DJ Galen Wade / Playlist / Mistral's Graduation Party (Alford, MA) - June 7, 2009 [4 - 7 PM]
This was a gift for our dear friend Anton's oldest daughter's graduation from High School. Congratulations, Mistral! I used a minimal set up and didn't bring the turntable or records. Still, it was pretty damn fun getting to play music I really like without the 'dance' aspect hanging over it all. Three generations represented. Super appreciative audience, as well, and the elder Neuman's dancing toward the end really made my day. Then it rained.
