...as I said, *for me*, cycloid kicked ass, and ,yes, being loyal to 'homies' is cool...(though that wasnt my point, my point was the *music*)
Ultimately it's what the individual prefers that matters, and personally I like May's energy, he *is* a real performer, but the last 3 times I've seen him werent nearly as fantastic as the first time he played here in 1991/1992. respect to the fact that you think he's the *best*, but (in my own opinion, of course) there are others who rock harder, technically speaking, on the dj front...just look at dj's like noise & roc raida, now there's some skills...or back to the tek side...rolando... I'd take a plastikman set over May any day, and if you want live shit then voiteck would be my preference if playing at a party at the same time as May. It's all personal preference, of course, and that's all good, cause the world would be damn dull if it werent for individuals...but when you've been seeing the same thing for the last ten years you start to look forward to something fresh, or at least a different take on something old. 3jane _________________________________+ sit after walking breathe after talking savour the space between thoughts _________________________________+ you wrote: Well, being loyal to homeboys and homegirls is cool but I am yet to witness any DJ or live act outshine Derrick May. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Get your free email from AltaVista at http://altavista.iname.com
