2nd Big Chi Phi Gig

I've got to start catching up here, so I'm just going to postpone my Greenville pics blog and start getting down to business. I'll be sure to post those photos as soon as I get some more free time.

In the meantime, I'm going to be heavily focused on my upcoming DJ gig at Oglethorpe's Chi Phi fraternity. This will be the second official gig at their house (technically the car show was sponsored by another organization that just happened to have a Chi Phi member or two in it), and considering how my first night there was quite possibly my favorite DJ gig ever, I'm quite pumped about this one. Once again, I'll be spinning for a benefit instead of a regular party, most-likely due to the fact that they're only allowed one official party a month by the school and would prefer a hip-hop DJ for that. Regardless, I'm totally pumped about this one, despite the fact that I'll be officially spinning from 9-11 pm (which is really early) and then continuing on after that for a bit for just the fraternity members and a few friends, again due to school-wide party rules.

In addition to doing my typcial practice sets a few nights before the gig itself, I'm also preparing for this gig by burning some CDs of my DJ Mix renditions of the original tracks contained therein, the reasoning being that these new edited/arranged versions of these tracks generally strike me as more favorable for the dance floor than the originals themselves. Considering about 30 or so tracks from my recent mixes are probably applicable for this, I've got my work cut out for me. We'll see how much I end up getting done by Saturday night...
