DIPLO @ DIESEL w/ DJ Nugget, CommonWealth Family and LazerCrunk


Last Night, Talk to Vinny and Nakturnal brought DIPLO into Pittsburgh and it turned out to be a really great party.  The place was packed, the crowd was amazing and it was a nice change of pace to see one of the bigger nightclubs in town host something along these lines.  I was lucky enough to be one of the openers along with LazerCrunk (DJ's Cutups & Keebs) and local hip-hop act CommonWealth Family.

The night started off around 5:30pm at Club Cafe where RedBull hosted an info session with DIPLO.  It was great to see a who's who of Pittsburgh's music scene all in one place.  Everyone from emcees to producers, DJ's, record store owners and promoters were in the building.  Shouts to Danny from Redbull and DJ Zimmie for orchestrating the event.  Chairman Mao from Ego Trip was also in the house to conduct the interview with DIPLO and head up the Q&A session that directly followed. 

After the info session I grabbed my DJ gear and went straight to Diesel to get ready for the main event.  I went on first followed by CommonWealth Family (who I also performed with/played their tracks) then LazerCrunk and finally DIPLO.  Check out the pics below and peep how crazy it was.  Big shout to star photographers Jordan Beckham and Evan Sanders for also coming out to shoot the event.
