Thors Hammer

We went to Thors Hammer for Justin's birthday last night, an Open Decks night run by Apollo from Hardhouse, every Thursday night at Cube. There's some cool pictures up at Hardhouse, especially the last three of Taz and Justin Sane. Would you buy a used car from these men?

Open decks nights are great for giving bedroom DJs a chance to play out in public for the first time. They also get guest DJs in and for Justin's birthday they had Chelfyn, Zana Mills, Taz and of course Justin Sane, playing the midnight slot into his 22nd year. There was some nice mixing, and no major trainwrecks, but I have noticed young Auckland DJs only seem to play hard and fast. I suppose it takes young lads a while to learn to pace themselves, doesn't it girls?

I was having a lovely time until someone played the Give it to me Baby track.It's a hard house track with a vocal of a chick screaming 'Give it to me Bayyybbbeaaaaaaa'. It always sets my teeth on edge, and my shoulders shoot up round my ears. I don't know why it provokes such a violent reaction - it just does. But then I'll never be 20 again and judging from the exhuberant bouncing for a Thursday night that was the average age in there. I used to start the weekend on a Thursday night - now it's become the night before the weekend.
