You could say the same about nearly every touring DJ, can't you? How many
records can you bring with you unless you're using Final Scratch??? If you
play at Mills speed and play for Mills length, you will literally play a
full crate of records in one set. For the record, when he DJ'd at The End in
London recently, he was definitely searching for records throughout his set.
If it was planned, he is a great actor. Also, Derrick May does this more
than anyone from what I can tell, but when I only see him in one port, I
don't care.
