ADRIAN DOES STUFF

Seriously. Seems like I'm just too fucking busy with Life to bother with WRITING about Life. Which kinda sucks, because there's a lot of cool shit going on with Life.

Okay, here's the brief update:

We made a bunch of new mashups. Six in total, actually. We just went on a bootlegging rampage, which we needed to do, since we hadn't exactly been very productive lately in the mashup creation department. Here's what we made:

Sexy Peek-A-Boo - Justin Timberlake vs. Siouxsie & the Banshees
Promiscuous Walk - Nelly Furtado vs. Aerosmith vs. Run-DMC
Nelly Furtado's Crazy - Nelly Furtado vs. Gnarls Barkley
You Believe Me All Night Long - Cher vs. AC/DC
Love Shack On Wheelz - B-52's vs. My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult
Gold Lion Tale To Tell - Yeah Yeah Yeahs vs. Love and Rockets

You can also find them all at www.RebelDJs.com.

Bootie Bootie Bootie, rockin' everywhere ... besides Bootie SF (with DJs BC, Lenlow, and Adam Balm from Boston's Mash Ave!) and Bootie LA, we also did a couple Bootie-style parties for corporate clients ... hell, we even DJed at a trade conference! Also, been working on launching Bootie Paris, Bootie NYC, and Bootie San Diego. It's all in the works, and very very exciting! We're even in the midst of trademarking the Bootie name and logo. Frickin' cuh-razy. How has it come to this? The whole bootleg mashup DJing and throwing parties thing was just supposed to be something we were doing because we thought it was fun and new and interesting ... and now it's somehow turning into an actual career. Funny how life goes...

We got a really nice article written about us the SF Weekly. It was for their Music Awards Issue ... we were nominated in the "Best DJ" category, and we spun for the VIP reception at the awards ceremony at The Warfield. No, we didn't win ... but neither did Mike Relm, who is fucking amazing, and we would have been quite happy to lose to him. Instead, some dance music DJ we'd never heard of from KALX Berkeley won. Oh well... at least we got that nice article.

 
Smash-Up Derby played at the Cow Palace! Yup, the same stage I saw Rush, Nirvana, and Queensryche! We played the Exotic Erotic Ball, and it was a blast! Got to try out my new confetti cannons too ... I think they'll work better in the DNA Lounge than the cavernous Cow Palace. Anyway, got to wear a corset from Dark Garden and rock out. BTW, that's the SAME corset that Budgie from Sioxsie & the Banshees/The Creatures has worn!

Good stuff coming up ... one of our bootleg heroes, Eric Kleptone from The Kleptones, is guest DJing at both Bootie parties, in LA and SF. And we've got a bunch of rowdy Brits coming to San Francisco for the Bootie British Invasion, doing Bastard USA in the upstairs lounge. Can't wait!

And then we're heading to New York for a couple DJ gigs, in anticipation of doing Bootie NYC. Woo-hoo!

There's the update ... like I said, lots of good stuff ...

Been busy, as usual, so no blog update in a month. Ooops, sorry. Life keeps getting in the way of Writing About Life.

Got my journal from this year's Burning Man in the works, along with some musings regarding our Bootie French Revolution party, not to mention Smash-Up Derby at the Folsom Street Fair.

In the meantime, though, here are some pix. A 3000 word blog entry right here!

Visors are the new cowboy hats. Me at Burning Man, showing off my handywork. PDFs of all of this year's issues of Piss Clear are archived on the web site -- click here -- and scroll down.

My favorite pic from September's Bootie party, with DJ Zebra on stage surrounded by, um ... some very happy club people! One of my favorite guest DJ sets ever.

I am totally airborne in this photo. I love jumping off of drum risers! Playing at Folsom Street Fair was so much fun ... and Trixxie got us hooked up with totally gorgeous Stormy Leather corsets for this show. I want to wear mine ALL the time. I got to pretend like I was fucking a furry on stage while singing "I wanna fuck you like an animal" -- but I'm saving those pix for my next blog entry. But you can get a sneak peek here. 

More later. For realz.
