DJ Edo

We called an abrupt end to the BBQ so we could run out and join Tony (one of my work colleagues) at the Hi Fi Club for the Australian Finals of the DMC DJ Championship. Tony's younger brother, DJ Edo (who also spent a few months earlier this year working at CSIRO), was one of the 26 competitors in this year's battle, so we showed up to check out his act and the scene at large. Although he didn't make it to the final round, DJ Edo had flair, style, and skills - he impressed us all and made his brother quite proud. We also enjoyed the performance of DJ D from Sydney - the only female competitor and also very impressive. The first round of 26 was followed by a break dancing exposition, which was followed by a performance by local act "Scars 45 Crew" - they were rubbish, and basically killed our buzz for the night. In any case, if you haven't been to an event like this, I highly recommend it.
