After recently attending a gig in London, mentioning no names, They said that the act was a “live” one. As this DJ was a well-known and respected DJ/producer, I as the punter was expecting a live act on stage wiv pc’s,moniters and mixing desk, maybe even some new stuff that no-one had heard before.
What did we get?
The so-called DJ mixin on the decks with their vinyl. They may have slipped in a dub-plate or 2, maybe even hooked up to the system with a cd but this was def not a live act.
Yes they may have been alive at the time, yes they may have been on stage, but the flyer was very deceiving and i am sure that there are many more guilty parties out there who print simular claims but dont come up with the goods.
LIVE ACTS ARE VERY IMPORTANT! We must never forget this before we get swallowed up in the commercialism of it all.
