Showtrotta had a fire too! -- Erol Alkan this weekend
Erol Alkan @ Coachella 2008 (day 2) (xxxxxjenny)

I'm not even kidding. There was a fire at Webster Hall. There was a fire at Zebulon. There was a fire at the House of Yes. AND there was a fire in 'Week in Dance' writer Showtrotta's apartment building. It was in the apartment right over hers, so even though she is relatively lucky, her apartment bathroom and kitchen were destroyed from the water damage. Most importantly, she is okay, but she'll need a little time until things get back to normal.
Don't forget that Erol Alkan is playing Studio B on Saturday, and please post your weekend 'dance' suggestions in the comments.....AND MAKE SURE YOU OWN A FIRE EXTINGUISHER.

I hate to reveal that as they're gonna be too many people coming up... but SebastiAn is playing Studio B next wednesday. He'll be with Yuksek and Brodinsky. Oh so hot a party... I'm so gonna burn the dancefloor with groovy moves.

I heard people are already sleeping on the sidewalk outside Studio B.

Burn down the disco
Hang the blessed DJ
Because the music that they constantly play
IT SAYS NOTHING TO ME ABOUT MY LIFE

Music is more than just lyrics. But many electronic/dance tracks do have vocals. "Music that DJs play" is a huge and varied set of music. There's no way to describe all of it with one sweeping statement.
In closing, I hope that you find no arson or murder to be necessary in resolving this matter.
