Every DJ i saw there had problems with that mixer so I don't think that's a fair comment.
Shake had his cousin and a kid from the neighborhood come with him just to look after him, even help him get the records out of the bag, and they were, as I was, just really happy he even made it. He was so tired at the end he wanted to give up! I'm not saying his illness is an "excuse" for anything but Shake was fun and it doesn't really matter he played the same music. I mean, sometimes I hear a "similar" mix by dj after dj and that's ok if everything else is (crowd, atmosphere) works. I'll give an example - when Jeff was going through his big disco phase I swear I heard the most similar mix about 3 times and I enjoyed it everytime. I admit by the time I heard it the 3rd time I was recognising tracks but it was still GOOD. You need to drop the trainspotting and just chill and enjoy yourself.

I'm going to chime in on this one because well... It's anyone's right to dislike/like a set.However, when it's Shake...for me at least, it's a different thing. Shake is a good person.He is a businessman but is always kind and at least straight forward. He has always been-always will be. I grew up seeing his sets, always with a smile and always willing to talk to people, shake their hand.I remember the first time I saw him with a cane and then when I saw him in a wheelchair.It was quite a visual to see his health go up and down. Like or dislike, considering Shake's role in even the existance of this like...I doubt you'll find many of the "old timers" to agree with you. However, I hope Shake isn't more of a dissapointment to you...but in the long run perhaps someone who is more of a role model in the music make or listen to. --- Martin Dust <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Crikey!!!! > > As far as I'm concerned Shake is the man and I > couldn't care less if > he crashed every 12, at least you'd know he was > there.
