It couldabeen worse! One time my friend Jay was got
booed or heckled. Sometimes people can be so rude!
Dego from 4hero used to get a kick from clearing the
dancefloor....
Maybe you should have mixed it up a bit more. Give
them some of what they are used to then slay the
fuckers with bassline funk and if that doesnt kill
them. Maybe they dont deserve to be slayed by the
funk.
Keep on,

PS: I'lld like to seize this moment in time to extend
my most high salutations to those DJs that strive to
play what they like and not what the loud majority is
used to. Funk is its own reward!
