  I saw Biz DJ a couple years ago in Vegas for some private party.
  
  It was some company party held inside what is now Body English. Open Bar, VIP Tables, blah blah blah.
  
  So I roll in there just getting off work and proceed to get Gin & Tonic trashed. Biz is on the decks (rocking CDR's to my dismay) and I was dancing and singing up a storm.
  
  Pretty standard to all your stories so far. "Just A Friend", TV Theme Songs, Belly Fader tricks, etc..
  
  Then the lights come on.
  
  So the party is over and they clearing out the place. Biz is packing up his CD's and he starts walking out of the booth. In a drunken' moment, I rush the booth and call to him "Take Me to the Mardi Gras, Take me to the Mardi Gras" and he stops and looks right at me.
  
  Now mind you the dancefloor is cleared and the majority of people left are all zombie walking to the exits.
  
  Again I yell at him "Take me to the Mardi Gras!", except this time I say "You aint got it. It dont exist. You ain't got it."
  
  At this point he looks right at me and knows exactly what I'm talking about.
  
  Biz gives me a sly smile and turns right around and goes back in to the booth, opens up his CD binder, turns everything back on and proceeds to CUT THE SHIT out of the intro for 5 minutes straight.
  
  The whole time I'm dancing and jumping like a fool and theres maybe 20 left in the club.
  
  Biz finishes, gives me a smile and some daps and is out.
  
  Biz played a song for me.

  were there bells?

  
  Well I just wanted to see if there was a 12" of the song.
  
  Like I said, he pulled out a CDR but it was the standard LP version recorded. Bells intact.
  
  I ain't mad though.
