Mark Your Calendars ...

... it's the Ten Friends Annual Labor Day Weekend Party! So much fun to be had by all.


The DJ: Mick Boogie!

The venue: Sunset Lounge (in the Warehouse District) in downtown Cleveland

The day and date: Sunday, August 31, 2008

This is a really nice set; it starts out kind of mellow w/some Neo-Soul hangin in the background along w/some complimentary beverages and hor d'oeuvres.
Then as the crowd begins to thicken, the vibe adjusts: the music tempo increases and it is all good. The music is usually a mix of old school and new jams. The party-goers are out to have a good time and it shows.

Check it out if you get the chance. Shout to Arnold Hines for promoting and coordinating.

My Boy Mick Boogie

I think I'd like to say that I am Mick Boogie's biggest fan; actually, I am not his most vocal fan, but he knows that I look out for him ...

Mick is an incredibly talented dj. He knows how to work a crowd. His old school sets are evil; women arrive at parties all cute and sparkly and they leave nearly broke down and heaving from dancing for hours at a time ... it really is a sight to see and a good time. I usually close down a party when Mick is spinnng.

So how about Mick getting some love from someone other than me - oh, other than me and his girl. But how about LRG! That is big! In the hip hop world, endorsing product is a huge move; a power move. It means that you are a mover and a shaker. Yeah, Mick is a mover and a shaker. This is a good look for him.
