You’d think that, especially when you’re not the best DJ to not spend all the coin you’ve got on some overpriced headphones because you’re not exactly racking up gigs and stuff… However, few weeks ago I’ve been to a party (the party was crap, the music was crap, the dj’s were not bad but not good either,…) and 3/4 DJ’s there had some Dre’s.
I think that most DJ’s these days want to profile themselves as trendy and stuffs, because it wasn’t the first time I saw that.
I’m afraid that there’re a bunch of DJ’s that see ‘DJ’ as a status, a title, and that know absolutely nothing about their gear.
(I’m not pointing fingers at anyone here, because obviously we’re here because we still care about those things, and because we know, maybe not expert level, our turf.)
