Super fun being impromptu DJ last night at Slog Happy. I hesitate even to use the term “deejay”—because 1) what a gross set of phonemes, almost on the order of “snack” pronounced by people in Michigan, and 2) because I was basically just babysitting iTunes. There was a great crowd huddled around the bar—so crowded that I feared someone would get pickpocketed or groped. But y’all are good babies. Some of yins were even dancing and asking about the music.

Well, thanks to the www.izardry of our Last.fm account, I was able to dig up exactly what was played and in what order. And no, one dude—that was not “Popzão” I was playing.

I kept stepping back from what I was doing and realizing how strange it was to be playing so many club tracks at only 7:00, but then I convinced myself that it was like wearing white after labor day—no one cares but assholes. Luckily, at Slog Happy, everyone’s inner asshole is fairly hidden.
