Bad day at the office…
Whilst I won’t mention the persons name, due only to `professional integrity’, The person, a well known DJ (not from the old school, and no-one I know closely - of course! (as you will see)) who I will mention here will have no doubt I am talking about them, and better pay very close attention to what i am about to say…
How fucking dare you deliberately and violently strike out at ANYONE - EVER - IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER!!! Let alone behind the decks, and you as part of the `circle’ of people RESPONSIBLE for the entertainment of the public… ! … Who the fuck do you think you are, you tiny, irrelevant, and frankly averagely at best talented piece of shit?
You DARE storm behind the decks (`our’ place) and demand to play “NOW!” as I am dropping my first tune, to which I say “hang on bro, just jumped on, and you’re not paying today, I have (as usual) a couple of people already lined-up to jam with me…” which you respond to with belligerent abuse, and then follow up by repeatedly violently striking out at my frankly gentle and lovely friend’s Wayne Baker and Dorian as they try to leave the booth after their set, and then throw a punch at ME when I notice what you are doing, and stand between you’re arrogant fuck-head self, and my friends - in front of a packed dance floor!!! WTF? Seriously?
Listen here LITTLE BOY… firstly you are very lucky I chose to remove you via the clubs security, rather than return your violence - make no mistake about that… Secondly and most importantly you are one of `us’, of those paid to be RESPONSIBLE for the vibe, comfort, enjoyment, joy and essentially the well-being of the public that have CHOSEN to TRUST their precious time to `us’, as part of their work-life balance… and in such your actions are INEXCUSABLE…
I have never seen anything like it before, even by those who have `earned’ the level of arrogance you displayed (but do not ever show it) from decades of GIVING to `our’ scene… Got it yet? My advise is this, do yourself a big favour and pull out for six months while you consider the implications of your actions and learn some respect and humbleness toward the public and your industry peers.
If I see your name on any event line-up during this time, i will personally speak to the promoter about what you did and the importance of zero-tolerance towards violence and aggression in our industry. By anyone! Let alone the people on the inside of it.
You acted like a pig… Acknowledge this truth, apologise to Wayne and Dorian and back that shit right down…
Show some honour, and learn some respect or get the hell out of our scene. Or be removed. Your choice.
Don’t think I’m serious? - Better ask around.
Good luck and PEACE

When one has nothing left to loose one becomes courageous. We are timid only when we have something left to cling to.
Having a mushroom omelette for supper and lying down to continue reading Carlos Castaneda, `The Second Ring of Power’, with Vaeya Bipolar bubbling away in my headphones as the words danced around, eventually swimming up and off the page… now that made for an interesting evening I can tell you.

PEACE (indeed!)
A wise woman who was traveling in the mountains found a precious stone in a stream. The next day she met another traveler who was hungry, and the wise woman opened her bag to share her food. The hungry traveler saw the precious stone and asked the woman to give it to him. She did so without hesitation. The traveler left, rejoicing in his good fortune. He knew the stone was worth enough to give him security for a lifetime.
But a few days later he came back to return the stone to the wise woman. “I’ve been thinking,” he said, “I know how valuable the stone is, but I give it back in the hope that you can give me something even more precious.
Please give me what you have within you that enabled you to give me the stone.”

5 Centimeters Per Second
A wonderful tale of two young children that have a very deep connection with one another. This boy and girl grow up together and create a special bond, and that bond is tested as the two move away from one another. The anime follows the pair as they grow up and apart, and takes you through the different changes that happen as they reach adulthood. You mostly follow the main character, but the female is always on his mind no matter how far from home he goes. This is a heartfelt story, and one that tugs at the heartstrings as you watch. It’s going to weigh heavy on your heart for years to come, and it’s sure to influence the way you think and react as life goes on.
Unrequited love… aint it a bitch!

My final parting gift to you, will be this one of PEACE…
“I can say only one thing: you have given each other beautiful moments — be grateful, be thankful. The parting should not be ugly when the meeting was so beautiful.
You owe it to existence that the parting should be made beautiful. Forget all your promises — they were right when they were given, but the time has changed, you have changed. You both are standing at a crossroads, ready to move in different directions; perhaps you may never meet again. Make it as graceful as possible. And once you understand that it has to happen, gracefully or ungracefully, then it is better to make it graceful.
At least, your lover will live in your memory, you will live in the memory of the lover. In a certain way, those moments together will always enrich you. But part gracefully.
And it is not difficult when you have understood love — which is a very difficult phenomenon. You fell without a second thought; you can understand that very easily love has disappeared. Accept the truth of it, and don’t blame each other, because nobody is responsible.
Help each other gracefully; in deep friendship, part. Lovers when they separate become enemies. That is a strange kind of gratitude. They should become really friends. And if love can become friendship, there is no guilt, no grudge, no feeling that you have been cheated, exploited. Nobody has exploited anybody; it was just the biological energy which made you blind.
I teach a different kind of love.
It does not end in friendship but begins in friendship.
It begins in silence, in awareness. It is a love which is your own creation, which is not blind.
Such a love can last forever, can go on growing deeper and deeper.
Such a love is immensely sensitive. In this kind of relationship one starts feeling the need of the other person even before the other person has spoken.
I have known a few couples, very few couples — my acquaintance with couples is big, but I have come across only two, three couples who had not fallen in love, who have risen in love. And the most miraculous thing about them was that they started feeling each other without words.”
