I put a flash on the XPro1 last night and used it as a glorious point and shoot party camera. Here's what I found in the memory card this morning...
There's a congregation of wine sippers here tonight called Planet of the Grapes.

MP3J DJ AlBow works back in the far regions of Skatepark of Tampa with me that we refer to as Innetech. We make the computers organize our inventory and stuff. This week, Alex found out he's going to South Africa with us. That now makes two people I know that get flown around the world to push play. DJ Wade couldn't make this trip so AlBow is on it last minute.

Lurk More: Bands and Shows
My dad made me classic rock and top 40 mixtapes when I was a little kid, which got me into making my own by recording the radio. I'm glad he planted that love of music into me early. Discovering hip hop later made it solid. I wish I could go to more shows. Sometimes I document them here.
