    Okay, that makes sense.

    A guy wouldn’t leave me alone. So, I stopped the music and yelled some obscenities at him. Why I stopped the music? To make it known I was having problems and to gain as many witnesses as possible.

    First of all, radio stations illegally receive payments to play songs. Yet, I know what you’re referring to. I think most of it is because mobile DJs are considered small fry and not worth the hassle. Yet, I did hear of a local karaoke buy being shut down because he didn’t own the songs he played or something like that. If I read it right on this very site, some countries force the DJ to pay a fee for digital music. I’m not clear on that.

    Even if I don’t know you (I mean..I do a bit now after interview 😉 ) I love the way you think. Agree with you about all the things you said. Specially about dubstep. I am more kinda melodic type of person. Music must have actual phrases: from piano to forte and back to piano and not just fortissimo 24/7.

    Thanx for the comment. I agree with you about music.

    I agree. Looks like they’re going out of business. When you DJ for broke bars, it ain’t pretty. One of the things they like to do is blame the DJ for them going broke. Not only did I witness this, I experienced this.

    This is how it is in Orlando. First, you spend about ten dollars on gas. Then, you pay five to ten dollars for parking. Already you spent about fifteen to twenty dollars. Then, there’s the door. I think it’s about ten bucks. Thirty dollars already gone. The drinks? Seven and up for watered down crap. You’re spending forty to seventy dollars to hang around a bunch of people you don’t even like. As for catering to the younger crowd, I’ve been preaching for over a year that is not a wise to choice to make nowadays. Young people are broke. Truth be known, I sometimes hate catering to them. Some make all these demands and don’t tip. Don’t even say thank you or buy the DJ a drink for going out of their way to play their request. Last but not least, I told myself that if I ever own a club, I am not going to have VIP. What that does is cause class elitism among the patrons in your club. People came to have a good time. They didn’t come there to be reminded of their social status in life.

Vinyl is a way of life a sub-culture so it aint gonna go away that easily if at all. Forget the format and focus on the message.

    There are turntables that cost about a hundred bucks that you can turn records into mp3s.

    For those who enjoy carrying milk crates, more power to them.
