I was in DC last weekend DJing some Inauguration Parties. I played 18th st. Lounge on Sunday night, and did a record quadruple rewind on the Cocoa Tea "Obama" song with MC Hutchey of Thievery Corp on the mic. People were super hyped up for our new Funky President.

Then Monday night I Dj'ed the Huffington Post Inauguration Party which was televised Live on CNN.


There were over 4000 people there, and more trying to get in. Tons of celebrities made it out like Robert Dinero, Shakira, Steven Spielberg, Val Kilmer, Sharon Stone, Jessica Alba, Ashton Kutcher, Demi Moore, and on and on. Sheryl Crow, Will I Am, and Sting all performed live. Here's a pic of Sting doing acoustic version of "Every Breath You Take" while I'm standing behind him on stage waiting to go on.


I was able to get a few homies in to the party. My boy Troy (Rex Riddim) - who was mistaken about 3 times that night for Will I Am - got a shot with Don King:


Since it was so packed, there wasn't much room to move around, but I did get some asses shaking after Sting performed. Apparently MC Hammer was there dancing, but i didn't see him.

Here is the final 50 minute set I got to throw down for the "white liberal woman crowd" as my friend Troy kept calling it all night:

Then on Tuesday night, I went back to ESL to celebrate again, and DJs King Britt (pictured), Jepthe Guillame, Nickodemus, Daz I Cue, Tom B, and DRM all rocked amazing sets.




After 4 days of partying for Obama it was time to head back to NYC, but not before I got invited for lunch at the Colombian Embassy!!:


We had the most amazing home-cooked soup called "Ajiaco" with 4 kinds of potatoes, fresh chicken and avocado, plus these mini arepas which were unbelievable. It was an amazing way to end the trip, cure my hangover, and set us on our 6 hour drive back to NYC. Gracias Adrianna!
