You just gotta have a good time.

1. Tiredness
2. Stress
3. Generally not being in the mood
Strangely though, it always seems that I'm best at mixing the day after a big night out, when I'm on a bit of a comedown

1: being tired.
2: taking too long to match them, then the transition is al out of wack and it sound horrible.
3: having my parents tel me to turn the bass down, then i cant hear it and i say screw it.
4: despressed is really not too good either.

1. Something that no one has touched on - Playing on decks and mixer that are way too low. Can the set up be higher than my waist? My back just gives out after about an hour.
2. Not having any beer before playing (I find a pint or two takes the edge off).
3. When someone tries to come and "help" you. Put records away, help you pick records, give commentary. Two words: Fuck Off.

I'm going to invest in one of those shirts. I know people don't do it to fuck you up intentionally, but they always start talking to you when you are midway in a transition. It's annoying and most of the time I just pretend not to hear them. If I had the shirt I would point to it and hopefully they'd get the hint.

The phone. I was 3 tracks into a mix the other day and both transitions were pretty good. Then the phone rang and of course nobody else is gonna answer it, 'twas a telemarketer. I get back into the mix and my next 3 mixes are HORRIBLE. The beatmatching sucked, the transitions sucked, the mixing just plain sucked. I gave up after 5 tracks.
Fucking telemarketers.
