Well I made it back safe and sound from Charlotte. I was there playing with Andy Moor from the UK. It was nice to get out of the Canadian weather into the sun and heat the southern US had to offer. Here’s the view from my hotel of the Charlotte skyline.

We had a really nice dinner at a Japanese restaraunt near the club. Debated for a while on the differences between US, UK, and Canadian beer, cooking oils used in different countries, and why our waiter couldn’t understand that we wanted chicken instead of steak (since there was no steak).

The club was nice and full of some serious potential. We had an issue though right before Andy hit the stage, as the opening DJ blew a breaker: rather blew it so bad he melted it, so the power was killed to the DJ booth. After a quick deliberation we decided to move the CDJ’s into the side room and Andy took over in there.

They managed to re-route the power in time for me to come on so I stayed in the mainroom. Turned out Andy didn’t want to stop playing though so people weren’t sure what room to go to. So we ended up having people running between rooms. Then we had people relaying to Andy and I what the other was playing so it became a battle to see who could have more people in either room at a given time. It was great fun and we ended off finishing at the same time (and a lot of vodka) around 5:00am.

I was sad to leave the warm weather to return to Canada but I had a really great time, the people were fantastic, and hope to return soon.
