@MerlottesBar DJ 

@Stilettos69 Many many thanks for DJing last night @MerlottesBar!

@Stilettos69 , Lexi, I reviewed your tweetstream from last night and I have to say you were brilliant!  Your music selections were right on and your interactions with the staff and patrons @MerlottesBar were smooth and natural. Any time you want to step in for a night, or a week or whenever you want I'll be honored!  You've got "it"!  That's rare.

Thanks again and see you on the tweetstream!!!!

Oh and tweeple, @MerlottesBar is closed tonight for Easter, see you Monday night for Ladies Night, (who knows, maybe we can get @Stilettos69 to DJ again...)

Happy Easter!

It's Humpday @MerlottesBar tonight!

Last night was Doubleshot Tuesday @MerlottesBar. It went pretty well. Sam is off on Tuesdays, this time he only stopped in to get a burger to go, he's getting better at really being off, good for him! @TaraMaeThornton had a bit of a headache, and @SookieBonTemps was late so I drafted a few folks to "help out" for a few minutes. @kikkitigerwolf waited tables and @IAmNightfall tended the bar. Fortunately it was early and not too busy so they did great. Sookie and Tara were back soon enough. Good thing too, it did start to pick up! I "convinced" (well not too hard to do hehehehe) @Honey3223 to grab @smeykunz and @konelli to come on in for a bit and they all did. I think it did Shan some good to get out of the Compton Asylum for awhile. Turned out to be a pretty good night and blip.fm cooperated very well.

Tonight is Humpday @MerlottesBar. @SookieBonTemps is working according to the schedule so ya'll come in for  some good food, drinks, music, and company! Oh, and here's to no one getting bitten, beaten, staked, kidnapped, or glamoured!

Ladies Night @MerlottesBar and I'm back!

The drama weekend is over! Everyone is safe, sound, healthy, and with a whole lot to check off their bucket lists!

Tonight is again Ladies Night @MerlottesBar (at least until football season). I'll be back blippin tunes, retweeting great tweets, and generally being snarky!  I'm also looking forward to how @Dj_Midori is progressing as she settles into Shreveport and her gig at Fangtasia, (keep on plugging, at least as a non human the staff won't kick you!).

As always, I'm monitoring the tweetstream...

See you tonight!

Sometimes life intercedes

Last night was Saturday Night @MerlottesBar and I was blippin the tunes when on around 9pm CDT I got a TXT, family emergency! I ended up in the ER on SoBe with a nephew who was visiting for Srping Break. He had fallen and hit his head. Well after a CT scan it was overnight observation witn a re-scan today. Thankfully he will be fine.

It's Smooth Sunday @MerlottesBar tonight. I need to take a personal day just to get caught up on sleep and other things... Feel free to blip your smoothest tunes as you enjoy the evening, as always, I'll be watching the tweetstreams...

Props to Fangtasia's new DJ @Dj_Midori , you may not be human, but you have a great ear. Throw some tunes and love to the folks in Bon Temps.

See ya on the tweetstream!

Oh and no matter whay you might "hear" on Twitter, there IS a Bon Temps La. in the Twitterverse. Nuff said.

Hump Day @MerlottesBar Tonight!

It's Hump Day @Merlottes bar tonight and I haven't even written about anything since before LAST Wednesday night. My nights are starting to blur. Sunday night the bar was closed and that was good. I've mentioned I have another "gig" at SoBe due to my error of sittingin for a DJ friend one night at Pearl.  Well it's getting to be life in the fast lane once again. Hopefully this time I have enough good friends to keep me grounded. This bit of DJing I do @MerlottesBar is actually very helpful. Simple blippin for the joy of the music and the joy it brings. 

That's all for now, gonna post about last night in a few

The DJ @MerlottesBar is seriously behind on posting!

So I checked and I have not posted since when? Wednesday? I am so missing posting and my memory is not the best. The tweetstream is always there but it's a bear to wade back that far.  I'll try and prepare a Q&D post on my observations from Hump Day Wednesday Night, Old Skool Thursday, DFF Friday and Saturday Night's Dance fun. Boy, I am glad Sam closed the bar on Sunday!

It's Monday again, Ladies Night @MerlotesBar (at least until football season)

The DJ @MerlottesBar is not a human juice box! [UPDATED]

OMG!!! Last night (Tuesday night) @MerlottesBar was intense! @SookieBonTemps was back at work along with @TaraMaeThornton and @KitchenBitch.  Sam wasn't around, weird, he usually is nowhere to be found when the moon if full...  Anyways, it was also Doubleshot Tuesday, (ok the FIRST Doubleshot Tuesday), and the crowd was pretty big. Just seems whenever @SookieBonTemps works more people come to @MerlottesBar, Sam should have her work all the time ;)! Where was I, sorry late night...

