SUNDAY JOINT XMAS PARTY
Phew - well finally, despite all the elements conspiring against us, THE SUNDAY JOINT managed to pull off it's first Xmas party. It was a near thing. First of all we rolled up at Senses, only to discover that there had been a bizarre toilet backing up accident during the night and all the toilets were ankle deep in shit and slurry. Big respect to Elm who soldiered on with mop & bucket, in order to get it all together, whilst we got on with the less messy jobs, like configuring the new video projector.
So we managed to turn in a good five hour set of soul, funk, reggae etc - complemented by screenings of Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai" and erm... the "Thunderbirds Christmas Special"... well we like a bit of diversity.
A packed house consumed all the Vodka Jellys - but it could have turned very ugly, when Mandy & Michelle's extended family won loads of the raffle prizes, whilst Mandy was picking the numbers... Many eyebrows were raised, but honestly it was just co-incidence.
Also maximum respect to all of our friends & visitors, who suffered the inconvenience of going out into the cold & using the bathrooms in the bar across the street - as ours were strictly 'off limits' for the night. I don't think a single person complained, which was much appreciated. Big ups to the remaining hardcore party people, who then joined us at Sifo, where Lloyd & myself teamed up with DJ Mervnic to keep the dancefloor jumping until 3.00am.
Finally a farewell to Jenn and Gemma, leaving BCN for San Fransisco & London respectively - thanks for your support and remember 'you can check out, but you can never leave'.

Thanks Roger! And thanks for a great double DJ session my last night in town. It was a great way to take off.......(by the way, if I ever DO get married, you're being flown out to take care of the tunes!)

you neglected to mention the bin catching on fire Rog! thanks for all those who came and hope to see you all in the New Year! Have a good holiday!
Mon dio! yeah the garbage bin caught fire, luckily before any customers arrived, so I had to run down the shop & buy a giant size packet of incense sticks to mask the smell and that of the yeuchy bathrooms... what a night!
Everybody has neglected to mention that Lloyd didn't have any clean clothes to wear that evening, so he came out to play two dj sets & socialise for the night - wearing his pyjamas!!!!!!
Im Famous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
