    Crate Soul Brothers newsletter #69: Join the DJ Widows' Support Group

    Newsflash 21.10.2001

    Dear friends,

    This time I keep it short as there happened not really much music wise this week
    except that I visited Veszprem again where the Easy Life Natural guys keep the
    vibe alive with their nice little club night called Syrup
    (http://www.veszprem.hu/syrup). You can listen to their freshest tune again in
    this week's radio show where I played mostly our recent Hungarian favourites.

    This week's short reading goes out to the girls who are really freaked out that
    their friend (or what's even worse their husband) is djing all the time:

    "Life must be more fun than an Armand Van Helden sample if you are a DJ's wife.
    There's the free entry to the clubs of your choice; endless opportunities to
    pose in a DJ booth with an "I'm-with-him" smug look on your face; and then there
    are the all-expenses-paid trips to Ibiza. Yes it's all sex, drugs and
    tech-trance (sic!) as a DJ wife. The DJ has replaced the footballer as the
    height of "he's-with-me" cool. But once the novelty has worn off, being a DJ
    wife can be, well, a bit dull. A cross between rock star's wife and golfing
    widow, you have to bask in your loved one's limelight and spend hours killing
    time while he's keeping his career alive.

    So what can you do about it? Gnash your teeth at the sight of Mixmag or get all
    your DJ wife chums together for a good laugh and some support? Claire Francis,
    wife of techno-house and Fabric resident DJ Terry Francis, decided that the girl
    option was better.

    She's formed The DJ Widows' Support Group, where DJ wives and their friends got
    together for a good old knees-up and some moral support. "We were all in a curry
    house for a friend's birthday," she explains. "We went back to my friend Vicky's
    flat, and she got on the decks and started playing all her old funk records. We
    got really pissed and were laughing about how we were all DJ widows and I
    thought, why not get everyone together more often to have a laugh when the boys
    are working?"

    From the article "My old man's a DJ - What do you do if your boyfriend's always
    out clubbing?" - The Independent (05/28/2000)

    Keep the vibe alive till next time!
