Conflict of Interest Saturday Knights on a Tuesday?
posted by on February 13 at 11:37 AM
This evening, at the former Bad Juju Lounge—now a fully integrated part of Neumo’s—I’ll be warming the place up on the turntables alongside Brian Webber and DJ Suspence of the Saturday Knights as part of the Capitol Hill Artwalk. Suspence has asked me to play “hip-hop / or the sweetest love songs you can think of (should be some slow dancing),” whereas Segal guesses I’ll “be rocking [my] brand of party shit.” I’m still working on my set list, so it’s not too late for other requests. There will be some photography on display, and free food and drinks courtesy of Light in the Attic records. It starts at 6pm, and it’s free.
In less conflicted events:
Tonight’s edition of Oscillate at the Baltic Room is a benefit for DJ Kadeejah Streets, who tore his achilles tendon not long ago and is uninsured. Guests include: RAMIRO, DJ COLLAGE, JEN WOOLFE, J-SUN, TEKGNOSIS, with live visuals by SCOTT K. JAMES. It starts at 10pm, and it’s $6 to help a brother out.
Awesome. LitA is killin' it.
Eric: That was Suspence's guess; I was just quoting him. I was hoping for an all-Tussle set from youse...
Hehe...how about an all-Tussle-lockgroove set?
wow, way to plug your own fucking event rather than actually report on things going on in the music scene. the stranger used to be a great resource for people into the local music scene, and now it's this completely laughable, self-aggrandizing bullshit. dude, your job is to report the music scene, not plug your own dumb ass shit.
so much for ethical journalism.
Man, if only we had a "Conflict of Interest" tab I could've used to label this post, then Kurt could've just skipped it.
Anyway, both these events, and both Oscillate and Light in the Attic, are "things going on in the music scene." Sorry if you were pining for grunge instead.
Sounds like someone woke up on the wrong side of cock rock.
Explain to me where the conflict is.
FITS is one of the best DJ's in town. He's also one of the best writers in town. The Bad Juju sounds like a cool event. I wouldn't have known about it otherwise.
All these people get so pissed off. If it wasn't this, they'd be pissed at something else.
since when is the slog/line out considered journalism? kurt, have you read this blog before? and why so cranky?
Eric,
I doubt your editor would allow Trent to pimp his band in the pages of the Stranger or online, so why should you not get held to the same standards?
I think Kurt has a point. For events you are a part of it would seem a little less self-serving if you'd let other people recomend them.
Fuck'ed if I care, I'm coming for free pizza and good music.
Can I make a request? "It's Not You, It's the E Talking" by Soulwax.
Thanks
the new jack swing set was the biz...was that you spinning afterwards?
