Hi Claire, how is it going?
Hi, I’m doing OK, I’ve been doing DIY daily jobs around the house. I went live on the first Saturday of lockdown playing cheesy party tunes so people could entertain their kids.
How did it go?
I had a huge response. Every DJ is doing house sets so I think people appreciated a good old-fashioned party night!
Too right! How did it compare with performing in a club?
I did struggle a bit because I like to read the crowd and adapt my sets as I go. Its hard playing on your own, it felt like I was just doing a radio show!
Have you seen much else on Facebook?
Lots of Drag Queens are going live most nights of the week which is fun! I try to catch as many shows as I can.
Any tips to keep our readers busy while in lockdown?
I think trying to get into a routine, maybe start by making your bed then find daily jobs to achieve. I find lounging around makes me feel depressed, so I just try to stay busy.
Go back to work, I miss my job so badly! Entertaining is a massive part of me, so I feel a bit lost! Oh, and I want to go to Nandos!
What do you miss the most?
My job and people, I miss chatting face to face, being able to go shopping and going out whenever I want to.
Any words of wisdom to keep us going?
Use this time to relax and do things you never have time for! Life is so hectic, look at this time as a gift! There is nothing we can do to change our situation so try to find the positives… Stay home & wash your hands!
