Podcast | 11.09 - Live at GEAR - 09.22.11 - Parts 1 & 2

Hey there disco boys and girls-

In September, I got to return to one of my new favorite clubs in San Francisco - The Beatbox.  This time, I got to spin a special Thursday night party called GEAR to celebrate the beginning of one of the gay high holidays - The Folsom Street Fair.  The night was an amazing night of sexy, geared up guys getting ready for one of the biggest weekends of the year.  

As always, you can find my music by subscribing to my podcast on iTunes, or you can download or listen to each mix on Podomatic.

Without further ado, I present to you:

Much Respect | DJ Steve Sherwood (SFO)

Hi there disco boys and girls-

Sometimes when you're going through an experience that's hard to describe, you're lucky enough to have a friend along for the ride to share it with you.  DJ Steve Sherwood is one of my great friends in SF, and he has become a huge inspiration for me on my journey.  

Not only is Steve an incredible DJ (be sure to subscribe to his podcast on iTunes), but he's a funny, positive, and wonderful friend I look to for inspiration, support, and guidance (and steal a song from on ocassion!  LOL).  Listen, no one teaches you how to be a DJ, trust me.  We're all out here on our own trying to figure it out, and Steve has been an incredible person on this adventure with me - I'm very proud to call him a friend.

Steve has become an integral part of the San Francisco dance community, and he's been gaining attention nationally while traveling with Bearracuda across the country.  He will be headlining Galaxy at the newly opened BeatBox in SF tomorrow night, and we will be DJing Bearracuda Friday night together at Lazy Bear this year.  

Steve, thanks for being such a great inspiration, and a wonderful friend.  I'm so glad we get to do this together.  Much respect!

DJ Craig Gaibler

Podcast | 11.05 - Flagging in the Park 05.14.11 - Parts 1 & 2

Hey there disco boys and girls- 

Flagging in the Park is one of my favorite events of the summer.  It's a time when our San Francisco friends come together to celebrate life, remember those before us, and help raise money for important causes in our community.   This year I was honored to be asked back to DJ for the event by Xavier Caylor, the event's originator.  And in honor of my wonderful friends Suzan Revah and Graig Cooper's son Findley heading off to a very San Francisco school in the fall, I chose the Harvey Milk Civil Rights Academy as the beneficiary of the event.

The day was another amazing reminder why San Francisco is so special.  And I can honestly say it was one of my most special DJ gigs I have ever spun.  I hope you can hear what an great day it was in the recording of the event.

Podcast | 11.04 - Live at Industry - 04.30.11

Last month I had a chance to DJ at Industry with some of the people I respect the most in music, and who I'm constantly inspired by - The Freemasons, Luke Johnstone, Jamie J Sanchez, and my great friend DJ Russ Rich.  That night, Russ and I played the VIP room for Luke and Billy Worthen's 40th birthday party, which was a collaboration between Luke's Industry night and Gus Presents.  It was a great night, and I got to play a great high-energy circuit set after Russ killed it for the crowd!
