I guess I should be a little bit more specific in terms of what other
cultural phenomenon I was trying to reference.
I'm thinking of the U.K. Where Mega-Mega-Mega dance clubs are commonplace
and DJs are more like pop stars.
Would it be generally desirable or generally NOT desireable for the U.S. to
have a similar situation with regard to accessability within the consumer
marketplace?
That would have to be the king of all cyclical 313 threads. I'm gonna be
brief for once. I think *most* of us would like to see this get a little
more recognition, and *most* of us understand that there would be *some*
harm to the scene if Detroit techno went, and remained top 40.
