Its just a money making machine and our society puts up with it by further feeding the problem. Up in state college the DJs are treated like gold and they get crowds 400+ thurs-sat. Never knew it took talent to change from kayne to 2 pac, but hey i must be missing something here.....
I can see where you are coming from, but it isn't lack of education, it's the changing of society. I'm sure that the big band generation were saying the same thing about Elvis and Buddy Holly. Think about it. Just four guys vs. twenty guys, no horns, multi-track recording, masses of girls going crazy, blue jeans... God forbid.

Very good point haha, but I dont like the way its going!!!!!

I think that, along with the other bits, were his way of trying to justify "the
screw". He was hoping there'd be an "Oh...gosh...gee...Sorry about that...".

Screw that. Like I said, we're easy-going, and understand what venue
owners deal with on occasion. But man, try to pull that..."stuff"...and you
find out what people learn from that "dues paying" we all go through and
it's not to roll over to some putz who pees by the dumpsters (Clearly,
afraid of his own urinal trough. Talk about insecure).

I hope if there are any future venue owners on here checking things out,
they decide how to run their business. Sounds like Frank's a slow learner.

Me either. I guess we just have to keep listening to what we like and hope enough other people do the same so it stays around for a long time.
... and then the wheel fell off.
