Re: DJeing drunk of your arse

I mean harden up. Fancy calling yourself a dj and "trying to sober up as quick as I can". What a joke. Next it will be "I go on a strict macrobiotic diet before big festival gigs".

huh? you've got some notion that all dj's need to be party animals to fill the job description? what are you, 12? grow up...

Re: DJeing drunk of your arse

i'm told my center of gravity gets low, and i hunker wobbling over the decks like the keeper at the Bridge of Death (Python). never more toasted than anyone in the room though...

Re: DJeing drunk of your arse

i dunno...i usually get drunk as the night goes on. don't really run into any problems. my average night on the decks includes 8-10 drinks, and i haven't screwed up in quite awhile. then again, i'm one of those people who has to tell people he is drunk, cause no one will know otherwise. its the ukrainian and irish in me i guess...

heheh, im half Latvian and half Irish, very similar...except when i get boozed i just want to keep drinking hard. not a good move...usually ends up pretty hazy...i.e not remembering things and generally running on autopilot. LOL. no more than two beers an hour for me.

Re: DJeing drunk of your arse

I've mixed pretty buzzed before.. not too too difficult.

Playing stoned can go either way for me.

Its either really good or I just trip out on the entire system and music. Is it on beat? sounds like it... did someone yell out my name?.. oh thats the track.. or was it? let me look around... wtf, I never heard that sound on this track..

This past weekend I got high and played a really great party set while drinking. It was a friends house warming party and a lot of people turned out, bbq; poker and all.

It came out pretty good. I played nothing but Disco, I had been craving this genre for a while; so I busted out some of my freestyle and disco records and the old Technics

Forgot how cool it was to mix vinyl and non edm dance music.

i couldnt stop laughing.. good thing is with the cdj 800 mkII's when you pop out a cd and put it back in, it picks up where it stopped, like the cdj 200.
I knew a lot of the people that were there, so at least it was a very laid back atmosphere..

one of my mates, foster, dave you may have met him at the THM party you and joe and danton came to.. he did it twice in one night.. hilarious

Yeah, I remember that one at that house with the stripper pole. That's funny.I bet he kicked himself after the second time!

Re: DJeing drunk of your arse

I can play perfect even if pretty drunk if I only start sober and drink myself stupid while on decks. Dunno why.

Starting a set drunk gets from bad to worse though.
