Lee Wilson and Iyeoka at the Blue Wave Gallery
Much props to Lee Wilson for producing a great show at the Blue Wave at the Four Point Channel, which of course included Iyeoka and very impressive performances by JT and Sparlha Swa. It was so good to hang with Iyeoka and friends. She gave such a rousing performance of Blink of an Eye, which I hope she posts on her website soon.

DJ Tom, Thursday nite residence at Whiskey Park
My brother Thomas Phan, aka DJ Tom, have shared the love of house music, specifically deep house music since Ben Watt and Jay Hannan’s release of Lazy Dog and going to Miami for Winter Music Conference. Now with all the hip hop I’m doing, Tom laments that I’m not doing enough house music beyond some of the remix work I do. There’s only so many hours in a day….
