I don’t know if it’s the alignment of the stars, my devilish good looks, or the way I play Milli-Vanilli…either way I have scooped up some pretty snazzy gigs for the weekend of 4th of July. Although I will miss attending one of my valley friends BBQ’s, wearing a red-white-and-blue speedo, a “I Heart America” crop top, and drinking Hamm’s beer until I black out at 6:30pm, I am excited to do a bit of traveling on the extended weekend. What I am NOT looking forward to is the drive (yes I drive to Vegas because I’m cheap) home on the 4th. I’m guestimating a travel time of 10 hours…and I’m not kidding! READ MORE
The front-of-house engineer on the New Kids on the Block tour needed music to play before the show started. Since I’m a musical genius I threw together a 30 minute mix to coordinate with the countdown clock on stage. I didn’t put too much time into it as they needed it in a jiffy, so there’s no scratches…some are full songs, yada yada yada. Regardless it’s a fun potpourri of old, radical music. I hope you likey!
So this past weekend, June 17-19th 2010 commemorated the last weekend of the New Kids on the Block Casi-NO tour! There are three things that, prior to this tour, I never would have expected to happen: 1) I never would have thought I would become the DJ for NKOTB! 2) I never thought I would perform at Radio City Music Hall in NYC and 3) I never thought I would perform with NKOTB at Radio City Music Hall in NYC and actually miss the tour when I got home!

It’s been about a year since I got on this “networking kick”. Before that I felt like I had hit a ceiling on how far I could take this DJ career, but after reading Keith Ferrazzi’s “Never Eat Alone” I realized that I was just doing things the wrong way. I was trying to advance my career by myself, in hopes that one day I could tell the world to shove it when in actuality you need a support system (I like to call it my “hip hop gangsta posse”) to grow with.

I’ve gone from SOB to GBC to NKOTB! Weird, right? Well as weird as it seems, it has been dudical to be touring with the biggest boy band of my generation! To many, it’s sort of unknown what my role is on the tour. I’m sure it seems as if I’m just standing there pretending to do junk simply because i’m one of the most handsome men on the planet (next to Newman from Seinfeld of course). Well in fact, that is true only 75% of the time. READ MORE
