Some of the best DJs are 40-50-ish. Sven vath is 43 I think.

so you must realize we need a breathe of fresh air...most of the DJs hit it big when they were in their 20s..and they are still out there in the field. We need new people.

Why not? My dad has a far more diverse taste in music than 90% of the people here and he's 50.

Hehe I know one well known DJ that has special ears that he has been born with. His hearing hairs have the ability to grow back after any damage. Quite handy when you are a DJ.

You asked a silly question... Djs have not been around long enough to make this decision.. i guess people grow out of the scene...

I doubt many djs in thier 70s would still be happy to make music in a scene filled drugs and youth.

The thread is about how long can one make it as a DJ as his 'career' .. and at 50 it sure will be hard to sell..
