Q: So Weaver's the name? What's that about? You into basket making as well?
Weaver is the name yes! About, umm dunno really? Yeah I weave baskets all the time and sell them for a living. Haven't you heard of WEAVER BEAVER BASKETS? I also weave rugs too!
Q: How did you come up with that name?
Well when I first started DJ'ing I was bored at work one day and I asked my mate for a DJ name and the first word he said was WEAVER so I was like mad so I stuck with it. Not really a long story but it is the truth.
Q: You live in Sydney, Australia tell us what the hardcore scene is like there?
Yeah Sydney has one strong Hardcore scene here! We have parties every weekend pretty much which range from small underground parties around 350 to the huge scale events like UTOPIA which get around 10,000. There is a good following and dedicated people in Sydney. As for Australia, Sydney is by far leading in the Hardcore scene over Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide.
Q: Complete this sentence "I only drink ...... beer"
Well really I don't drink much beer, I usually like to get on the Vodka. If I was drinking beer it would have to be CORONAS with the lemon on top.
