Save yourself the effort & expense Folkie, buy the CD, stay home and drop a
pill. (Then in a day or two when you're feeling the after-effects, put the
CD back on and try and remember why the fuck you thought it was worth
listening to ;)

That depends on whether the Dj is a Dj, or someone who just 'spins'. Sadly
the latter is more common place nowadays. Often, I didn't necessarily go to
'watch' the DJ, it was the sound that was more important.

Regardless if one's a fan of the music or not, the fact remains that a d.j.
on a stage is not much to *watch*. It kinda begins and ends there, as far as
I'm concerned,.

Fair go, DJ culture did get somewhat out of control during the 90s, but I
have been to many an 'event' where the main attraction is the DJ. Also been
to many events where you know that the DJ is 'somewhere' around ;)
I am a technohead, and the witnessing of producers like Jeff Mills have been
some of the best experiences of my life :)

..i like seeing bands! not some self important noddy twiddling knobs
grooving away to himself behind a desk with big ears (headphones).



overly critical and simplistic, but i've never gone to a club to see a dj
'play' and dont intend to - thats for other people. when i go out to see
live music i look fwd to one or two opening bands before the main band, its
just more kosher... =)

What's wrong with DJs opening?
Just curious why you think so :)
