That time I was Co-Pilot on Sydney’s 2Ser “Dirt Music” (Saturday, January 27, 2018)

We were in Sydney just recently, a wee family holiday before the start of school again. The aim was to catch up with family and friends – Katy was there for work too. That was the catalyst. And then I ended up doing a few work-related things. I saw the Foo Fighters and Weezer. I […]

DJ Setlist: She Bop – All The Best Tunes From The Best Women Making Pop Music, San Fran, Friday, January 27, 2017

It was an idea – thrown together at the last minute in the end (well, I’ve wanted to do a DJ set of all women artists, and mostly 1980s) but a gap in the schedule needed filling, so I was called up to throw something together. It was a long-haul set too 7pm-2am, so it […]
