to each his own..some people don't mind hanging out in the back and just listening to the beats....but there are those that prefer front and centre...many, many TOTA's btw...front and centre is where i have met many of you..

i personally like vibing off of a dj...and there are certain dj's that are amazing at the interaction part of the set as well as technically superior...eddie halliwell is one that comes to mind...you can't just s label people who prefer high energy dj's as not knowing what they're talking about..that's just fucking retarded...

c'mon..you all know some of your best nights have been with dj's that have been going nuts in a booth..

I can honestly say my best nights out have been with good friends with DJs spinning where I honestly didn't know who was spinning because I was too busy having fun.

IMO....if you need the DJ to entertain you with their antics then maybe you are listening to the wrong music for you.

Going to Lot 332 on a Friday or whatever other club, is indeed going to a club to socialize and not to see the DJ.

bad example sasha does not prance around like some half assed trance jock.

A combination of braving the elements and gearing up for a big night made the crowd especially exuberant. The bad weather deterred the masses so although it was full it wasn't rammed. Lots of random shenanigans, entertaining stories and high spirits. Tunes were classic Porterhouse - an infectious combination of bumping and funky. Really appreciated the extra 1/2 hr he did, he doesn't like long sets but you could tell that he was still having a blast.

p.s. On the side topic of dj interaction, I'm a huge fan of it. If the dj is subdued it doesn't take away from the quality of the music but it certainly does add to the overall atmosphere if they're playing great tunes and having fun doing so. However no amount of dj antics will make up for a poor quality set.

I never said i needed to be entertained by the dj..i said i like it when a dj is connected to a dance floor and interacts with the crowd..it's an energy thing for me....i don't look at dj's as nameless, faceless music players..like a jukebox....certain dj's have immense personalities that come out when they are behind the decks....

thanks for letting me know that i've been listening to the wrong type of music for almost two decades......like i said..different strokes for different folks..there's no right or wrong...
