Armand Van Helden spins Aero at WMC 2009

There's nothing like being friends with the DJ, lol. I shot this video from the booth at Aero (off 23rd and Collins) on Saturday night, March 28, sometime around 3 AM. The club was jumping as AVH kicked his classic hits, including My, My, My, Witch Doktor, Full Moon and more. The crowd was having such a good time, this dude started throwing money around...literally! He threw a stack of dollar bills up in the air. Too bad it wasn't C-notes. I guess it's the economy and he must have been holding back.

Rolling video from WMC 2009

I flew in to Ft. Lauderdale today and caught the Go Shuttle to South Beach. I shared a ride with some folks also heading to the Winter Music Conference.

Unfortunately, I didn’t get it on video, but we did an impromptu Ableton Live tutorial in the vehicle. I taught everyone how to set up their midi session and configure Ableton with a midi-interface. Pretty funny how you get down to business well before you register for the actual conference.
