Not tonight, you're not on the list...
I'm currently digging the guestlist/blacklist meme that's been floating about, so I thought I'd release my guestlist/blacklist for 2009:
- Guest List:

- Health care reform initiatives.
- Graphic Novel movie adaptations.
- Spectrasonics audio applications.
- Social Media integration apps for everthing.

back with the flavor...
Holiday mixes are back on my mix page, www.djdrue.com.
I haven't really made a new one in a while... might work on one when I'm on vacation at home.
enjoy. -

Updates and what not...

However, the never ending parade of drunken partiers and art cars, made us decide to leave when we couldn’t get any sleep. We left about 3 am on Monday, which turned out to ( Read more... ) -
Burning Man 2009: Day 7 - The Temple Burn -- I Get It Now
By now, the playa dust was everywhere. Everything I owned that was black had now turned a pale gray.

Previous visitors had told me the weather was much better this year, so I don’t think I should complain about it. Nevertheless, I was annoyed with the condition of the ( Read more... )
