  • Next message: DJQoolMarv@aol.com: "Address removal"

    I do know these guys and apologize for them, I don't even send my own DJ
    schedule to the list anymore because of spam backlash. I'll write a simple
    note as well as speak with those guys to remove the acid-jazz mailing list
    address from their listings which seems to go out several times weekly.

    Note: The "Ladies Night" promotion is something that is as old as my 31 years
    -- it simply started as a way for promoters to get more women to come to
    their parties by discounting admission or offering free drinks, a flower or
    something like that. My Mom went to "Ladies Nights" with my aunts when I was
    little. Mostly a phenomenon of African-American parties from the 60's. I can
    understand how referring to a woman as a "lady" in our contemporay society
    could rub someone the wrong way, but the "Ladies Night" theme was always a
    celebratory one.

    I'm still here although I don't contribute much recently...still DJing around
    New York on the regular, occasionally a Giant Step gig, DJing in the UK with
    the Rae & Christian family...Erik, will be in Sweden to play in 2001 probably
    with someone from the Rae & Christian camp.

    Below in my e-mail signature is my 800 number for gig info and message
    leaving so if anyone on the list gets to New York scribble it down call it
    and you'll find me.

    What secret is there in music which attracts all those who listen to it? It
    is the rhythm which is created. It is the tone of that music which tunes the
    soul, and raises it above the depression and despair of everyday life in this
    world. If one knew what rhythm is needed for a particular individual in his
    trouble and despair, what tone is needed, and to what tone that person's soul
    should be raised, then one could heal a
    person with music.
