[bomp] "I Am a deejay, and what should I playyyyyy...?"
What a totally FCCing specious argument this is.
I get such a kick out of people who spin records in a bar and think they're
putting on some sort of legendary performance.
(I'm not talking about anyone here. Or maybe I am. But probably not.)
"You should play popular songs!" "You should play only obscure songs!"
Jesus Friggin' Alou. Okay, let me dust off something from my "Duh! File" for ya:
You're being paid to keep people in the room and keep 'em drinking. How do
you do this? You bring a whole gamut of records (or whatever you use) in the
style that they hired you to play, and then you start playing those records and
-- here comes the huge revelation -- you SEE WHAT WORKS, that night, in that
room, with those people. And whatever works, you keep doing it.
Sheesh.
P.S. ...and Linda made another lovely point: ain't nothin' wrong with a slow
dance or two, or five.
