    yo.

    sorry to hear bout that. sounds like a bum time. it reminds me of the
    time we had andrea parker play at out night. she cost us ALOT and did
    the same thing. i remember one moment when the battle break she was
    playing ran out, she wasn't ready with the next record and scratch
    samples started sounding. it was quite upsetting since we where
    expecting to hear some music of her style and she played the mostPLAYED
    hip hop generica...POORLY.
    somethings got to make those good moments seem good...

    brad

    p.s. i'm guilty of playing rump shakers inst during trip hop sets!
    guess i'm cheesy, too!!! : ]
