Although i'm not a huge scratch dj follower, and i've never seen Mike perform(though i've heard him), here's my opinion: Mike, and q-bert, and a-trak and all those guys will most probably come out on top when it comes to sheer speed and dexterity. Where Koala shines is in originality and overall interesting material and mixing, rather than in lightning speed scratching, which tends to get REALLY boring after awhile. Consequently, i've thoroughly enjoyed every Kid Koala performance i've seen, whereas i've become bored towards the end of other scratchmasters' shows.

Tomorrow night (Tuesday Aug. 17th) Kid Koala, Money Mark, and Mix Master Mike will be performing an "After Beastie Boys Show" show at Clutch Cargo's in Pontiac. Only $10 including TicketMaster charge. Should be neat. (Sorry if this isn't considered "on topic".) :) Finally get to see Kid Koala vs. Mix Master Mike. My money is on Koala, but there be others on the list who think elsewise.... --- Peace Hugs and Unity Jason J. Tar W. W. J. D? (What would Jason Do?) http://pilot.msu.edu/user/tarjason ICQ@13792120
