I made it out for a bit but I don't think KDJ was on the bill. My friend Scott and I got there a bit early around midnight. We caught the tail end of a fun dj who was spinning house and techno-ish tracks. He was dropping aril brikha's groove la chord and infiniti and mixing hip hop a la NWA with it all. Then another dj went on and played some decent deep house that got the 'crowd' dancing. I say 'crowd' because the turnout at that point was still pretty sparse. At the flip of a track, this dj cleared the floor and we decided to head for the main room where not much was going on earlier. Not much was still going on but i bought some popcorn. Then everyone who was in the other room came streaming in. We thought we had started a trend but they ended up closing down the other room. The djs in the main room continued playing a somewhat lackluster set and everyone stood around for a bit. Then Dajae went on and got people moving with renditions of Say U Will, Brighter Days, etc. After she was done Frankie Feliciano went on and played NYC body and soul. A good portion of the crowd was dancing but Scott and I weren't feeling it. After four days of being on my feet, my dogs were barking. We ended up heading out early as we were both fatigued and Scott had to get up early to go to work the next day. Had hoped to catch Rick in action but better luck next time :(
