Just curius when you go to a club or event, do you prefer the dj booth up high like avalon or ruby skye, or down low to where the dj booth is at eye level?

I totally know what you mean about the neck hurting from looking up all night at Avalon! Same thing happens at the Mayan. That's why I don't like the DJ booth set up high either.

I say eliminate the DJ booth and put the DJ in the middle of the dancefloor!!! So he can feel like he's part of the crowd!

The only reason I DO like the booth high up, is precisely because you can't see whats going on. Nothin crazier than John Digweed owning your brain with his ridiculously perfect mixes and all you can see is his serious ass face up there at the Mayan.
Lawler @ Avalon last June, they had a small divide in front of the decks so you couldnt see his hands.
Personally, I think its awesome, especially with technically perfect DJs like them, because you cant see when the mix occurs, you cant see what channels are in, you cant see what is playing what, all you can do is listen, and get owned by the sound.
So I like both.

i think a 2-3 foot platform is perfect. if ruby skye's stage setup was at spundae la's height with the front cordoned off, that club would be PERFECT.
