Hell no.. I only ever look at the counter as an indication of how fast I'm playing, NEVER for beatmatching, and only after checkin the crowd out would a I make a judgement on whether to bump it up or knock it back. But having said that, they are more of an interesting indicator as some people (expecially noobies) can't judge well what tempo they're at, and might have the courtesy to make life easier for the dj following them. Very considerate. While I'm talking about consideration, what's with selfish dj's dropping a track at like 1:58 if they start at 2? I ALWAYS finish 2 mins early as opposed to 5 minutes late, I'm not that precious. And what's with dj's stopping the previous guys/gals track halfway though, ultimate disrespect.. Maybe I should start an etiquette thread for dj's.. or maybe, i can't be arsed so I'll highjack this one! (sorry - bad etiquette!).. |

hehe thats cool man.. wait for the 'grow of electro' as i like to say and maybe one day you will.. personally each and every part of me is being owned by it right now and most probably for a long time to come, but i'll never limit myself to only one genre.. wades mix was great as i said before. |
Wont ever happen. I dislike it a lot. One or two tracks can be ok but the majority sucks to me. |

who does this? i now have a new policy, after having to start 10 minutes later than my set time on the last 3 occasions playing in a club.. my new policy is ill tell the dj - get off or ill throw you off. i dont care if its my best bud, or someone i've never met. you should do the same, and so on, and so forth :)
ps. talking about curtious djs? try someone who starts playing with the EQ's while im cueing up my first mix.. priceless.

Dave, I was ok with it because it was "Bullet in the gun", that has to come last in your set! But any other tune/dj.. pwoah... :whip: |
