dj's with an exquisite profile, such as mayday's, are expected to perform. there is so much background behind the person, that the average audience don't understand REALLY where they are comin' from, and just how FAR they have travelled, let alone understand what they have seen and heard over an extended career.
the crowd may have high expectations these can vary greatly these can alter the mood of the room the room may be inadequate acoustically the room may be unsuitable in many different ways the monitor might not be able to separate different frequencies the tonearm could be bent the system could run feedback the drinks could be spiked the cables may be loose somebody said something stupid somebody could be hangin' toooo close the fish might have not been the catch of the day the wine could have been oxidized the bed at the hotel may have been used inappropriately the flight may have been too long the queue at the airport may have been too long the local rag traders my have written some b.s. about some m.f. the crossfader may be leaking the crossfader may be lost on the floor somewhere it goes on, and on, ...and on and on there are an untold number of factors that determine the absolute nature of a situation.. and the nature of a dj set for all the m.f's in sydney tonite; please accept derrick for anythang he presents and don't analyse anything while you there..just enjoy the life that he bring the debonair. ----- Original Message ----- From: Odeluga, Ken <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: allnight <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Org <313@hyperreal.org> Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2002 1:55 AM Subject: RE: [313] may's djing (was Lost - further details) > Strange as it may seem, the numbers of people who can actually remember him > playing his own classic stuff - like Icon, are few and far between ... > although Strings of Life, I've heard even Surgeon play!
