an offer I couldn't refuse.

The Godfather of House touched down in Toronto last night to help kick off Toronto's Gay Pride closing weekend, at an absolutely off the hook party in a cute little park that totally came alive with fantastic music (and great lighting too!). I've heard Frankie Knuckles before.... about 7 years ago I think at Sonic, and just like that time it was a master class in fusing styles and genres from all over the shop into a pretty damn fine set. There was one track that really stood out so off I go onto my Shazaam... and damnit. nothing. I HATE THAT. Luckily there was a very friendly former staffer from Stereo-ereo-ereo standing beside me who saw my frustration and leaned over and showed me the track name already in his iTunes. Nick from Stereo(formerly) you saved the day :) I've been listening to this little nugget all morning/afternoon trying to kick this wicked tequila hangover.

Sorry for the delay, and I cant really explain having the time or inclination pride weekend to get this post out... but there you go :)

Happy Pride ladies and gents!  Now its off to check out some Guy Gerber (live) and Richie Hawtin etc etc playing at Ontario Place for Digital Dreams.  This hangover isn't getting any better. ooof.
