Yes, anybody can DJ. I can DJ. But not everyone can DJ well. There are a lot of DJ's out there who just suck. I guess DJ's out in Denver only have access to slammin' tracks if they all satisfy you. A quality world class DJ is hard to find. If you've ever really heard a world class set that kept you livin' on the dance floor all night then maybe you would realize that there is definitely an art to DJing. To date there is no-one that keeps me happier than my friend Bileebob when he spins. He keeps me on the floor so long I have to pay rent! He is a master and I could never even hope to slap down tracks the way he does. I watched him develop and I know it is so much more than just puttin' a needle on a record. Even in Detroit I have to wait through a lot of bullshit before I get to quality set that can take 10 lbs. right off me! There are a lot of fax's out there but not many of the real thing. I'd just love to have you at a party here in Detroit and see who *you* can hold hostage to the rhythm.
