Thrillho:
Well obviously it depends on the DJ, and what kind of a DJ.

I mean, do you mean a DJ like one who would preside over the Hacienda, or one on the radio, or like the one that would be backing the Beastie Boys?

alyosha:
DK, all three.  And I'm talking about the Alan Freeds and Vin Scelsas out there.  THose DJ's who aren't afraid to play controversial or even unpopular music.  The DJ's who don't subscribe to the "play the top 100 and never tell you anything interesting" philosophy.  They're rare, but they exist.  This si where I shamelessly plug Sirius Sattelite Radio-- The only place I've ever heard any sort of indy rock on the radio.  WHy?  because all of the good DJ's have gone sattelite, to fet away from the corporate stations (ie clear channel, infinity, et al) who want them to keep to the list, and not do anything controversial.

Being a good DJ means knowing how to pick the playlist, knowing how much to talk, and what to say-- And knowing when to flip the record over and play the "B" side.

If there weren't DJ's with balls in the 50's and 60's Rock and Roll never would have been played.

I've always said that I'd love to be a DJ, only 40 years ago.

If nothing else, he's produced some shockingly bad stuff; Leftover Crack are terrible; that Nirvana box set was ridiculous.

Leftover Crack are ace. YOU ARE WRONG
