JUST US – F.U. Guys…Whatever

So, somehow Luis convinced me that the two of us should come out of DJ retirement, and do a gig at the Half with 2 weeks notice.  Neither of us have DJ equiment, and neither of us remember how to DJ.  I ended up getting Traktor Pro from my guys at Native Instruments the day of the gig, and learned the basics within hours of the gig.  We ended up using my laptop, and opened up a bunch of gear from my store to go along with it because we had no equipment.  We both had no idea what we had for music, how to use the software, or if any of this stuff would work at the bar we were playing at, but we really didn’t have a choice, we kind of had to wing it.  An hour before the party, I realized that we had nothing to even put our setup on, so I deconstructed Luis’ bathroom shelving stand and we used it as our DJ stand.  It’s JUST US, we don’t care what anybody thinks anyway.  We show up at gigs with bathroom shelving.

The event went off so well, tons of people, everyone danced, and people thanked us for doing it like nobody else does it.  It was really fun.

Courtney drove me home, and spent the night.  We ended up drinking (yet again) a bottle of wine when we got home, and stayed up till 4:30.
