My wife's name is Camille, so we have the best DJ name ever.
The Captain and Camille.
We do, yeah, concerts and bars and parties and gigs and stuff.
I started like, well, back in the 80s, everyone used to take a turn playing records at the pizza place.
They had two turntables called Fellini's in Atlanta, where all the...
as my dad referred to them, dirtbags and low lives hung out.
Everyone in a band, of course.
But then in, I guess in the early 2000s, a friend of mine that worked at the great record store Other Music in New York, my friend Michael,
we started doing these nights and playing like a lot of weird psych folk as a it's a kind of a genre and we both love those records and we called that we called gurus galore and uh yeah and just when i wasn't doing the black crows i had this band called the crb we were like a little psychedelic folk rock little group that toured around and made a bunch of records
But we played two sets a night.
So it was kind of like Grateful Dead model, like very heady, trippy.
But the CRB, especially in California, we always had friends DJ the shows, doors open until after the show and in between sets playing records.
It's just something we've always done.
And my wife used to DJ before I met her and stuff.
By the way, if I could make money doing it, I would never do it.
If me and Camille could just play records, I would be the happiest person in the world.
You would stop performing?
