Ready for pt. deux? I’m certain you’ve been waiting with baited breath. So, it turns out that Simian Mobile Disco’s flight to Philadelphia had been canceled due to the hurricane like weather that we had been experiencing earlier that day. Let’s pause here and take this appropriate opportunity to address the Weather gods:
Dear Weather gods,
Enough is enough! The snow, the 30 mph winds, the torrential downpours— my house is cold, my hair is in a constant state of disarray, I can’t ride my bike anywhere, and important people like the members of Simian Mobile Disco can’t get to Philadelphia to perform for me. Two days of gorgeous weather does not make up for the worst winter ever.
Sincerely, MDH
SMD was stranded somewhere far away from Philly, but all was not lost! Steve Aoki, everyone’s favorite Asian guido was stuck in the 2-1-5 airport and agreed to take SMD’s place! I don’t like guidos, but I like Aoki because he’s weird, gets me dancing, and makes cool clothes that are kinda hip-hop/kinda hipster/kinda asian. I actually just ordered this awesome tee from his clothing company Dim Mak Collection. The track I’m posting is Aoki’s excellent remix of the mediocre Kid Cudi song “Pursuit of Happiness.” Good remixes are the only way I can listen to Cudi because he’s just so boring. Maybe if he’d come out of the closet already and admit that he’s Kanye’s gay lover, I’d like him better. Aoki can make this kid interesting, now that’s good stuff.
Now, back to my story. Things were getting rowdy when we arrived, but after an hour, a $10 all you can drink special, and bartenders with the heaviest hands in North Philly it had turned to chaos! By the time Aoki graced us with his presence the crowd were carrying far too much to sail (if you know what I mean). Aoki blew up the warehouse with his sound and no one could resist dancing, except for me after a drunk gentleman knocked me off my 3 inch heels causing me to sprain my ankle. It was worth it, even though my after party was held at Temple Hospital with gunshot wound victims. Party on!
