You know how I do it. Newports to my left, coffee to my right. Monique Bingham in my ear ( I think I owe THAT chick some money).
April has always been my favorite month....why? Well, cause its my birthday! My 45th has been the BEST EVER! Not only that, I have heard some INCREDIBLE music. I told you all about Norm Talley, THAT MAN IS A BEAST!! ( OK, so I forgot to add that part in my Blog about him)
HEAT brought Chico DeBarge to TV( they just keep getting hotter) - I expect even bigger events from that FAB group of folks. -stay tuned.
The Men in Black Suits was SO nice, all the mens dressed in their Sunday best ( yes MENS)!!!
Sonic Natives, Heavy Hitters, oh the list goes on and on and ON!
Up next..The Launch party for Fresh House Promotions- Roberts River Walk ( she does it ALL) Poetry, music, etc.. look for big things coming from this lil lady. When I tell you the line up for this event is STELLAR, please, please, PLEASE believe me THIS one is a, NOT to be missed event. Its that I-94 connection ya know.
Some D'Vine Ones are coming in- L!V, to give it to you the ONLY way they know how... RAW and REAL. Now I've heard both Fifty Millz and MzNicky, this time I get to hear her, teacher, mentor, husband, lover, and friend.. Brett Morrison. If he is HALF as good as his wife our ears should be in for a musical treat.
The Heavy Hitters of House- Hazels Place,.. Now this place has the DJ styling of my VERY 1st boyfriend, Mr. Tink Thomas ( I know his government name) - LOL. He and I started out as two lil kids and a record player. Our song.. Strawberry Letter 23. That 3rd grade love is always the best love.. ( yeah, I crack myself up sometimes with the things I say). Ok, its not just Tink ( government name withheld) You have Larry Vibemaker Miller, & Nervous Breakdown. Various special guest. Very nice spot!
Girls Gone Vinyl - L!V, Jenny Lafemme, The Godmother.. Stacey Hotwaxx Hale, Angela DJLC Vincent. Those ladies are bringing in Lisa Shaw ( Salted Music) This night is going to be EPIC..don't hear about it, BE about it! Support, GIRLS- We run this Motha!
Fabulous First Fridays -TV, Since this group of professionals started this monthly event it has been standing room ONLY. Be comfortable, Be FABULOUS! Kevin Cosey (my alum) Tony Hill (my realtor) Bruce Bailey ( my play cousin- in my head) & Maria Beth Stanfield ( my soon to be Facebook friend) keep the crowd right where it needs to be- HYPED!!!
The Sonic Natives Grasshopper Underground, Every 2nd Sunday they give you...Tunes That Matter. I am very proud to be a part of this fine group of DJs. Allan C. Ester Jr., Earl Mixxin McKinney, & The "Boston Banger" Chris Kidbibz Habibian. Let me take a moment to explain about this Kidbibz. NEVER have I seen a guy rock the vinyl like this youngin. ( well I have but I'll get to that Cat in another Blog)- one of my personal favs...ANYWHO!! Chris came to Detroit and left me in complete awe of his talent and skill. That boy can go from Disco, to Progressive, to House with ease. In my opinion.. to be ask to play with Al and Earl means a helluva lot. He is going to be MASSIVE- stay tuned ya'll.
House Headquarters L!V, well...well..well! Three days of unfiltered House, all genres of House, all day House, at Detroit's Urban Hang Suite! I'm not going to say too much about that party. Just BE there. If ya miss it...SUCKS to be YOU! The line up is SICK!!!
We Meet Again - (sorry I'm not sure where this event will be), The Chosen Few and the Chosen One's..NUFF SAID! Call ya peoples and ya job(s) let em know you will be FAR TOO tired from this gig, to come in to work, kids aint gettin NO breakfast the day after this party. Church fans will be required!
DEMF, I repeat.. DEMF. Have you booked your hotel? Did you get extra linen for your guest? Have you made your list of all the parties you are going to hit? Most importly..Is Got Mixes going to be open for those late night parties?..my guess, YUP! Kevin Dysard, get ready cause folks are going to be at your door.
Before I close out, I started this Blog with a shout out to myself. I'm ending it with a dedication to one of my VERY best friends. Ya see, Ive lost people in my life before, but I gained another angel on my shoulder, a guardian. "Johnny Ed" ( John E. Macon) you will be missed. You are LOVED by so many. You will live on, thank you for leaving a living part of you. Taryn. We will be here for her. She will NEVER be without!
I got the BEST birthday gift ever, I got my BEST friend, and one of three people that can bring a smile to my face every time! Ya see the best gifts are not always those you can open. They are the ones that keep on giving. They are the ones you have great memories with, new beginnings. They are the ones you can not be without, and they can not be without you.
I lost someone, I gained a better understanding with someone. Through it all I,
Let The Music Play
