Bats set listies: 030713 - 031713

It's been an eclectic couple of weeks.

I liked it.

Partied with the best (Necromos) at Club Apparition.

Particularly proud to be part of Black Cat Lounge, as I got to spin that I was raised on, and I think my folks would give a nod of approval (mostly). 

Got interviewed by a former teacher for a book she's writing about DJs and club life/pseudo-politics.  AWESOME.

Two weekends at The Box.  Last weekend was weird...it was just a weird night for everyone involved.  Everyone going through their own personal weirdnesses.

But we made it.

So let's review the evidence.

I'm taking tomorrow off, folks.  Gonna be doing a fun photo shoot around cemeteries in Colma, and then hanging out with the lovely ghosts with the mosts at the Horror Hop in San Francisco.  Come share a drink with me there, or get back to shaking those bones at The Box!  Options!  They're great!

'til next time...
