Not announcing or advertising anything, I just wanted to make a post to say how grateful that yall have continued to support and how much that means to me.
When the club got shut down (almost a year ago now), towards the end, it felt like I had kinda wasted 5 years of my life. Like I had worked so hard physically building and running every aspect of the club, and now that it was gone, what was the point of it all?
But the very next day when I had to start dismantling the bar, people kept showing up, and not just for all the free s**t I was giving away, but to actually help. And looking around at the disparate assortment of people, all from completely different backgrounds and social groups, helping me to take things down, I had this epiphany, that THIS was the point. That in a world where everything is a hallow facade of people desperately trying to portray their lives to some idealized standard, real human connection and community can still exist.
Its so much easier to just be a nihilist. To say “hey the world sucks and is unfair, nothing I can do about it” and continue to live your life, resigned to the fact that you are surrounded by amoral wolves that seek only to exploit society for money and social capital.
But this is not the way.
You have an effect on every person you meet, whether you realize it or not. You have the ability to make their life better or worse in every interaction. This is the most important thing Ive learned doing this.
Im currently flying to dj a wedding for some people from the club (i also think this is the third wedding Ill have played for ppl who connected at the club), and to think that something as inconsequential as me playing my corny ass mashups, has brought people together, gives me hope that its all not for nothing. That the things you do still have meaning and purpose and I am so grateful that yall still let me do this. I love yall.
