 As mentioned in last week's blog, last weekend was my brother's bachelor party in Cleveland. Here is a full recap of the events. Friday: I arrive at the AirBnB. It is a nice area. It is very odd though. It seems like the area is halfway gentrified. On one side of the street there was these brand new loft apartments and on the other was a boarded up building. Overall the area was quiet. I get all unpacked and take everything out of my car. Everyone isn't there just yet, so me and my friend take a quick run to the liquor store. Everyone has showed up by the time we got back.  At this point, we have around 7 hours until the concert starts. I decide to crush a quick nap. By the time I wake up, the concert is 4 hours out. We all sit around, listen to music, drink some stuff, and wait for the concert. 9pm rolls around and it is time to get ready for the show. We all change and order an Uber. We get to the venue, and immediately push our way up to the front pit and park ourselves...

My brother is getting married in January. I will be the best man for said wedding. This means it is my job to plan a bachelor party for him. Because he decided to get married less than a year after his engagement, I had less than a year to plan a bachelor party. I know he likes a few things. Dance music, bourbon, golf, fishing, and IPAs. I also knew that he would want two guys from Ohio and two guys from New York at the party, also my Dad for some reason. With all this info I settled on going to FWD in Cleveland Ohio to see the DJ John Summit. The same people who own FWD own Good Night John Boy where I DJ at. I asked the owners if my brother could meet John Summit that night, we'll see if that happens. That covers Friday. What about Saturday? We decided on doing nine holes of golf at around 11am. It is out of fishing season unfortunately, but we will be going to a brewery instead. After the brewery, we will be giving my brother his bachelor party gift. A bottle of EH Taylor bourbon...

    Ada Ohio is in desperate need of a lot of things, most of those things are related to food. Some people say that Ada needs a nightclub, some people say that it needs another bar, some say Chick Fil A. Those people are all overlooking one of the best, most American restaurant style known to man: a diner.     We don't need a Denny's or any big chain of diners. We just need a locally owned diner, ran by some dude who likes to make pancakes. The closest diner we have is Lulu's which is always packed to the brim on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Plus no one wants to drive all the way out there when hungover.      Can you imagine how incredible it would be to have a 24-hour diner in the heart of Ada? There would be no more issues trying to get food late at night. For some reason food is practically banned after 10pm in Ada, and a Diner would be the easiest fix for that.    Anyways, here are some of my favorite diners: Bville Diner (Baldwins...

If you read my previous blog (which has zero views), I had to DJ at a new disco club in Columbus, Ohio. My original set time was from 9pm to 1 in the morning. They didn't have anyone to fill the brunch spot so they asked if I could come in early. I said that I would come in early and do both spots if needed. I was very nervous the night before. I didn't get much sleep because of how anxious I was. I woke up and drove to the club. I got there early and they told me that it has been slow. They told me that I could start playing at 2 if I wanted to save some music. The owners of the club didn't think that they were going to stay open until around midnight. I started playing at 2:30. For the next 4 hours I played music at a low volume for all the brunch eaters. No one was really dancing because they were all sitting and not consuming copious amounts of alcohol. This was my view for around 6 hours. Most of the people were eating downstairs. I played alone from 2:30 to 9:30, wher...
