What up. Sweaterfunk is my shit. Thanks for providing the bay with the boogie. Got a gig tomorrow you might dig. It is a world psych night called AFREAKA! including music from Turkey, India, Africa, Jamaica, and right here in the U.S. of A. My guest is Deejay OM and he'll be dusting off some crazy shit he has in his collection. PLUS, we'll be screening the 1969 sexploitation psych flick The Stewardesses based in SF and is in 3D!!! We'll be hooking up everyone with 3D glasses so they can get their psych vision on! Hope to see you some time soon.
Peace.