I started out the night not telling anyone it was DoubleShot Tuesday, instead I blipped some doubleshots prefaced by asking patrons to guess the musical theme. Finally @Newbloodfan started guessing, wrong, so I just gave it up and told them.  After that I was just blippin doubleshots and everyone was having fun until my tweetstream monitor (Me=>TechnoMage) picked up that @FelipedeCastro was headed to Bon Temps and @MerlottesBar! I quickly sent out an alert and from there it rippled out. As you know, @FelipedeCastro is King over Louisiana, Arkansas and Nevada, (and probably other places, who knows, vampire politics!). @Jesiryu has posted about him and his dealings with @EricNorthman and @SookieBonTemps.  The King apparently wanted to meet with @SookieBonTemps about somthing to do with her "powers" and value to him.  From thier body language and how animated Sookie was it didn't look like it was a cordial exchange.  I was too far away, and of course the music was loud enough I didn't hear it. Again check on @Jesiryu for details.

They seemed to have finished and @FelipedeCastro was enjoying a TruBlood when who walks in! @TheMagister!!!  That vamp creeps me out! @EricNorthman came in right after him! I sounded another tweet alert for @poeticimmortal, @AmusingChaos, @VampireBill and @JessicaHamby to get to @MerlottesBar ASAP! They all responded, though @VampireBill did tell @JessicaHamby to stay home on account of @TheMagister being there. I helped @VampireBill warp time and space, (Me=>TechnoMage), as he was in Shreveport at Fangtasia to get back quickly. He stayed outside to stand guard.

Apparently @TheMagister was there for @FelipedeCastro! The King was none too pleased, even though I was back at the DJ stand I could hear what they were saying. This is where it gets "interesting" for me.  I can be pretty cheeky, (@smeykunz has rubbed off on me), so I started blippin tunes, still in the form of doubleshots, with either titles or lyrics that went along with the conversation @TheMagister, @FelipedeCastro, and @EricNorthman (ne @EricNorthman2 out of tweets) were having.

This is how it went:

Tears for Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule the World
Tears for Fears - Shout!,
Thompson Twins - Hold Me Now
Thompson Twins - Doctor! Doctor!
Prince and The Revolution - Let's Go Crazy
Prince and The Revolution - Take Me With U
Sweet - Ballroom Blitz
Thin Lizzy - Jailbreak (not a doubleshot, Sweet was pretty much a 1 hit wonder)
Queen w David Bowie - Under Pressure
Queen - We Will Rock You
Queen - We Are The Champions (tripleshot, fit the conversation)
Cheap Trick - Dream Police
Cheap Trick - Surrender
The Police - Message In A Bottle
The Police - Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic
Dire Straits - Walk of Life
Sound of Music (OST) - So Long, Farewell (@TheMagister left)
Dire Straits - Money For Nothing

Also, i blipped "Walk of Life" because @EricNorthman and @SookieBonTemps began their own conversation, couldn't really hear it, but Sookie was mad! That was easy to tell and The Viking took a vial out of his pocket and drank it and stormed out.

That's a pretty cheeky set of songs to be playing while three of the most powerful Vampires around are arguing right in front of you. I was pretty nervous, to say the least. My good friend @kikkitigerwolf had been watching the tweetstream and noticed my whispering, praying, muttering about not wanting to get drained of become a human juice box and lent a kind ear, (wasn't actually @MerlottesBar fortunately), hence the title of this post.

After that Mr Snarky Pants @VampireBill deciced it was time to play the Indeed game. The Indeed game is a game where whenever @VampireBill says Indeed you have to drink(UPDATE: that cheeky @smeykunz invented it!).  Well we were all wired already so I told Sookie to take out the top shelf booze and we all got our favorites and we ALL played Indeed! Well then I HAD to blip the following

Jimmy Buffett - Margaritaville
Jimmy Buffett - Why Don't We Get Drunk
Rockwell - Somebody's Watching Me

Finally @SookieBonTemps yelled LAST CALL, and we shooed everyone out of @MerlottesBar. I had @SookieBonTemps put the tab on my account, I've been "offered" a very lucrative gig, (more on that another time), so I could handle it.

@SookieBonTemps seemed very sad when she left. I headed back to SoBe where, well like I said, that's for another time.

It's usually Hump Day Wednesday @MerlottesBar tonight, With the Moon still so full and all not sure if Sam will be around and not sure what is going on. 

At any rate, see ya on the tweetstream!
