I was curious as well...certainly this is a place bluestate should announce their events; check out the list of artists played:   Voxtrot, stellastarr*, We Are Scientists, The Gossip, Mylo, Annie, VHS or Beta, She Wants Revenge, Cut Copy, La Rocca and Hot Chip mixed with the likes of Rhianna and Kanye West

[you be betty]

is ANYONE here going to see Youth Group saturday?  it's an early show, so both can be hit up very easily...  

[reggie]

you guys play shitty music and think it's super ironic to spin the new hilary duff or ashlee simpson single. and only play white people approved hip hop acts. she wants revenge? vhs or beta? they suck too.

[seeking_irony]

i don't really have a response for anyone who doesn't like vhs or beta, she wants revenge, stellastarr* or any of the other indie-type bands we play. but as far as the pop/hip-hop goes, i play pop and mainstream hip-hop singles because i like them and think they're fun, not because i'm being ironic.

[reggie]

what is your user name again?

[Fico]

Amazing the number of utter dicks in here...some people can be really unpleasant..

be sure to post your next dj night so we can all pass judgement on your playlist...

reggie, regarding my user name/blog name/dj name: you do realize there are other kinds of irony besides playing shitty music, right? like in literature, current events, politics, film?

[LostSoul]

Get that piece of shit of yo head, Reggie.

[reggie]

guys, im just taking the piss here.
 i'll just sit back - with my  sweet blue state trucker hat, and chill out.
