Drew was like, "Daddy this was your life".

Well, the truth is this was a generation or two before my time. I went to some of these clubs but I didn't start DJing until The Mudd club (in I think 1980).
These were the guys (no girl DJs yet) who I tried to emulate.
Danny Krivitt, David Mancuso and Nicky Siano were the first DJs I ever heard. Those early DJs were total pioneers and really amazing.
The whole scene was so exciting because it was being created every week.
I remember going to "Ones" and hearing Danny Krivitt play Reggae. I mean Reggae was in it's infancy. Hearing it on a dance floor was revolutionary. Back then it was very soulfull and it sounded great with the old soul records.
(Of course they weren't old then, they were just soul records)
Years later when Nicky Siano, Francois K. and Danny Krivitt would come to hear me spin at Jackie 60 I have to admit...
I was very honored.

This movie looks like it's going to be good.
