DJ AM Tribute @ 5ive











This past Monday night at 5ive in Station Square, I had the honor of playing at the 2nd Annual DJ A.M. Tribute. Proceeds benefit the DJ A.M. Memorial Fund. Like I said, it was an honor just to be a part of the event. 31 DJs came out, and did 10 minute sets from 9-2. To see the least, I was very impressed with what I saw and heard. Since many of us have gigs on the same night, we all very rarely get a chance to see each other play, talk, or even catch up. There is one thing about Pittsburgh DJs. 99% of Pittsburgh DJs look out for one and other. People compliment, pass gigs, and support one and other. It is hard to explain how cool the vibe was at 5ive on this night, and I hope to be a part of it for years to come. Thanks to DJs Kurve and Digital Dave for providing the equipment, and the place. As well, big thanks to Digital Dave for putting the whole thing together. RIP AM.

Been a long time...

Dammmnnnnnn!!!!!

It's been a long time since I've hooked up a blog. I promise to make more of an effort. I kinda feel like an idiot after I hyped it up to everyone, and their mom to check it.


So, that being said, I a have a lot to talk about. First, I wanted to congratulate my good friend Bobby. Bobby Kramer aka DJ Climax has been a long time assistant at weddings and events, and is now stepping out as the resident DJ in the South Hills at Level 20 Lounge in South Park. He beat out many DJs to earn the spot as their resident. Bobby has been working really hard to improve, and his hard work has paid off. Keep your ears open, because in addition to DJing, Bobby will be interning at Kiss FM this summer.

Also, I have been filling in at Bar Louie in Station Square over the last couple months. It's always fun to play out at new places, and hang out with new people. That leads me to some good news. They offered me the resident position for Bar Louie on Friday nights there starting in late May. Station Square has a lot going on right now, and if you have a chance definitely come though to Bar Louie for some good food, drinks, promotions, and specials. I will still be rotating with my cousin, Tony aka DJ Crush, at Finn McCools, but this will lead to some frequent schedule changes, so check in on Facebook, Twitter, etc. for updates.


Hope to see folks out soon, and as always, a big thanks to those who come out and support me, and continue to refer me as well.

Talk to you soon! -UD
