    Well, next time I am in Chicago I’ll come and visit. Unfortunately too far for the ocassional gig (10 hour flight or so lol).

    There are indeed quite a few chicago based readers here. Think it’s a wonderful idea to ask here and would give me a real warm feeling inside if this works out!

    Greetinx.

    Maybe try on http://reddit.com/r/chicagoedm

    I’m sure you could find people.

    It’s not about finding people. I get 2-3 demos a week. I’m trying to do this through digitaldjtips. And we are really not an edm kind of place.

    Hello Kregg,

    As a fellow Chicagoan who’s also part of the digitaldjtips Family,
    I think that it’s cool what you’re doing as far as offer DJs some
    time to shine.

    I would like to talk to and perhaps brainstorm ideas with you one day.

    Much continued success to you.
    Eric N.Harris

    Yeah D-Jam, the man is trying to give back to the (THIS!) community. Don’t be sending him elsewhere 😀

    @Eric: if you are interested at all, I’d say: WHY WAIT ?! Go make an appointment for that talk now.

    Hey Kreg. That’s great to give back to the digitaldj community! I’m in the Chicagoland area (Addison) and am interested in this opportunity! What days would you be looking for a back-up? I know it can very I just want to get an idea how it works with my schedule. Thanks!

    Our schedule is always fridays 10pm-2am and saturdays 10pm-3am. So those are the times we are looking for availability. We’re located in lakeview neighborhood. These are prime time spots, not opener acts or dj on off nights, and the whole night is yours to run. It’s actually a pretty good gig to get real experience. And yes you get paid. I’m looking for more of the right personality fit as everyone who works at the bar is kinda like family. The skills will come with experience.

    Guys if you’re interested, we should probably set a time to meet, you can bring your equipment and we can see how things go. Please email me as it’s easier for me to keep track of responding there rather than here.
