Yeah I do NOT miss hauling a fat recycling crate miles through the muck at for those long festival sets… I think I felt my forearm muscle rip a bit on the way out one time *shudders.

Is there a cable knit sweater pic I didn’t find on Google or something? We’re pretty different looking. I WISH I was that handsome! Lol

This was in Ottawa, but I was a regular at raves and undergrounds in Toronto and especially Montreal throughout the 90s

That’s what’s UP!
When I was 15 any DJ over 30 was like an ALIEN to me lol… I NEVER thought I’d even make it to 40. I figured the collapse would have happened by now and we’d all be Mad Maxing it ;)
…and then there’s guys like David Rodigan. I saw him ROCK a crowd of like 15 000 people at age 70, dancing like a maniac, climbing up on the DJ table and giving this epic history of Jamaican music set from the 1960s up to the 2010s.
It was LIFE CHANGING.
I want to be like David Rodigan when I’m 70.
I’ll never stop!
