SV, DJD, Phat Kat in Mainz, Germany: Sept. 21st
October 31, 2007 by djdesign
This was while walking around in Mainz, shoppin’ for kicks. I noticed in the that while we were traveling in the van, all El did was listen to instrumental tracks on his headphones. He’s one of those dudes (ie: Jigga) that writes lyrics in his head. T3 on the other hand was on his PSP the whole time. Mainly watching bugged out indie films. I hate that van!
In other news, I’m finishing up my LP, should be out in March. T3 hated on the name of the record. Jetlag. Now I don’t even like it. He said he’d come up with a name for it and that he’s good at it. What was the name of their last album? Slum Village. Creative stuff, dude! 
Hot Kick and Snare Loop, use it!

I got a new haircut…

I know I look too serious, but I’m in a hotel lobby with only the receptionist who is sitting next to me and watching Mr. Deeds. I can only hear it and it sounds like a cheesy movie from the 1940’s.
So, the show in Glasgow went well, although only about 20% of the crowd knew who we were. The crowd was a mix of 17 to 25 years old. It looked a lot like a San Francisco crowd. There were a bunch of art nerds wearing tight jeans and glasses. But that’s cool right? Anyhow, gotta go, the promoter is here waiting…
I bought a 14 dollar beer last night.
September 26, 2007 by djdesignThat is what it converted to. A Guinness draft in a can. 79 Norwegian Kroners. I also tipped the nice bartender 21Kr to round it off. Thats about four bucks. So, around 18 dollars to have a beer. WOW.
The taxes on alcohol are high here, my man…
I also bought some Snuss. It’s a Norwegian version of Copenhagen, or Skoal. Those chewing tobaccos names look very Scandinavian come to think of it. The kind I am trying is called Mocca. It’s in a cutesy pink tin. The girl selling it to me said it’s sort of a ladies tobacco!? Well, it is sort of light, minty and not very strong so, ok. I get it.
The show here in Oslo was very good. The promoters ordered pizza for us that actually tasted like pizza.
And we drank a very nice wheat vodka that had a wonderful finish. It was called Heavy Water. Look it up if you may be interested.
The women here are all so very tall. One of them came up to me after the show and started speaking in her native language to me and I stopped her mid-sentence to say, “sorry, I don’t speak your language” and she said “c’mon man, you are a faker.” I asked what she meant and she said she knew I was Norwegian. I told her to get lost.
T3 bought a Pippi Longstocking doll on the plane yesterday and brought it on stage with him. That was pretty funny. He started taking photos of girls holding it and I think he was having them sign it too.
T3 is probably the funniest cat outta the bunch. And he’s always on time in the hotel lobby. That’s a good thing when you are on tour.
I on the other hand have lost so many things on tour so far. I lost my headphones the second day in Copenhagen, I’ll never see those again. I lost a small bag with my tooth brush, deodorant etc, I lost a razor the day I bought it. I lost a bottle of great Sauternes that I picked up in Mainz. I paid about 60EU which is around 100 dollars. I had to just give it away because I accidentally left it in my DJ bag and couldn’t bring it on the plane with me. I am planning to lose more also. I figure I’ll lose about another 300 dollars worth of stuff by the time I fly home. Let’s see, 160 gig iPod, Sony T100 camera, Palm Treo, Serato hardware, Stussy windbreaker, and while we’re talking name brands, my Vivienne Westwood wallet, which was a nice gift my ex-girlfriend Helena bought me. I hope that doesn’t go missing…

Tour Update, Sept. 22nd
September 22, 2007 by djdesign 
Ok, it’s official. We all feel like it’s been about two months so far, although it’s been…about a week. We all have either a cough, sinus allergies, or as Dez says, “my cartilage hurts.”
We’ve had some really good shows so far. Breda, in Holland was a festival, thousands of people showed up and we headlined. Can’t complain. Paris was off the hook. Soldout show. People were almost crying with excitement. There were people who knew all the words to practically everything. I’ve tried to take pics of as much as I can, but some places are really not worth the film or digital space. Last night in Leipzig the whole club was filled with cigarette smoke and I don’t think anybody knew who any of us were. When SV were doing the chorus to “I don’t Know” T3 and El would say, “I don’t know why the fuck I’m fucking with you, Say!” And they would repeat the whole thing including “say!” which was pretty funny. The DJ before us played a bunch of eighties and nineties hip-hop which pretty much ripped the roof off, but they didn’t even know Cold Steel from Kat’s set or Players from Slum. I told T3 that they are about ten years behind there so, come back for the 2014 tour and you should be classic by then. I have a bunch of pics to upload so I’ll start that now and let the people take a look…
