PRACTICE & N-JOY 2008, DJ Tutor trip to the States.

0:00 A while ago Brian and I, we did a joint video on Skype

Hi folks, Jonathan here. Right, some big news. A while ago Brian and I, we did a joint video on Skype. He's over on the other side now. And we mentioned that I'm going over to the States. At that point I wasn't exactly sure about the precise time and date. Now it's in blood. I've booked the ticket. So I am going to be in the States. I'm going to be in Chicago. The flight gets there. I'm leaving here. On the 24th of January, that's next year 2008, and I get, I leave here 1525 and I get into Chicago 1822 on the 24th which is a Thursday. And then I'm leaving the USA on the 3rd of February and I leave at 1618. So what I'm going to do now, Brian's on the other side of Skype here. And he will explain what is actually happening and the itinerary we've got so far. Take it away, Brian. Okay, right. What we're looking at is we have a meet set up. The date has been rescheduled for Hot Water, obviously. That'll be on the 27th. Sunday the 27th of January 2008. Probably open at about 7 o'clock and kick off at about 9. Now this is going to be a great party. Come to this one. This is at Hot Water in Milwaukee. I will put the address.

In the description of this video, have a look, come up, fly in, drive in, whatever you need to do. This is going to be great. We've got the place to ourselves. We can do anything we want. So you'll have a chance to do a set if you'd like. We can maybe have a sign-up sheet if you'd like to do a set. You don't have to be able to mix properly to do this set. Maybe you just want to play three of your favorite songs. It doesn't matter. If you just want to tell 30 jokes for 15 minutes, I don't care. We can set up times for everyone to get a chance to go up and do what they've got to do. That will again be on January 27th, 2008 at Hotwater in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, starting at 7 o'clock. We've got the place until 2 a.m., so take Monday off. Didn't he say 2.30? Pardon me? Didn't he say 2.30? No, no, it's 2.30 on Saturday. Oh, sorry, I beg your pardon. You've got goofy laws, that's okay, it's 2 o'clock on Sunday. So we'll probably be kicking people out about quarter to two, but get a hotel.

2:19 Call a cab, being at cabs there or whatever, it'll be great

Call a cab, being at cabs there or whatever, it'll be great. We've got a secure lot, so don't worry about your car. Everything is good. This is a nice place, good location. And if you want to Amtrak in from Chicago, we've got a brand new Amtrak station. And everything between the Amtrak station and Hotwater is very good neighborhoods, so no worries if you're not familiar with Milwaukee. And it's only about a mile away from Hotwater as well. Now, we have obligations on the 26th of January. We also have obligations on the... First of February. However, everything else besides the 27th is free. So I'm going to go out on a limb here and say if there's anybody else in the U.S. or within a short flying distance who feels like they can put something together for us, be it a venue or whatever, sometime during the week, let us know.

Okay, this is all tentative. We talked about New York before, but I think we're open to all options and nothing is written in stone. However, if you've got something you think you can do for us, let me know. I'm the U.S. contact. Send me a message and we'll try to make it happen. If you're in Chicago or Indiana or Minnesota or Iowa or wherever you are and you want to come up and you have questions about accommodations, directions, anything else, go ahead and leave a comment in this video. We'll help you out. If you want to carpool with somebody, you can leave a comment in this video. We'll help you out. Whatever we can do for you to get you here on the 27th, let us know. But in the meantime, let's see what other options we can pursue here. What else should we talk about here real quick? Oh yeah, Chicago is going to happen for sure. That sounds good. So we're coming to Chicago. We don't know when. It'll probably be during the week. We've had some people express interest of going on a house music pub crawl down there. So let's see how that goes.

4:07 We're going to arrange the Milwaukee thing

Let's see what kind of input we get on that. Basically, it's up to you folks. We're going to arrange the Milwaukee thing. Everything else is up to you. Let's see what kind of interest there is. Let's see what can be put together. Please contact me and let me know. We will try to expand this a bit because we have more time to work with than we did before. Sounds fun, right? Yeah, less obligations for sure. Yeah, that sounds good. And again, with regards to hot water as well. We're going to be taking, I think it's a PC program, we're going to be taking CDJs and we can bung a couple of turntables in there as well, vinyl turntables, yeah? I don't see a problem with that. Yeah, so we'll have turntables there and CDJs for you to play with. So regardless of whatever your format might be or your medium that you use, you can do your set with it. Well, we'll look into it. Maybe it's Serato. Maybe it's regular vinyl. Whatever you want, just bring it on in and do your set.

We'll have accommodations for you. Sounds fun. Okay, and I'll just reiterate what Brian said because I've had quite a few people email me and they've said, you know, can you do this? Can you go there? Well, the thing is that if you're in the States, your contact is Brian. I will put, well, in fact, we'll link the two videos. So please contact Brian, get in touch with him about anything you'd like to put forward, any ideas. So, is that okay, Brian? Oh, absolutely. No promises here. We'll see what can be put together. We'll see what you can do, basically. It's all very grassroots at this point. Obviously, Milwaukee is my town. I can make things happen here. What can you make happen in your town? Yeah, this is punk TV. You know, it's not as though we've got thousands of dollars and pounds behind us. This is two blokes having a bit of fun and hopefully spreading the word, which is what it's all about.

And it's all, I know, a bit kind of thrown together and romantic, but again, it's Pump TV. Here we are, and here it is. And take it for what it's worth, and take it and run with it. However you feel like you can run with it, do it. Let's see what we can put together. Okay. Bright, practice and enjoy. And I'm going to see you soon, my friend. Right on. I will see you soon as well in rush hour traffic in Chicago. Should be an experience for you right there. It certainly will. Practice and enjoy.
