Hey, this is Jelani Yorker and I’ve given some thought to what the summer internship that I’m seeking could entail. What I am really looking for is any opportunity to have more performance experience, but I understand that there are DJs with a greater following already on hand. I am willing to do anything from coat check at U Street Music Hall to filling any last minute warm up spots. I just need to get my foot into the door of the music environments I highly respect, and be able to stop having to find gigs that I feel awful about. I know that you are a busy man so I hope I am not asking for too much, but I want to make the most out of this opportunity. I’m heading back to Michigan for college on Sunday so we might not be able to talk in person, but I hope to hear from you soon.
