Comment:

this is digital (11001). i was invited to a party by this girl i am kind of seeing on saturday night and i made this tape for the host as a gift. however, by the end of the night the host was on some guy and had effectively excused herself from the party and the girl that had invited me had become soused and decided to emotionally ambush me as i tried to leave myself, the tape unplayed.

Ouch! *winces at Brandt's story* Well, this is one cool mix. You can bring it to my place on Friday if you decide the drive is worthwhile... granted, you'll have to bring a cassette deck, as well...

You know, sometimes when the Cubs lose or I'm feeling bad, I think- "why don't I make a rude remark to someone." So I get on the site here, and I often end up on one of Brandt's mixes. My dark side takes over (internally) and I think - "I'll bash the fact that he's got a B&S song on every mix!" or "It's silly to like nothing but indie crap." Well, you know what? I can never seem to actually write/type anything bad. Brandt has a passion for music that really comes through and should inspire everyone on this site. Brandt is "the man."

yeah...i was wondering what i had done...but if you want to bash my mixes gary, you can feel free to do so. i don't view as "indie crap" of course, but hey, i could see why some would :)

It's too bad the atendees at the party never got to hear this. That dance version of Isabel always help me jump start a party. Imagine "Electric Boogaloo" with white people.

I was actually being sincere, although after having read my note back, I can see where you misunderstood.

Well, if you're ever in Perth, you're welcome to come and play your tapes anytime at my house - the hosts would certainly appreciate it - and I promise not to invite any females who may get drunk and ambush you! (although my 3 yr old daughter may try and get you to play games with her all night, as she's *very* social!)
