Gig #38: Funky Dance Music @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 11/04/08 A short night DJing, which honestly never hurt nobody :-)
Gig #37: BUSAN BEER OLYMPICS @ Neo, Haeundae, Busan, ROK - 10:?? pm -> 05/04/08 A crazy night for charity, with a packed dancefloor amidst lots of drunken revelers. The competition was fierce, but an American team emerged as the champion beer drinkers!
Gig #36: Funky Wedding Music @ Neo, Haeundae, Busan, ROK - 10:?? pm -> 30/03/08 First wedding party I've ever DJed - definitely a lot of fun, despite the increase in requests :-). Tragically the DJ afterwards cleared the dancefloor in literal record time - under 2 songs.... wow.

Gig #30: St. Paddy's Party @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 14/03/08 After some acoustic Irish music, the full-force dance party began, with an Irish twist. Plenty of dancing until the early morning, which in Pusan is well past 4. Special thanks to the COREM Crew for coming out!
Gig #29: Funky Dance Music @ Neo, Haeundae, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 08/03/08 Battle of the Bands was won by Reverend Mac (nice "Chameleon" cover), and ignoring an agitated lesbian all dancers were fully satisfied.

Gig #26: Funky Dance Music @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 29/02/08 A lengthy genre-spanning set, beyond your typical Friday night. A varied crowd, complete with some members of the American Naval Dance Club, got their grind on.
Gig #25 Gangsta Party @ Neo, Haeundae, Busan, ROK - 2:00 am -> 4:?? am 23/02/08 A themed-going-away party got the bar packed and, um, crunked up. Endless rap & hip-hop meant the party kept going until late. Definitely a fun gig to DJ!
Gig #24: Funky Dance Music @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 1:30 am 23/02/08 Rather slow night, so played a pretty chilled-out set - got to leave early, which worked out well for my next show...
Gig #23: Funky Dance Music @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 22/02/08 Another legendary (yet slightly underappreciated :-) six-hour set; Burning Softy Panda played at Soul Trane, so the party got real busy around 3am, when the crowd rolled over to The Basement.
Gig #22: Funky Dance Music @ Neo, Haeundae, Busan, ROK - 8:00 -> 17/02/08 Called in on Sunday, due to a DJ cancellation. Funky diverse set, unappreciated by insecure high schoolers, but enjoyed thoroughly by Korean birthday partiers. Thanks to Luke.
Gig #21: Funky Dance Music @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 15/02/08 Lowkey night... on a personal level my bass 'n' drum jam with Luke at Moe's was equally enjoyable.
Gig #20: Funky Dance Music @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 08/02/08 Same Same But Different. That's what my T-shirt says.
Gig #19: Funky Dance Music @ Neo, Haeundae, Busan, ROK - 11:?? -> 02/02/08 Korean live hip-hop ? Cheesy dance-music ? ROKin the ROK is always interesting... but at least Brian is 24 now!
Gig #18: Funky Dance Music @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 01/02/08 Samba dancing class branched out to hip-hop; more chicks dancing than to your ass this weekend...
Gig #17: Funky Dance Music @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 25/01/08 I was sick and the night was slow, a great combination :-)
Gig #16: Funky Dance Music @ Neo, Haeundae, Busan, ROK - 12pm -> 19/01/08 Ended up doing research on the competition - but things are looking promising in the near future...
Gig #15: Funky Dance Music @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11:?? pm -> 18/01/08 A successful evening, genres were crossed with no hard feelings.
Gig #14: Hip-hop/Techno @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11pm -> 11/01/08 Thanks to the sexy Korean ladies there for a birthday party for keeping the dancefloor alive on a rainy Friday...

Gig #10: Hip-hop/Techno @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11pm -> 28/12/07 An epic cross-genre set of legendary proportions. Shame you weren't there, or were you?
Gig #9: X-MAS EVE FULL-MOON PARTY @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11pm -> 24/12/07 Definitely a bit crazy, with cheap buckets of rum and cokes (Thailand-style) putting more than a few drunks out on the dancefloor. Six hour set.
Gig #8: Anderson's Aural Assault (FUNKY Techno) @ Neo, Haeundae, Busan, ROK - 12am -> 22/12/07 Fun night out as we moved from a coworkers X-Mas party to Neo.
Gig #7: Hip-hop/Techno @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11pm -> 21/12/07 Nothing exciting happened... just drunken dancing :-)
Gig #6: Anderson's Aural Assault (FUNKY Techno) @ Neo, Haeundae, Busan, ROK - 12am -> 15/12/07 Bar changed ownership, but the party's still going on.
Gig #5: Hip-hop/Techno @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11pm -> 14/12/07 Another good week, hookahs were out and about...

Gig #3: Hip-hop/Techno @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11pm -> 07/12/07 Special thanks to Liz & Rachel for being "the glue" and holding the dance floor together! Fortunately broken headphones weren't able to stop a good time from being had...
Gig #2: Hip-hop gig @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11pm 30/11/07. Plenty of pole-dancing, drunk DJs, and bangin' beats... it definitely turned into Sandyland :-)
Gig #1: "Full Moon Party" gig @ The Basement, PNU, Busan, ROK - 11pm 24/11/07. Cheap buckets of rum and cokes excused the couple bad mixes... not too shabby a debut!
