I posted this in another thread, but the night went great, my desi peoples represented, and my homie Turbanator even flew out from NC to join in. I don't think I've ever got so much positive feedback from the people who came and danced - it was really great feeling and everyone was hyped. Check the pics:

The owner even loved the night, and told me to call her to set it up for next month. But a week later she totally bailed on me saying they didn't make enough money at the bar so she didn't want to do it again.
So I'm on the hunt for another venue. But based on this night, I ended up getting asked to spin a short set at a big bollywood party in Canoga Park last Saturday. Punjabi dudes were "making it rain" with $1 bills so I managed to scramble outta there with $10 - good times!
In any event, thanks Electrode, Belson & Yuichi for coming out and supporting.
Any Soulstrutters PLEASE recommend a cool venue if you can. I need a place that has a decent soundsystem, can hold around 100 people, doesn't require a deposit or bar minimum, will let me keep the door money, and has a monthly Thur, Fri, or Sat slot available. Holler at me people.
Why don't you try zanzibar in santa monica. Lots of great DJs do nights there... the crowds are super diverse and the restaurant is decorated in sort of a north african/middle eastern vibe. Its big too with a good sound system.
