I've watched some of the best DJs that have ever come to midwest and 
find most of them tend to be in their mid to late thirties. I think it's 
great that they still enjoy the scene and are willing to share their extreme 
talents with us young folk. At first I was surprised to find a Dj in his 
thirties at all (Yes, I'm young and naive :)... It's great to keep this 
passing down instead of us younger ones thinking we're creating it as a 
follow up to Generation X... because to be honest, most people that rave at 
or under the age of 20 think that they're part of a whole big new movement 
and they're making it. Maybe it's just because I enjoy a lot of the older 
music myself and have a lot of older friends that I'm not naive enough to 
believe this. None the less. You older ones almost sound ashamned admitting 
to being 'old' and liking this all still and I say, More Power to Yah... Rave 
on :)
