W.W.J.Drink set-list

Rock & Roll Hotel was an amazing experience last night. Despite the weather and the holiday blues, this venue really treated me well and I had a fun time working with them. Bless their hearts, I hope to return some day soon! The best aspect of this set was that the venue genuinely promotes my style of eclecticism.

I decided to do something different this year for my Annual Xmas Party! It's the What Would Jesus Drink Xmas Recovery Dance Party! Woohoo!

I'm taking over ROCK & ROLL Hotel Bar on XMAS NIGHT (Fri 12/25)

'Tis the season to dance and lounge away the Christmas blues and exhaustion...And, nothing makes me happier than playing dance music for my friends.

So, come drink your feelings and spend a Friday Holiday night w/ people you adore. That person would be me... and BRING ANYONE you know who could use something warm and fuzzy to do Xmas night (keep that in context... or don't).

If you're in town Christmas night, come join me! Nothing would make me happier than to see all your faces (getting altered for Jesus and dancing your ass off).

1. It's the place to be.
2. It's totally FREE (obvi)
3. Dirt Cheap Xmas Drink Specials
4. Great Dancing (Mikey spinning)
5. Xmas Recovery, as Jesus intended

The Rock & Roll Hotel is located at 1353 H Street NE, between 13th and 14th streets NORTHEAST. Read more info on directions, shuttle service, and parking at: http://www.rockandrollhoteldc.com/portal/directions/

**PS: Yeah, I know it's out in NE, but it's the same place MIXTAPE often is, so it's not that far out there!

friday fun - the blizzard edition

So what is there to do on this snow-doomed evening? Well, as The White Witch plans to destroy the District of Narnia, there is hope in at least two different places. There's Cobalt's 30-Degrees Lounge and El Rincon in Adam's Morgan. DJ MAJR will be spinning at the former in the lounge DJ booth during the 11p-12a open bar, and thereafter. At El Rincon, Aaron Riggins is taking over a gaytino drag bar for his birthday. I'm sure it will be fun.

COBALT / 30 Degrees

Open Bar 11 p.m.-12 a.m.

Be Yourself

to prove i don't hate the b*tch

So, I totally don't hate Lady Gaga. Yes, she's overrated. Yes, she's sometimes a bit of a red fish-blue fish lyricist. And, yes, she sings an octave below the record when she performs. But, as far as her album cuts, she has at least 10 tracks that I consider either tolerable or simply excellent. Feel free to download the megamix I just made, and tell me how you feel about it. Or, shut the f*ck up and admit you like Lady Goodenoughforrightnow as much as I do.

(takes only a couple minutes to download)

Enjoy the GAGAMEGAMIX

BUT!- Because I love a good flopping, here's your video of zen... enjoy Lady Fallsonherass

even though I want one too...

...this message is brought to you by people with Facebook Fan Pages.

a movie must see

... Focus Features is the only good film company left. I'm convinced.

monster gets 5 grammy nods

for all you gagaholics

also, the song she goes into ("Teeth") is pretty great... you should own it.

listen here

get your kylie on

i've got the batteries...

la riots @ ultrabar tonight!

LA Riots, whom I consider the apex of remix artists, are going to be at Ultrabar tonight! I am going to be there, along with a few other folks, in what is sure to be a great set by a fantastic DJ duo. These guys, when I saw them in NYC last year, made me dance like an epileptic hooker on laced weed. It was delicious.

Check out their music on their MySpace (yeah it sorta still exists), including the tracks I like to play often:

in case you were wondering...

i agree.

i like my party with a hot pink center...

...but RAW will do. We here at SHIFT think that Raw is a good thing, and you should too. It's part of the ever-growing debauch-appreciation in DC that isn't borderline asinine. Come dance with DJ MAJR, himself, on Friday as he packs into the sweatstack that is the Green Lantern with a couple hundred fellow masochists.

DJs Van Horn and Todd, providing the RAW soundtrack sidestep the mainstream and opt for underground and alternative electro, disco, and new wave. Last month they played Boney M, In Flagranti, Ssion, Bobby O, Neon Workout, Shit Robot, Patrick Cowley, and more. Check out the full set list and listen to mixes. This month, the RAW promoters are working to make the party even nastier. There will be more explicit video installations, special guests, rewards for people who are willing to take off clothing, and other dirty surprises. As always, guests are encouraged to wear leather, fetish, retro gay gear, or anything else that feels

RAW.
