ask Dan Selzer!

more or less than your hair

i used to work with a plant bar habitue and i'd meet up with him there sometimes. he actually lived in the same building, one floor above.

did he live with Neil, Irish ex-pat, Plant Bar manager, who opened up Tuck Shop?

why am I suddenly getting the weird memory that I got into a big fight with you because you were throwing a matchbook over my head. Was that you?

he lived with another irishman and was tight with d0m K., but i don't think i was around for many of your sets. i certainly never tried to light you on fire!

anth0ny from r1 told me that Hanger Bar is actually a bar by night and fashion boutique by day. i thought that was awfully pretentious until i realized it as a pretty clever use of space.

btw, dan, ihus in town tomorrow and performing with sasha (in flagranti, ja)..email me if yr interested cause i prolly cant go

I'm going to DJ in DC tomorrow.

There's never been a smarter idea then having your friends live in the apt upstairs from the bar, and even making said friend the managers.

have fun; thnks for making memory happen!

oh no - r0ry?

Dan,
Did you take advantage of Lincoln's B-day suspension of Alternate Side of the Street Parking today?

I didn't have to. My girlfriend, who's car it is after all, drives to school on tuesdays.

do you think this font would work for your nite? i don't

I think anything would work, but glad you're asking because I just ask jeremy to type up the info to fw to you so you can make us an online flyer. expect it soon.

ha. done.

q: if jon williams de-indexed this thread, how come i found it on google?

by the way, i was trying to remember that crazy all-in-one mixer/HD/decks/fx device made by, i think DENON, that dan was talking about at some point

q: why you googling me?

The Denon HD-2500. I have to say I'm torn now because Pioneer FINALLY came out with a new CDJ, the 400, which has USB for playing songs off a hard-drive. I'm not sure why it's so much cheaper then the CDJ 800 and 1000, what features is it lacking? And you'd still need to buy two of them, whereas with the denon you buy one unit and each platter can load songs from the same drive. Still, you look cooler scratching with the Pionner then with the Denon's goofy little disks.

new ilx-doesn't deindex properly

dan i was trying to google for the Denon thing and I knew you'd mentioned it! so i used the "site:ilx" thing and typed in "denon".. this thread was returned.

sorry i mean i typed denon and "dan selzer"

Dan -

Will you play any Velvets @ Environ party Friday? That would be awesoem.

Wait - I meant "Saturday"

nothing but velvets saturday.

actually I'm going on really early when nobody will be there so I probably could get away with it.

but I won't.

Check out Viva Radio Naked Fridays friday afternoon for a Morgan Geist/Dan Selzer DJ set preview.

hey dan, i know you like Voice Farm. charly brown just randomly myspaced me (must've googled himself and seen i posted one of their songs on my site) and sent this link

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqzgMhAc3l0

really fucked, bad horror type shit. was he always a cross dresser? apparently there's a new site in the works. wonder if new music too? think i heard one of their later 80s albums and it was kinda so so new wave.

dan, do you live in sunnyside?

that's a crazy video. I also liked the Tim Gunn guide to Mormon sect fashion that youtube links to it. I've never heard their music past that first LP and the Elevate single.

I live in Woodside, a few blocks from Sunnyside. It's like living in Sunnyside but cheaper, closer to Jackson Heights and better transportation options.

dazzle ships on a thursday!

dammit now i actually have to work (for the 1st time in months) tomorrow...want to to go swimming in the e. village...

go home at midnight.

these are ideas similar to my plan

i guess theres no way to get in to that screening, right?

Not if you don't already have a ticket.

It'll show more.

I just pulled out my records. MY GOD LET'S GO SWIMMING IS BRILLIANT.

dan, can you try to play this song?

http://youtube.com/watch?v=tEcZSGUv_ng

oh man. Confounded pointed that out when it was new.

The movie was AMAZING. I sat behind Bob Blank, Steve from Audika and Arthur's partner Tom.

Tom, Peter Gordon and Ned Sublette showed up to Heathers, which was packed until late.

Great fun all around.

sounds awesome. sorry didn't make it, work's been crazy (triple crown part 2)

been geting my ass kicked at work lately
wanted to get out there so badly but sleep deprivation and totally shattered
THIS IS WHY 30 YEAR OLDS IN NYC DON'T PARTY

reall? 33 year olds chose to "freelance" so they can take a day off if they need to stay out the night before. They don't have to ask permission, but they also barely make enough money to live on. Great stuff!

coming to the UK in late July. May even have a DJ gig. Anybody else need a DJ? Where do I buy records?

awesome! where are you playing?

nothing confirmed yet, so maybe only my iPod. Will let you know.

You'll probably find the records ridiculously expensive. Are you gonna be in London?

^ otm

the "dollar records" are all 20 pounds

I don't care how much they weigh, just so long as they're cheap.

London, St. Albans, Manchester, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Katmandu...

I'd actually be fine buying NEW records like what they sell at Picadilly or Phonica and not having to pay the shipping to the US.

pure groove records is apparently going to reopen in farringdon by the time you get here:

there's a used records shop on essex road that i think you'd really like dan (lots of s'express!) though i can't remember the name of it right now.

and of course rough trade, off brick lane:

the one on essex road may be called "haggle vinyl"
