Agreed, hate it when some dj's stand still. Don't know how they do it.

The only way this could be a problem, is if you dance too crazily and bump the mixer, turntables or whatever.

Seriously though, if you weren't dancing, then we'd have a problem.

I haven't had this problem yet...however I did hype up the crowd so much at a huge house party a few weeks ago that a few people kept getting bounced into my midifighter and decks...at one point I had a loop going in tempo and the pitch fader got knocked off...took me like 5 seconds to realize why my mix was off....luckily I did a big jog wheel spin (on pitch bend) and it hit perfect lol...it felt pretty awesome and almost sounded planned.

You have to move to the music - but I see a LOT of vids on youtube of people stood in front of their gear, kinda shuffling their feet from left to right. They look really uncomfortable. Quite often they'll be tweaking a knob when there's no need...
