You know every year we like to do it up at the Winter Music Conference. We’ve got a new venue that you’ve never been to, it’s called Grand Central and it’s shaping up to be kiiiiind of excellent. There will be 2 rooms for you to groove to, and Armand and I are doing our first ever Duck Sauce set! Add to the mix the legendary DJ Sneak and a house set by Just Blaze, plus of course the full FG DJ roster, and you’ve got yourself a night to remember.

“Bout to get some shrimp”

Friday, May 15th, 2009

This just in: my man Felix Da Housecat has Bootsy’s voice.

This was filmed at Diddy’s Ciroc/Brobot party at WMC, where the following picture was also taken:

That’s Sammy Bananas essentially headlocked by Diddy. Priceless.

As posted on the fab Fader blog.

Sorry for the late report folks! I usually do these blogs on Mondays but this week has been nuts. The madness really hit overdrive when I went to Miami for Winter Music Conference last week. I was just coming off of two press days in LA where my personal highlight was the combination of driving in the city of cars for the first time, twittering about how bad I drive especially in a rental Jeep, and getting @replies warning me that I’d get a ticket for texting and driving! As you’ll recall, WMC marked the final stretch of my Infinity +1 tour, having been on the road for 2 weeks.

WMC According to Trizzy

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

The Fool’s Gold posse flew to Miami last Wednesday for some festivities of the Winter Music variety. When we arrived in fabulous South Beach we were famished so we linked up with our buddies Boys Noize, Steve Aoki, MSTRKRFT and LA Riots who were all about to grab dinner. What we didn’t know was that the MSTR boys had made reservations at the fanciest, strangest, most blog-worthy restaurant in the 305. From the outside this place Prime 112 looked more like a club than anything else. When our turn finally came we realized that from the inside it was actually closer to a hotel in the sense that every party got their own private room with not only a dining table but a TV, a couch, a bed, a bathroom… They served plates that were big enough to be shared by 5-7 people. We ordered the mother of all surf & turfs. The lobster was 4.5 pounds. My girlfriend’s dog is about that size.

SXSW and WMC!

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

This was my first year going to SXSW so I kinda went all out. 8 shows in 4 days makes Homer go crazy. But I was there with a bunch of friends so at least it was fun doing all these shows together, pushing the new label and the Dirty South Dance CD all at once. Add a couple of Tex-Mex meals to the mix and I’m good to go.

Winter Music Conference

Saturday, April 2nd, 2005

Last weekend was Winter Music Conference in sunny South Beach, Miami. I have to say, I usually don’t like WMC. The last couple of years, I felt like the parties were too messy - everybody too drunk to notice who’s even playing - and it was getting too electronic for my taste. But this year was pretty dope!
