I went to the 2nd party hosted by going.com at Debonair last night. These people love open bar and for that, I love them. They had some good DJs this time. The downstairs DJ (possibly Hollywood Holt, can’t remember) could transition from Salt N Pepa’s “Push It” to Peter Bjorn and John’s “Young Folks”and make it work dammit! He mixed a lot of old music like Technotronic and C+C Music Factory with current hits.
And then came Juiceboxxx! I don’t think he’s even old enough to be at a bar but damn is he fun. He grabbed the mic and ran into the crowd for most of his set. I could see a divide between people who had some idea who he was and people that were in the back thinking “WTF is this skinny white boy screaming about?” The people up front jumped and screamed along, his excitement is kind of infectious. I wish more musicians would throw themselves into the crowd the way he did.
Now it’s going to be insanely hot the rest of the weekend. I should have gone to the Taste after work on Friday. Oh well, I am prepared to sweat for my city. And my fatness.
here we come!
