I think Farley has become "saved." Either him or Frankie Knuckles...get the two confused sometimes. I've been knocking my head about this for a while. The most intensely religious experiences I've ever had have been (with one or two exceptions) on the dance floor, listening to house and techno. The reason that people "worship" or more appropriately "pay reverance to" the DJ is because the DJ is the modern shaman/priest. The first person to recognize that DJ'ing CAN be a godly force will be able to move MOUNTAINS, both artistically and otherwise. Curt Franklin (sp?) got it all wrong when he tried to introduce people to Christianity through hip-hop and new hack swing (pun intended). He should've been using house. peace lks --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
