record it dude... i know im not gonna be able to make that. but i want to hear it.
how is is seattle? throw me a lineon skype if you get a chance!

i was in the station with him, the mix went fine.... but man we had some huge equipment problems!

shelby brought his serato equipment and laptop with him, and some vinyl just in case that stuff didn't work....

we were using a crappy radio station owned set of decks and mixer. shelby was on at 3am sharp. shelby was setting up serato around 2:30 am and nothing was working. he fiddled with it until about 2:50am and decided to just go vinyl, because we knew that would DEFINITELY work. that was a dumb assumption.

we re-setup the cables so serato was out of the picture, and then with less then 5 minutes to start... the mixer problems became apparent. numerous dead channels/inputs, along with having to force mono out to the radio feed. also multiple nobs and sliders on the mixer either didn't work or produced crazy results, or gave huge ammounts of feedback. the mixer was definitely broken. oh and also with less then 5 minutes to go we had to switch out 1 of the decks. it was broken also.... for some reason it wasnt producing any sound output, even on good mixer channels.

once he started though.... yeah it went alright.... unfortunately because we had only seconds until we hit dead air, we kind of forgot to setup the recording of the set.

yeah the station's gear is GHETTO, last few times weve done live mixing on the show we had our own gear, not again unless we bring our own or until the station gets new stuff.

Equipment problems suck, especially live. I know of "some" dj's who bring a fresh mix pre-recorded on CD's JUST IN CASE.

haha pat... i love you, man your such an encouragement to me, always there to say WOO GO SHELBY! not too many people do that, and it is always nice to hear because its not something i hear all the time.
