I use to be a DJ, for 6 years in fact. True story. Okay so I wasn't on an actual FM/AM radio station nor did I go to local clubs & spin on expensive equipment with a crate of records next to my feet - I was an online radio DJ. I started with a station called "Liquid Dreams" then moved on to "Inferno Radio" and finally my best friend & I decided after a few years that we didn't need/want to be managed anymore and bought our own station. It started out as "Minx Radio" & was a mix of everything. Later it evolved into "Dirty Monkey Radio" & became more of a hobby rather than the almost full time gig it use to be in the beginning. I was the 80s/New Wave 80's DJ and of course, the SKA DJ. I miss it sometimes and I was really good at it, if I do say so myself.
