Pink Saturday Set List

As I mentioned in my post about Pride, DJing at Pink Saturday was one of the very best experiences I've had in a long time. It was my first time on the decks in public in almost six months, and the first time I've played a set that was exclusively on CDs. Since a couple people have asked, here's what I played:

Time to Jak - A Guy Called Gerald
Magneto - Reference
Modus Operandy - Original Mix (Digital Only) - Roland M. Dill
D-Day - Original Mix - Marc Antona
Back - Original Mix - Ben Klock
Nebula - L.exx Aurel
Unbreakable - Exercise One Fragile Mix - Sweet N Candy
Hold My Hand - Dubfire Dub - UNKLE
Krook - Hugg & Pepp
Ask Your Druggist (Lutzenkirchen Remix) - Andreas Henneberg
Half Truth - Original Mix - Arne Michel
Beautiful Life - Gui Boratto

I hope to have a recorded version of this available in the next week or so.

I'm really looking forward to the upcoming Fuck Shit, Let's Dance (FSLD) on Friday, July 25th at Deco. it's going to be just me and the Lord Kook this time, and we're really, really gonna do the techno night we've always wanted to do. Sooooo, if you see stuff in here that you like, come check us out.

Upcoming Event: Fuck Shit, Let's Dance! at Pride

So by now I'm sure you've all figured out that, since we're doing Mr. at Mighty, we won't be doing our regular monthly at Deco (seems arrangements were made months ago for Starfucker to have our gay pride Friday - but then, a "best cock contest" and naked twister is more in the spirit of pride than techno). However, that doesn't mean we won't be reprayzentin' - in addition to Lord Kook playing at Mr. on Friday, on Saturday night the FSLD banner will be up in the parking lot of Walgreen's on 18th Street for Pink Saturday, with sets from Neonbunny, Neco D, Lord Kook, and myself, and then on Sunday Lord Kook will be DJing on the Shadowplay stage from noon until 1PM (and I expect I'll be lounging in a shady space, nursing an epic hangover). Soooooo, if you don't make it to Mr., come by and see us for Pink Saturday or at the Shadowplay stage, we'll be happy to see you.

Oh, and we will be back at Deco in July, with a night of minimal and techno from Lord Kook and yours truly all night long. Rave, rave, rave against the coming of the light.

Your Saturday Guide for June 23, 2007 - Pink Saturday

Okay, so there is one event that dominates all the others, and that's Pink Saturday in the Castro. Yes, it's a huge crush, yes, it's dealing with humans on a scale I don't even like to contemplate, but, yes, it's something you really should do just to think about the grand spectacle of it all, and how unique this is to San Francisco. I've lived in lots of different places, in both the US and abroad, and there's really nothing like this anywhere else. BUT, when you've grown tired of the crowd, there's some other fun stuff to check out as well.

Bar Nights and Weeklies

Spunk
This new party at The Cinch features "electro-burlesque," "filthy go-go boys" and "circus acts." Well, that's quite a bit of entertainment right there. With DJ Malakai, I believe that they're going for an electro groove, and this is a fun place to hang out on the Polkstrasse, so go check it out for something different.
9PM - Close (whatever that means)
No cover listed
1723 Polk between Clay and Washington

Drunk and Horny
Easy walking distance from the Pink Saturday festivities. Get drunk, flirt with boys, and dance to good-time party standards. Reliable, easy-going, and a short stumble home.
$5
9PMish - 2.00AM (with maybe an afterparty)
Underground SF, 424 Haight Street x Webster

Monthlies and One-Offs

Afterglow
A fundraiser for the Comfort and Joy camp. With electro-house techno-funk deep-groove beats courtesy of yours truly, Neco D, Lord Kook, and the Honey Sound System (DJ Pee Play and Ken Vulsion), and midnight drag show featuring Raya Light (Miss Trannyshack), Ultra, Miss Nix, Vida de Voe, and Miss Black Rock City (you wouldn't believe the things she had to do to get that sash!) Private underground location, "Shortbus" playspace, the fun starts at 11PM and goes until you decide you're strong enough to wander off to Pride on Sunday. Note that this is an "alcohol-free" event.

Upcoming Event: Afterglow Fundraiser for Comfort and Joy, Saturday June 23 (Pink Saturday)

Okay, I'll 'fess up that Comfort and Joy is my Burning Man camp (even though I'm not going this year), and myself (DJ Pup), Kitty (Neco D), and The Boyfriend (Lord Kook) are spinning the hooj choons for this party. So if you want to finally see the faces that go with the names, have a lot of fun dancing to synthpop, electrohouse, and minimal techno, catch some crazy drag antics, and maybe (maybe) get a little frisky, then by all means, come check it out:

UPDATE: We are thrilled, thrilled to announce the addition of the Honey Sound System (DJ Pee Play, Kenvulsion, and associates) to the DJ line-up. The boys will be coming on at 4AM for a tag-team chill match that will take us through to the rising sun of Pride Sunday. Wheeeeeee!
