Opening week went really well, with all sets as scheduled. Attendance has been a little sparse early in the week, but it should pick up as more folks get accustomed to us being open. I am also working on adding a second set on weekdays. Currently I'm looking for DJs for 4-6PM SLT Tuesday through Friday, so if that fits your schedule let me know. I am also bringing in more live acts on Saturdays, so keep an eye on the calendar.

This past Saturday marked the debut of Ozark Hax at Freakheim, and it kicked ass! The theme was Asian wear, and everybody looked awesome! I saw a few folks I hadn't seen in a long time, so I spent most of the set catching up with them. Thanks for coming out! The female contest ended in a 4-way tie, the first time that's happened at Freakheim!


Following Ozark's set, the theme for the Saturday Shred was "Redneck Nite". This theme was by request and was definitely different from my usual sets here. I played Southern Rock, Country, Bluegrass and requests. There was also some cow-tipping going on, as well as the bouncing cattle. I was literally LOL in the studio! Though there weren't a lot of folks at the set, everyone who came had fun. Both the male and female contests ended in ties, 2-way for male and 3-way for female. SL musician Ictus Belford and his lovely wife Carrie Laysan dropped by after Ictus' gig and we all traded Redneck credentials. Look for Ictus to play Freakheim soon, I can't get enough of his live sets!



Next week's Shred returns to more familiar music as we celebrate the women of Rock-n-Roll with a Rockergrrrlzzz! theme. I'll be spinning tunes by female bands and bands with female singers or musicians in them. Bring your favorite Rockergrrrl requests & I'll slide 'em in for ya! The contest will be Rockerwear, so just show up in your rockin' best & get on the boards. Remember, if the page on the contest board fills up, I increase the prize!
