Dog Days, Summer Beats

Hey folks,

For those of you in the Toronto area, I have great news: I'm actually doing a gig that's actually open to the public! That means you get to actually see me play music, and dance 'n everything! ;)

Seriously though, I've been gigging here and there in the past year or so, but everything's been private parties and weddings, and other creative interests and hobbies have had my energy and time instead of organizing and throwing my own james. (Speaking of, my choral arrangement of the Foo Fighter's "My Hero" is up on YouTube if you wanna see what else I was doing.

But now those interests are aligned! Myself and a couple of my fellow djs (including Dynamite Chris Wright) will be spinning beats at a fundraiser jam for the choir on Wed, August 8th @O'Grady's Pub, 171 College St. (Just west of University a couple block; closest TTC station is Queen's Park) Doors are at 8pm, with a $10 cover, all proceeds going to Univox Choir.

I know it's going to be pretty awesome night. I've dj'd for the Univox peeps before and they are just up for it, a real pleasure to spin tunes for. And I've got some new choice dance floor heaters lined up, some cheeky bootlegs and a brand new Macbook to test drive. (My trusty 6-year old machine finally bit the dust; Kids, listen to your parents when the say "back up your data!" I know I did.)

Also...for those who often complain that you never get to see me spin 'cuz I go on past your bedtime (I won't mention any names ;), this being a Wed night gig I'll be going on early at 10:30. I know, incredible. :)

What: Dog Days, Summer Beats, a fundraiser for Univox
When: Wed, Aug 8th, 8pm
Where: O'Grady's Pub, 2nd Floor, 171 College St, Toronto
How much: $10, all proceeds to Univox
Who: Dynamite Chris Wright, dj Quy, Shagz spinning pop to house to breaks to nu disco to electro and everything else inbetween and outside of that. Bring your thirst and your dancing shoes!
