What can I say?........Meta Vibes iz awesome!!!......Great info.........
I am glad to see that there is someone out there preserving the dance community.
My name is Joseph Lachiana a/k/a Dj Joey Ghost. I am thirtysix years of age......
I've been around. My nineteen year dj career includes some nyc work.
Level 10 (The Top Floor) on west 26th street, Roseland back in 88 / 89, and the
grand re-opening of the legendary Funhouse to name a few.
Getting these nyc gigs changed my life.......but still looking for my place in the BIZ.
Freddy Bastone (an overlooked nyc dj from danceteria) gave me my "in" at Level 10............I auditioned and wuz the priveleged resident dj at nyc's Roseland in late 88, early 89 (between "baby j" and john "gungie" rivera) and while a student at CMA...... i heard of open auditions held at the old Funhouse (which was called Hearthrob at the time) for a grand re opening try at the Funhouse. I won that spot
but the promotion never took off.................????????? how could that early 80's funhouse muzik not have a following?............
I am stuck in the Funhouse still!........... cant get the vibe out of me.........im lookin to promote and dj a nite of old hard funhouse muzik....and there's plenty of it.can u help?
