yoo let me tell you. yesterday, Saturday has been the first day i club in the last 4years. back in 2004-6 i was paying to get in clubs and all that stuff. wasting money for admission n etc.
last night when i met up w/ my friend fabi i knew from 2004. we were waiting for "friends" who we were going to the party with + they were driving. when the car arrived, there were 3 people in the car, a guy in the back w/ me and my friend fabi. then the guy in the front w/ his girlfriend. after driving to the club for 20 minutes. i LEARNED that the two guys already in the car are brothers and they were going to both DJ the opening set of Patrick M. I was so shocked cause my friend fabi didn't tell me anything about that. And the girl in the front, she was in a rock band, singer etc. and then my friend fabi played a cd/ song that he wrote and sang(r&b) that everyone liked and i was impressed cause he never told me about that. so i'm in a car with 4 artists. and that was crazy.
when we got to the club. we were already on the DJ guestlist(more of a record co. guest list which was the VIP guest list). we went in to setup and sound-test the club [WOW I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS @ PACHA-NYC , LAST NIGHT, one of the most popular clubs that everyone talks about in NYC]
We went to the DJ BOOTH on the MAIN FLOOR. shit was hot. i was watching them spin. we had access to the VIP FLOOR, right up from the DJ BOOTH. it was sick. and i didn't pay 1 penny to get in. i placed my coat in the DJ BOOTH. which there were only 5 coats, which was our 5 coats ONLY !! cool again !!!. i saw my friend fabi say whats up to some secruity guards, promoters and people who throw the party at pacha. and i was like DAMMNNN !!!. (in my head)
coatcheck and admission to the club = $80.
i got free drinks, free coat hanger, free admission.
there was a table w/ drinks next to the DJ BOOTH, free drinks baby.
I HAD THE BEST TIME OF MY LIFE LAST NIGHT.
it turns out that this friend fabi i have known since 2004. has a bunch of friends who are all promoters. so he always gets text to his phone of parties going on and he gets the guestlist info on his phone as well so he gets in free in every club he goes too.
sometimes my friend fabi is required to go to certain parties, because he is one of the main dancers in his group. like when he dances, people start to make a circle and watch him dance, and i always knew he dance cause he wud show me some tricks when he would be over my house and i put some music on.
10pm, we left the dj booth me, fabi and the girl who was dating one of the DJ's and we went to the VIP lounge to chill with some other people.
I LEARNED SOMETHING HERE.......
The girl taught me some business information, about the guest-list, like. the reason her bf and his brother are spinning tonight is because the club owners(or whoever) knows that when he spins there, he brings a lot of people to the club w/ his guestlist. and the way they keep track of this is, every DJ has their own guestlist. and at the end of the party or whenever, they will check which dj had the most used guest-list. and those are who are looked as the "valuable dj" so that is who they want to spin at their clubs. so that was good information i took in. and MOST OF THE people who were on his guest-list were all dancers, so there was a lot of people dancing, and then you have the regular-people who were probably not on the guest-list who was standing and watching these people dance.
LAST NIGHT WAS THE FIRST TIME I CLUB IN 4YRS, AND IT WAS THE BEST EXPERIENCE EVER.
thank you
(the DJ's of the opening set i was riding with was = The Bermudez Brothers)
