Barritz’ Burntday was my first full show production both behind the scenes and on the mic… I rented The Cellar in downtown San Jose, California; along with a set of wireless mics… created shows CDs with the tracks performed that night and gave them to everyone in the building… ran the guest list, took a piece of the draw from the door and the bar tab and rocked the mic at midnight.
It was an intense performance with close friends, family and industry folks in attendance. I learned the importance of the sound check as I set up the wireless mics beforehand and did a live mic mix during the show for each artist as we moved around the floor. That night I also realized it was best to control the venue from open to close and make sure all the details were accounted for personally rather than rely on a promoter or club owner.
Swizzle, Deez Dinero & I performed “Flossy,” Attilary & I performed “U Kan’t Fuk Wit Me” and EMPera, Deez Dinero & I performed “Just Skip.”
