Life is not being kind
Posted: Thu Dec 13, 2012 9:14 amThis vid sums up how I feel right now.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iziP3Lnq0lw
I'm not feeling well..... which normaly wouldn't stop me from DJing, but...
As most of you know when I first came out of retirement to work with the TSW group my old mixer board didn't handle it well. There was a lot of static if I even looked at the thing wrong. So, I bought a new one, that after a few weeks completely died. So, Xtrophic took it back to the store and they sent it off to the manufacturer, who still has it.
Meanwhile, I was missing DJing so much that I spent days trying to get my computer to work directly with my mic, no such luck. So, I dug out my old static ridden mixer board and did a work around so that I could use my mic without having to lay a finger on that board while DJing. It worked, for one weekend. Then the mixer board freaked out and output nothing but a loud screech. It is totally fried.
So, mixer board still in the shop and nothing but a gaming headset that doesn't sound good. At this point I'm not sure I will be DJing on Friday night but I may still make it. Xtrophic is going to try repairing my old Shure mic so at this point its still up in the air.
Just thought I should fill you all in as the situation. I hate not being able to make my shows.
