The Problem With Being A DJ and Being A Civilian So this beautiful girl wants me to take her out "dancing".
She says "Your A DJ. Take Me to a good House evening
at a club." (trust me. I tried to use "well I'm a bedroom DJ already.)
I start searching and my head is spinning. What venue, DJ, ambience, etc. ughhhh.
Then I find this cool little venue. Not too big. Not too small. Nice vibes.
But their DJ list is off the wall. The venue is called Electric Pickle and next weekend they have Konrad Black.
I search Konrad Black and find these three videos. What the hell is he going to play next weekend ???
Minimal Tech, Deep House, Disco, ..... WTF ?

How does she know you are a DJ and expects you to know the house scene at Miami, if you are still only a "bedroom DJ" and actually don't know the scene at all? Could it be you were less humble/ truthful than you should have been to her about your experience as a DJ? I'd say, you created the situation you are in....yourself..... and you should find your way out.......yourself. My words of advice though are....
Tell her the truth. Tell her that you are actually a DJ noob (maybe not use that exact word), before you go on that date. Tell her it is actually a new experience for you too and thank her for suggesting doing it and it will be a very interesting evening
. Cause, if you keep up the charade, either she will stay totally blonde and you will be in luck or she will notice you are not really who she expects. Not good!

heh I read this with a Dr. Phil voice. lots of truth there |

That's why it's a little difficult to find the right venue and DJ.

Take her to the Space terrace at 6am on a evening
Chus and Ceballos are playing there.
She'll get it. |

cute video. doesn't prove anything except that the video editor can make a mix of his favorite tunes.
I've heard mixed reviews of Electric Pickle. Their calendar is wack.
I just hate planning a evening
and showing up for garbage. Miami is so volatile.

19.08.2012 | I believe get Haze to recommend you a Housey evening
, and also tell her you're a noob to Djing, but you've been recommended a evening
, and that you can both go and check it out TOGETHER!
That way you take the pressure off, and you can both talk freely on whether you liked/disliked it. |

18.08.2012 | Dude this is Miami....there are tons of tight spots that play house music!! What vibe are you looking for. Electric Pickle wouldn't be my first choice for a date evening
, unless i was into a techy/underground type of vibe and most girls that want to party to "house" music in this city are into Avicci first. Let me know what vibe you're looking for. |
Lela Umanskaya
18.08.2012 | Maybe you suck, and every one else is good. Lolol
But for real, if these people are out dancing, DJing and generally enjoying 'the scene', while you are so far removed that you can't even come up with a good date idea... Maybe it's time to take a step back and ask why? |

A little from column A, a little from column B and column C as the 'one more tune'.
Doesn't seem odd at all to me, he'll be that deep/tech sound by the looks of it. |
