Thanks to @sadiehipindetroit for the shout out on @wdetdetroit this weekend with @anndelisi! Detroit’s best local shopping event, the Detroit Urban Craft Fair, is less than two weeks away - Dec 2nd and 3rd at the @masonicdet.
DUCF VENDORS: If you have a request or song dedication to another vendor, send it my way!
Looking forward to seeing all the DUCF crew again - this will be the 18th annual DUCF and I’ve somehow been DJing the event since 2011, back when I barely owned any holiday records.

Congrats to Kristi and Colin! It was a perfect day for an outdoor reception surrounded by nature and loved ones. Shout out to the guy on the dance floor who screamed out, “This guy doesn’t miss!” A crowd like this makes it feel easy. #vinylwedding #vinyldanceparty #vinylweddingdj #michiganwildlifeconservancy
New mix of 45 45s is up on mixcloud! (Since a couple people have asked - these mixes are more obscure finds, not what you’d hear at a wedding dance party. The well of forgotten gems from the 45 era goes deep!) #4545s #45rpm #detroitsoul #45rpmrecords #45records www.mixcloud.com/djdavelawson
Congrats to Natalie and Rob! After postponing their wedding last spring, it finally happened and went off without a hitch (other than them getting hitched of course). It was awesome working with @shorelineeventdesign plus the team at the @shinolahotel #detroitwedding #detroitweddingdj #vinylwedding #vinylweddingdj #shinolahotel #shinolahotelwedding
Congrats to Jed and Kaitlin! The heat couldn’t stop this dance party, and the toasts were theatrical, including wigs and planned hecklers. And if I heard that David Greene left NPR to be a professional wedding officiant, I would believe it. Always great to be back at @thejamhandy and to work with @adriennenutter! #jamhandywedding #detroitwedding #detroitvinyldj #detroitweddingdj #45rpmwedding #jamhandy #detroitvinylwedding
New mix of 45 45s is up on mixcloud and my site! Rare soul, garage, popcorn, jump blues etc. Shout out to @hellorecordsdetroit where I found most of these over the winter. Check out their new Lincoln Park storefront if you haven’t yet. #4545s #45rpm #45rpmrecords #45mix #45rpmmix #vinylmix https://www.mixcloud.com/djdavelawson/45-45s-vol-6/
