Good Morning Fellow Patriots! Wake-up call for me this past month. eBuy eBuy eBuy. Do I think I'm saving money? Why do I need 4 or 5 of the same item? ; I had to remind myself that the object here is to sell. But the deals are outrageous! Everybody Wins on Ebay! Who couldn't love it? I can just imagine how big the black blob of molten vinyl would be if there were a fire in my apartment? I've decided to sell off my collection of vintage vinyl. I've always taken good care of it - but more than that I got really good at mixing for crowds. I get very aggressive mixing up different styles but keeping a good groove going. If you didn't like the song playing people would say "wait a minute then, it's always changing." I love a great Rock riff, so I have a heavy alternative influence in my mixes. I have been a dj since 1976 and specialize in Dance Music. I have a vast collection of over 11,000 LP's/12" singles and approximately 10,000 45's from the 50's - 80's. Spicy little pieces of "Hot Wax" to keep any dancefloor shaking for days. Afterall, disco & dance music is "the Happy" Music out there. Many include instrumental, dub & acapella versions of song; some only vocal & instrumental. This blog should help me add to my impersonal item descriptions. I'll try to remember what I was doing when "that song came out or was really hot in the clubs" and write about it. Anyway, back to the OCD reference... I used to spend my whole paycheck on vinyl. And all money I made dj'ing went into buying more vinyl. I built a custom 8x4 cabinet for them back in 1987 but that now only holds 3/4's of the lp's. Well, I did sell my first item on ebay today! Congratulations thegaypatriot & DJ PHR34K on moving from 22 buys in 5 weeks, to moving into the selling arena. Yep, sold Sade - Diamond Life (always been a fan). And only two days into selling. They say we all have at least $1200.00 worth of stuff lying around - that we are not using. Why not sell it? You can't take any of it with you. Live Life. Be Happy. Drop me a line about your vinyl interests and favorite vinyl memory. Music I listened to today: Shreikback, David Bowie, Herbie Hancock, Sade, DJ Dave Seaman, Pink Floyd, Gloria Estefan, Hazel Dean, Rozalla, DJ Paul Van Dyk, DJ Deadmau5, DJ Joe Bermudez, Janet Jackson, NRG 92.7 SF, Level 42 Lastly, my heart goes out to the family of Lawrence King - the 8th grader who was shot at school because he gave another boy a valentine. Please visit this site and do something if you can to help end hatred. (http://www.rememberinglawrence.org/) As always, Live, Love, Laugh, Dance thegaypatriot |
