KNYEW YEARS EVE: The San Diego Chronicles

Happy New Years everyone!!!
I know it's been some time since I last updated the blog and I humbly apologize. Somewhere inbetween the shop getting snowed in and my crib getting burglarized on Christmas eve (believe it yall), I got slightly distracted. Anyhow, it's a New Year and 2008 is finally behind us. Me and the boys flew to San Diego, CA for New Years Eve on Wednesday. Neva was spinning at Club Envy in The Ivy Hotel and I was spinning down the block at Club Stingaree. Kenny, Mr. Knyewtron himself, decided to roll through with the fellas and join in on the festivities. We stayed in beautiful SD 'till Friday and I thankfully had my trusty camera with me to document our short excursion.
When we landed, I noticed that there were huge differences in my hotel room and Neva's. For instance, this is Neva's 42 inch plasma screen with wireless internet at his room in the Hilton.
Here's my 26 inch tube tv with no cable and free wireless internet that I had to steal off of some Mexican Restaurant next door to my hotel, the infamous Horton Grand on Island Avenue.
Here's Neva's comfortable double queen beds with 24 hour room service.
Here's my antique embroidered chair with a broken phone that wouldn't have been able to even call room service cause my hotel didn't provide any...are you seeing a pattern.
Finally, here's Neva's bathroom with a normal toilet and sink that was probably made some time in the last 20 years.
Here's my pull chain toilet and wooden toilet seat. Fortunate for me, the shower didn't work so I ended up taking a bath and I haven't taken a bath by myself in probably almost 20 years.
Neva decided to nap in his comfortable hotel room so me and Kenny decided to do a lil shopping. We stopped through Attic on 5th Avenue.
The Medicom & The Hundreds "Adam Bomb" soon to be arriving at KNYEW hopefully (eh hem, what the f@ck David!!!)
Kicks for Christmas. 3 for me, 1 for Kenny.
After leaving Attic, we quickly headed back to hotel and freshened up for the big night. Stingaree was already a mad house when I got in.
The Stingaree dancers...I'm not mad at that.
11pm and I'm already toastee!!!
So Kenny was hanging out with me in the dj booth with some of his "new friends". The "dickhead" on the right was some drunk kid from hong kong who kept sneaking into the booth and asking me to get on the wheels. I think me and Kenny had to kick him out about a couple of times before security escorted him out.
New Years isn't the same without a tacky laser show.
HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!
Unfortunately, Neva didn't have any pictures to post from his gig at The Ivy but I think this picture of him hung over in bed is sufficient enough. It was a good night for everybody...hahahaha.
So the next day, we trooped over to Pacific Beach and hung out at my boy DJ Scooter's restaurant/lounge called Firehouse.
We met up with my boy Todd and his girl Neesh and our girl Brenna.
Neva aka Black Panda, is finally awake and getting his grub on.
Kenny and our boy DJ Fresh One from Sleeping Giant Ent.
Our girl DJ Frankie M. spinning on the rooftop at Firehouse.
DJ Mickey Beats and DJ Craig Smoove taking their turns on the wheels.
Now that's what I call a beer...Stella served in a mini-fishbowl. The perfect end to a perfect week in Diego.

HAPPY NEW YEARS LAS VEGAS!!!
We got alot of new shit popping this month including our One Year Anniversary as well as some new KNYEW tees dropping near the end of the month. And with Magic creeping up in February, it's gon get even more crazy...trust me.
Crooked signing out!!!
