Hi, I have a question about an old Dave Clarke classic. I was spinning last night at the Kings Island Midwest Netraver afterparty and some guys stole some of our equipment. Gone is a very nice 600 Dollar "Blue" mixer, some slipmats and at least one of my records. They stole my copy of Dave Clarke Presents Red Vol2. It was the original release in yellow sleeve and red vinyl. I was wondering if anybody can tell me how limited that record is and if there is ANY chance finding it again. I want to listen to it while I serve my jailtime after I found and KILLED those motherfuckers. I'm not a DJ by any means but this party was a way to listen to my records on a good loud sound system. I'm more of a collector type of guy and my records are like kids to me. So I probably should have taken some precausions and just put my crate of records in my car after I was done with my set. Are stolen records a common DJ problem ? What do DJ's do to make sure that they leave with all the records that they came with ? NP: Dave Clarke - Red Three

As are mine, and this is why I never let them out of my sight. The sad rule of thumb is that if you can't see them, chances are that someone has already taken them. This has happened to so many people I know that it's sick. I don't even need to get into the moral implications of some moron at a party stealing a dj's records...it's just plain wack.

Yep, you probably should have taken some precausions but putting your records in the car is the second worse thing you can do because people see you stashing them there, then see you walking away and have all night to break your window and grab them.

> Are stolen records a common DJ problem ?

Yes, very. Like I said, the only solution is to care them with you *ALL* night long. Sure it's a pain in the ass but if you'd rather replace them then carry them, put them down somewhere and see if they're still there in 10 minutes!

See above...or have a friend babysit them while you have fun. I have seen dj's who would lock their box with a paddlelock and then chain it to a pole, but this won't stop some fucked up e-head from pissing on it for a laugh. Sorry you got burned, just be happy it wasn't a flight case full of dub plates. peace, brock.
