hmmm me thinks i've taken a big step towards taking this dj caper seriously... i got a record bag for my birthday AND i sent out some demo's. oooh almost a year to the day i first started... anyone else have a more rapid rise (not saying im gifted or anything), like i know "readiness" cant be measured by days or years but curious to see how quickly certain people feel comfortable in getting up there to perform. i know i only have and i still shake and pee my pants when i play in front of people... even if its just to another person in my room.

only little dribbling pee, minimum flowage.

I have been reading up a lot on DJing and mixing, and i have decided, just this very moment, that i am now going to save up and purchase my very own decks for the first time.

You guys have inspired me (well, not really, the music has really)

I am so excited now!!!

I'm gonna start a new job in the coming uni holidays, and next semester i am going to be doing part time uni, and working, so hopefully it won't take me too long to save up.

Jizza mate, what's the most people you've played in front of?

Just askin since you bought your decks only a few weeks before I got mine...

Posted by jizza on May-20-2004 00:37:

Haha it only looks clean cos I took the pics on the day I had moved desks around and shit, so everything's kinda organised in the photos. It's a bit messier now... you should see the rest of my room, there's shit everywhere, but I plan on keeping my babies pretty

thanks webbie! It was worth waiting/saving for, sexy little thing ain't she.
