I gotta get you out here, man. Think about an Iowa trip -- I can get you a spinning slot, and we can work out a plane ticket deal. Why? Shit is happening. My buddies are setting up a series of club nights that have been going off really tight. DJ Milton is living in town now, and he's been helping set up ghetto nights in Cedar Rapids. September 5th is Milton, Slugo, Urban, Funk, and Deon (live PA)! Yah Boyee! Now you know that I'm not about ghetto all the time, but there are so few chances to see the originators of a style all in one night. I hung with Milton at a party last night for quite a while, and I'm going to be doing some CD mastering and duplicating for him, and maybe some studio stuff. He is a incredibly nice guy, and straight up solid as they come. He's in Iowa for his wife to go to college, and because living South Side was putting the fear into his 3 daughters. Give it a think, man and we'll chat. The nice thing about Iowa City is that the scene is small and passionate, and hasn't yet succumbed to the kind of big money, cracked out scene that has taken over big cities. I've been to big parties in Chicago and elsewhere, and we don't take second place when it comes to vibe and talent.
