all i'm gonna say here is that i was saying about a month ago on here
that a good dj connects with the audience (whether you call that a
performance i don't know) and most people disagreed. you don't need to
see the dj to get this connection. so alex's point of a visual
performance i think is a good point. it's more than just one tune then
the next tho, a dj responds to an audience.
313 goes around in circles a lot of the time doesn't it?

Interesting concept. Would you apply the same thinking to a turntabalist?
Does a live band need to put on a show if the music in itself is wholly
sufficient. If you take it one step further then why bother with DJs at all?
You may as well just play pre-recorded mix CDs in clubs, at least that way
you can guarantee a flawless, perfectly mixed set of all the best music.

since when did a dj have to put on a 'show'?
oh, wait, I know, since all the idiots who put dj's on pedestals wanted to
see one.
dj = disc jockey, someone who plays records yeah? thats the entertainment.
you know, the sounds coming out the speakers.
f**k me, have a dance, lose yourself in music, hey, maybe even try some
social interaction - give it a whirl - sometimes it can be a rewarding
experience.
don't watch the dj, thats for f**king idiots.
