With music always in the forefront of his career choices, Bay Area
DJ Weapon’s catalog includes audio engineering, music production, and even a “short stint as a struggling karaoke singer.” However, in the past few years, he decided to pick up DJing, a decision that he fatefully made when a friend was looking for a resident DJ for Infusion Lounge on Tuesdays. Thanks to his musical background and determination, it didn’t take long for him to grasp the concept, and just recently he celebrated three years as a resident DJ at Infusion Lounge. We spoke with DJ Weapon about his moniker, playing top 40 clubs, and where his DJ proceeds will go during the whole month of August. He plays every Tuesday at
Infusion Lounge.
Is DJing your full-time job?
DJing is definitely a full time job. Last year I played about 200 shows. That's over every other day. But it is not my only job. I am a partner in a bar and restaurant group, Pour Guys Inc, which owns two bars in S.F.: Tempest and Louie's. That is my other full-time job. I'm also really good at Scrabble, and thinking of going pro!
