once got talking to the owner of a record shop on a night out and he asked me to DJ at the shop birthday party a few weeks later, just for an hour or two slot in among some other folk. i spent the next couple of weeks thinking about what i’d play in my set but then i never got any messages about it. but also my laptop subsequently broke and it was taking me ages to load all my music back onto the new one so i didn’t follow things up on my end either.
the shop’s closed now. oh well.
