are
especially shameful as regards the GLBT community, this film will angry up the
blood as well as informing the mind. Don't miss it.
One last thing to
mention, and this is a little bit awkward for me to mention. Last year, I was
voted Best Club DJ in the Nashville Scene Reader's Poll. I didn't campaign for
it and honestly didn't think I was even in the running. There are so MANY
incredible Club DJs in this town - Lenny B, Mindub, Joey Modus, Chip B, Stretch,
Coach, Phil, Justin Kase, Jane Dupree, Playgroup, Spoon, and many more that I
love and respect. When I won, I was completely in shock and completely
humbled by the response from everyone out there. Voting for the 2009 Best of Nashville
Survey is now taking place at http://polls.nashvillescene.com/polls/nvs/bestof09/.
Best Club DJ is category #96. If you choose to vote for me, I am honored and
thank you for your support.
