grumbley day
spent a fuck ton of money on dinner last night and got too drunk/dinner was served too late that i fell asleep before i got to eat. :/ not in the best mood, and i find my friends from chicago are coming down, and there is nothing more in the world i would love than to dj for them, but im not. ive dj'ed one of six (soon to be one of seven) events we've had. i admit, i had other plans for two of them, but i wasnt invited to one of those two anyway. so much for rotating (i play 2, skip one, repeat) fun! :( Current Mood: pissed off | | Friday, October 30th, 2009 | | 12:15 pm |

I still have a couple of slots open for vendors for the Hocico show we are producing in Chicago, Weds. October 7. www.myspace. com/hocicoinchic ago I want to add some lesser known vendors and I need to get them from the midwest region so as not to cause them to have to travel so far. If anybody here has some leads for some cool artists and designers please e-mail me at djcoppertop@ gmail.com So far we have Crisiswear (Chicago), Cryroflesh (Missouri), Nocturnal Dominion (Chicago), and possibly Lix (Champaign, IL) lemme know! :) sheila? dave? | | Wednesday, August 26th, 2009 | | 8:34 pm |

dragon con?
thought i would pass this along: Help needed at Dragon*Con Ayria will be performing at Dragon*Con this Labor Day weekend (September 4 - September 7, 2009) in Atlanta, GA.(yes, I'll be there for the entire weekend to have fun and meet people and no I don't yet know the night of Ayria's performance). Dragon*Con is the largest multi-media, popular culture convention focusing on science fiction and fantasy, gaming, comics, literature, art, music, and film in the US and I'm honoured and excited to get to be a part of this event. Plus, look at the list on the website of the actors and authors that will be there! It's going to be an insanely fun weekend. Full Details are here: http://www.dragoncon.org/ I'm actually looking for helpers for DragonCon willing to do one or both of the following: 1. help at the merchandise booth (I'm looking for people that can do a shift(s) that fit their schedules - as little or as much time as you want to help for) 2. help promote Ayria's performance by passing out/dropping off flyers around the Con. All helpers will be compensated, with loads of merch from me (including new items I'm getting made up), plus maybe it'd be a good idea to do a lunch or dinner with everyone that wants to hang out so I could show my appreciation? So,if you can help out in any way, shape or form, please email me directly: jennifer@ayria.com so I can coordinate this all. Muchly appreciated! Sincerely, Jennifer AYRIA p.s. dave? you and lydia going? Current Mood: tired | | Monday, July 20th, 2009 | | 9:31 am |

oh, the irony isnt lost....
Wednesday, June 17, Mutiny at the Casbah presents... "The Return of Spectre and Copper AND Their Bastard Child DJ Caroline" details and flyer soon NO COVER doors @ 10PM Mutiny at the Casbah 6319 Guilford Ave. Indianapolis, IN RETRO and RETRO-FLAVORED industrial, EBM, synthpop, goth, and alternative electronica. You will love it. the ironic part? im as close to literally the bastard child of copper and spectre as there is. i started dj'ing because matt stopped, and coppertop taught me how to play. ::shrugs:: my real parents ignore me as well, so it makes sense.

cincy
so... where to begin.... went to cincinnati last night to check out their 'great' night. it wasnt a bad time, so before i go any further, i dont want to be misjudged.... ...but there were about 60/70 people, and of course, i came the one time things weren't as good as they usually are. isnt it funny how (i say it all the time as well, so im not doubting) you always come the one time things are slow? every night im not at a club, its the biggest night they have ever had. i dont get it. i then have gretchen tell me how i have the ability to beat match, but i cant/dont do it. im not trying to say i do, but wouldnt it help to at least LISTEN TO ONE OF MY SETS before making a comment like that? gretchen comes into the back room for about ten minutes at a time, maybe... maaaayybe once a night, usually not even that. is that asking too much? to ACTUALLY listen to someone play before you say what their abilities are? i talked to caroline as well, about gencon. she has been programmed by gretchen to think "lets just throw a great, simple dj party. everyone will love it!" something clicked in me, when she said that. i go to comicon every year, and yet, ive only been out to neo ONCE in five years. why? because its JUST a club night. i can come up for that whenever. i want/need something extra to make it worth my time to be tired the next day at the con. i dont know why, but hearing caroline parrot everything gretchen says made something snap in me. im not sure how to feel right now, but im pretty sure bitterness and rage are up top on the list at the moment. im growing weary of ONLY being able to do what gretchen says/wants. im not trying to say i want to run things, im just saying ANY input would be nice. in theory, gretchen IS listening to me about getting alternate acts for gencon, but we will see, as she said "for one night only". id settle for thursday and saturday only. sorry for the rant! its been a while now though.... ilan (sp?) was a REALLY great host though (he's dating gretchen, i think). he got us in the door, and even gave us drink tickets! it was nice! they had some dj playing who was from... philly? pittsburgh? something like that. and he kept playing with the effects on the mixer. i was REALLY not fond of that. there are times it works, and there are places you can make some really neat stuff happen, but as a general rule, the song works on its own, dont eff it up. it was yet another (kinetic fest was the other main time) case of 'im better than X, why cant i get one of those spots?' {gretchen doesnt think so though, it seems... ha!} that ive had recently. ::sigh:: Current Mood: tired | | Saturday, June 6th, 2009 | | 5:07 pm |
