Calling Fellow Soul DJs! Where It's At! is looking for guests!!!



Hello Friends and fellow DJ's! Up until this month, I have been holding it down twice monthly at the Mad Dog in the Fog for Where It's At! with my DJ partner in crime, Shawn. Sadly, he will be moving back home to the Big Apple very soon. This will be leaving open the opportunity to welcome guests to share the decks with me. If you are interested, whether I already know you or not, hit me up! Please keep in mind that this is a 100% vinyl party specializing in 1960s & 70s soul:: Funk, Disco, Rare Groove, Motown, Modern, Northern, etc. Some nights get pretty eclectic, while others seem to focus a little more on a couple styles. It all depends on the mood of the bar and where my musical intuition flows. Regardless to say, it's a nonjudgmental night and we just like to spin good tunes and have a good time over a few pints of beer! So, if this is up your alley, send me a message and I'll get you scheduled to join the party!

With all of that said, here are the details:
*10pm until close (usually we quit the tunes about 1:45am)
*Mad Dog in the Fog - Lower Haight, cross street is Fillmore
*530 Haight Street, SF
*Free drinks for the night. Mad Dog is a beer & wine bar, fyi
*A little cash at the end of the night.

Contact me here if interested or need any more details: mookeysmooddesign@hotmail.com

Dark Whimsy in a Gallery Window!

If you happen to find yourself anywhere near the Lower Haight in San Francisco, I highly suggest that you take a walk about half a block down Fillmore St. to view the window display in the local gallery. I'm sorry that I did not catch the gallery name, but it is next to the Upper Playground space. I caught a glimpse after hours, so I also do not have the artist's info, but I was able to snap a couple of shots of this amazing display! The subject narrative is quite dark, but the characters are so whimsical! The attention to detail is overwhelming and keen. As I said, a viewing of these windows is definitely worth while!

Groove Merchant turns 20!


It's nice to know that in the middle of our very trying economic times, there is a independant business that is celebrating an anniversary and 20 years at that! Groove Merchant is one of the best Indie record stores in the Bay Area. Located in the Lower Haight in San Francisco, they occupy a modest sized shop, but hold a wealth of original vinyl. My collection centers around Soul, and they definitely have an amazing selection to offer. They also carry Jazz, Latin, Funk, Folk and on and on. Mostly LP's & 12", but a nice little selection of 45s as well. If you haven't been down to support, don't wait any longer! And while you're there, pick up one of the 20th anniversary commemorative CD comps that has been put out by Ubiquity Records!
