Hey Mrs. Wynell!

Wynell, this is a serious loss-the attic is one of the few steady parties left to play disco/house.
I am truly sorry to hear this-Me & Zoe will be out to see y'all each week this month. graemlins/cool_shades.gif

Sorry to hear this..
It was joy to play at the Attic. I loved being in a place that had my people around my same age. PRICELESS!!
Also a testing ground for my tracks before everyone got there again PRICELESS!!
Also a place that made move in ways I had not moved in years again PRICELESS!!!
Good luck to you Mr. & Mrs. Wynell and the Attic crew in all your future endevors!!!

I am going to make a serious effort to return to Chicago for this event. I returned to the party scene @ The Attic, I left Chicago after playing the 1st Attic picnic. GS Productions is responsible for my comming back to the DJ booth again after an almost 14 year absent.

Attic memories:
DHP member Suenomartino was on a tour and he stopped by Chicago. He wanted to see what a Chicago house party was like, so I took him to the Attic.
It was a great party and many DHP heads were there. It was a great night and I was really happy to share it. When I think of the Attic, that is one of the things that come to mind.
That and sitting at the bar talking shit with Rahaan, Jaime and Steve Price graemlins/rofl.gif

Sometimes you don't realize how special something is, until it's gone.
The Attic has been and always will be special to me, not because of the music, the sound system, or the venue itself.
It's been Mrs. Wynell, Lowell, Kelli, Zulu, Emannual, Reg, Ruth, Erica and the rest of the Attic family that made it a special place to be every 2nd, 3rd, & 4th Thursday of the month.
It's been the best DJ's, I feel, in the world who have given their time & talents to showcase at The Attic.
It's been the sense of a "real" community of people who love this music and want to keep it alive.
The spirit of The Attic can never end.... because it's in us all, already!
Let us, as that community, come together once more, to celebrate "LIFE" and our music! Together!!!! graemlins/OLA.gif
Thank you, Attic Family, for memories I will carry and cherish forever! graemlins/acclaim.gif

YOU GUYS ARE GETTING ME ALL MUSHY!!!! STOP THAT!!! WE'LL DEFINITELY BE BACK!!!
THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR THE KIND WORDS AND MEMORIES....OHH THE MEMORIES!!! WHAT A RUN AND WE'VE HAD A BALL!!!
LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN ASKING WHAT HAPPENED? ENDING THE ATTIC PARTIES FOR AWHILE WAS OUR DECISION...WE WERE NOT GIVEN THE BOOT OR ANYTHING. RIGHT NOW WE ARE VENTURING INTO OTHER BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES THAT REQUIRE LOTS OF TRAVEL, ENERGY, AND TIME. ONCE WE SQUARE THESE DEALS AWAY WE WILL BE BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER!!!
RON: I REMEMBER THAT PARTY LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY AND IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN I BELIEVE I HAVE SUENOMARTINO ON VIDEO TAPE smile.gif
LEONARD REMIX: WE WOULD BE HONORED TO HAVE YOU AT THE FINALE!!!
LEONARD PT. 6: THANK YOU FOR ALL THE PEP TALKS AND THE SUPPORT. YOU ARE ONE OF THE FEW DJ'S THAT WILL WALK INTO A PARTY AND PULL OUT YOUR WALLET!!! STAY REAL!!!
TONY: YES THERE WILL BE CD'S AND T-SHIRTS FOR SALE. IT WOULD BE A PLEASURE IF YOU AND FRANK COULD MAKE IT DOWN.
TO EVERYONE THANK YOU!!!!!!!

I've danced with you through family and friends announcements of Cancer, AIDS, Parkinsons, and many deaths. I've danced, cried, and prayed to your music. I was just saying how you were the one place that I could always rely on to dance my troubles away.
I could come in go to my corner and go back to yesteryear. In a world so full of pretense, and abrasiveness, you were to me the welcoming arms of comfort. I enjoyed the surroundings of people that looked like me, and who seemed to have the same spirit. Thanks for more memories. Good luck and God Bless.
p.s. To the resident dj's: Make sure you keep my Jeffrey Osbourne, and my Chaka in heavy rotation the last three Thursdays.

Wynell, y'all are my family too. Y'all were there for me when I had no job. Whenever I felt like my job was stressin' me and I needed a release, if nothing else was going on, I knew I could count on the Attic on Thursday to get my strees out and my dance on.
Much props to y'all. I know how hard it is to do it on the regular like that (even when you don't feel like it). That is true dedication to the scene and the music. Because y'all didn't just sit around and talk about doing it-you DID it. graemlins/thumbsup.gif graemlins/cool_shades.gif
