    For sure, totally agree w/ that. At least I could keep track of the play count in Traktor so I wasn’t OVERplaying them 😉

    (Yes, needle on record. Its my age)

    The gig nerves weren’t too bad. I think that the advice others have given about starting with a very small gig is great advice. It was mostly a large group of my friends along with some others that I didn’t know so while I was a bit nervous, I knew that there really wasn’t a whole lot of pressure. It was awesome and a lot of fun though. I actually just booked another gig which is actually going to be a very large party, 150-250 people for Halloween. THIS one I am nervous for 😉 It will only be from 7pm -11pm though and they want me to play a lot of house, electronic type music and some halloween hits so it should be a pretty easy play list to put together at least. I can’t wait. I am sure that I will have some pre gig nerves for sure when this one starts. At least I’ll be able to hide behind a costume of some sort. The theme is “Intergalactic Space Universe Halloween”, so now I have to pick an awesome costume that I can still be comfortable in and mix well 🙂

    Thanks for all the replies everyone, this site has been a great resource.

    Yes, it’s padded between the sections. It also has a pocket in front designed for an iPad which I do not have lol. Very nice bag.

    I recently got a 13″ MBP, 2.8ghz, 8gb of ram, 750gb hdd for $1149 refurbished. The thing screams. I was worried that the 13″ screen would not be enough but I have no complaints, only had X amount to spend and wanted to get the best computer for the money. I’m sure next time I will probably wait a little longer for the 15″ but this was my first Mac and I already had the controller that I was dying to use w/ a mac. I am definitely not disappointed w/ the 13″ and after i got mine my wife actually ended up getting the same one from the refurbished page. I also looked at deals on craigs list and just didn’t want to get one too old, figured if I want at 15″ in 6 mos or a year, I can sell this one for a good price. Like two of my buddies that produce music told me, once you go mac, you’ll never go back. And I definitely will never buy a PC again.
