heheheh.
It's funny that you mention this as 'name dropping' since you damn well
know those ARE their names. Just like when you were posting about
'mark', 'tom' and 'kirsty' last august. :-P
I had a conversation with another stateside pal the other day about how
brits (and most other europeans) tend to call each other by their
dj/producer names and rarely by their real names. It came down to us
trying to figure, out of the whole d&b scene, how many real names we
didn't know. The answer was only a few...but hey, we're smart, well
traveled and read a lot!
Personally, I find the practice a little silly, but I guess it saves
confusion if you've got a bunch of people with the same name.
In the nouturn/virus/dsci4 crew, everyone's got different names, hence I
generally call them by the name their parents blessed (or in duncan's
case, cursed ;-) them with.
And sorry to upset you, but they ARE my friends.
Can't wait to see them all at WMC in a few days!

ps. You can call me 'cunt' like all the other little kids here! ;-)
