This episode of the podcast was created for the readers of the "Joe.My.God." blog. My introduction to Joe Jervis, and his incredible blog came after REAL BAD XVIII in 2006 (see Episode 6 for an excerpt of that night's party). When I got back home to Salt Lake City, my very excellent friend Richard Dupler (who has a great podcast called "Danceteria," BTW) sent me an email with a link to Joe's blog.
Right there, was a review of my set. Joe said it "took us on a soaring, triumphant journey of beautiful melodic techno/trance, holding us in the palm of his turntable until the very last note at 4am." Needless to say, I was flattered beyond measure. I didn't remember meeting Joe that night, and didn't know if I ever would, but I resolved to send him a copy of the full set once I got the discs burned. I got his address from an other friend in San Francisco, and eventually dropped the CDs in the mail, and figured that would be the end of it.
Fast forward to 2010. Promotoer Joe Fiore contacts me asking if I'd like to play in NYC for Furball. Of course I said "yes!" It was a great night, and a great party, and the Bears in New York are among the sexiest, friendliest group of guys I've had the pleasure to play for. As the night ended, a very handome gentleman walked over to me and we were introduced. Yep, it was none other than Joe Jervis!
Well, I promptly began to thank him -- profusely -- for the wonderful review, teling him how much it meant to me, and asked if he'd mind taking a photo with me. Thankfully he didn't.
As I left New York, I figured that would be the lasd I'd hear from Joe, bt it wasn't. Shortly after the event, Joe sent me a message on Facebook, asking if I'd put a se together for his listeners. How could I refuse?
So, what you have here is that set. Joe's readers have already had the opportunity to hear this set, but I wanted to share it with my podcast subscribers as well.
Thanks, Joe, for extending the invitation!
