Daft Punk Was Playing At Their House

A bit belated, here's a mostly pictoral report of my first night as DJ...

This is the little corner I had all Saturday night, and I basically stayed back there the entire time from 10:30 p.m. till 4 in the morning...

The two birthday boys: the devil and the terrorist.

At first I was playing "non-hit" (but still good!) music for the very mixed crowd, like The Feeling, LCD Soundsystem, Stardust and The Faint...

There was the one moment where the party kicked into high gear and everyone started dancing -- and that was Madonna's "Burning Up."

These people couldn't get enough '80s or Hip-hop. I learned that if you play Michael Jackson, Jackson 5, Madonna, Gwen Stefani or Snoop Dogg, you can do no wrong at a house party. Luckily The Duke (the devil, above) gave me some Dr. Dre and Snoop the weekend before...

Other big hits during the night: The Human League, Ol' Dirty Bastard, New Order, Rick Astley and Franz Ferdinand...

Strobe...or Photoshop?

Mom?

This pumpkin apparently only cost $2, and it was a trooper throughout the night. You can see it in the lower left corner of a few of the photos...

Anyway, 'twas a good time had by all, and if anyone's looking for a mediocre DJ-for-hire, my fee is a few glasses of sangria (non-negotiable).
