DJ obsessions at The Winchester

If you didn't get the memo, I'm the new Friday night DJ at The Winchester. Normally I'll be on from 6-8SLT, but last night I was on from 7-11. Ha! It was really just supposed to be 7-9 but I was having so much fun that I couldn't stop.

Last night's theme was obsessions - I played a ton of songs I am or have been obsessed with at some point in life and I took lots of requests of songs the crowd The Win are obsessed with - and made them share their story. I learned that Nica Oh went to a Pixies show in a U-Mass sweatshirt just for them; that playing both the Damned AND the Jayhawks won't make Lanark go to sleep even if he's bitching about how he needs to go to sleep; that Cate is now hooked on the Velvet Teen cos Jasper plays them so much; that Kasabian wants me to play something I hate every time I don't have one of his requests; Sjo is semi-emo but does not *like* Iron Maiden; and I already knew but heard again how much PitPat is obsessed with Control, the Joy Division movie.

I also learned that my mic wasn't working with Nicecast yet. Oopsie.
