i love nerds!

I love nerds.
but lets all not be mistaken.
there are two kinds of nerds.
there are nerds that hidden geniuses with creativity and humour and are just so damn cool because of there nerdiness.
and then there are nerds that are true blue nerds that are boring and not innovative with the smarts they have.
I don't know how else to describe the difference between the two.... but i know, you know what i'm talking about right?

speaking of cool interesting nerds, i went to see one of my favourite djs last night at the commodore ballroom. mike relm. discovered him years ago when i went to see another concert and he opened, and well i've become a true fan since then. not only does he scratch records and manipulate sounds, but he simultaneously adds visual stimulation via similarly manipulated video footage. mike relm scratches and mixes a variety of music as well as scratches dvds. taking pieces of sounds to create brilliant beats and rhythms matching up with the music. this also creates an inventive imagery. one big hilarious, amazing multimedia mash of sight and sound that will put your brain into a bit of a whirl! he is quick with his cuts and cleaver and funny with the footage he chooses. I usually dance and laugh my ass off all night, every time!

anyways some footage from the concert last night.... footage never gives the real live stuff the justice of how it was, but it's a nice taste. Ah good times. good memories.



and old footage of a set cut into one, just to get a flava...
