DJ's Getting Kicked Off The Decks

[loverocket]

Am I missing something in your meaning here? if its usually open format night to me that would suggest an eclectic crowd who are up for listening to lots of different stuff and therefore he should be able to play lots of different stuff without risking been booted

Open Format means multiple genres concentrating heavily on the Top 40 Charts. Disco, 80's, Hip-Hop, EDM, etc. The open format crowd is open-minded for genres, but they like to hear stuff they recognize. If you are a good DJ you can throw in some new stuff and make it work. It used to be called DJing.

Open Format does NOT mean beat juggling obscure drum and bass and getting kicked out the booth.

If I was in the crowd and the DJ I went there to see got kicked off I would be asking for my money back straight away. If not get a few mates together and smash the place up. PS I am english btw so its to be expected. my local club had to get rid of the smoke machines cuz bouncers kept getting beat up when they went off and the cameras couldnt see

Reading this, I still can't figure out what caused the London Riots...

On topic: This is an American thing I guess. I can't imagine it happening in Europe, because our clubbing culture is very different. Only if the dj is drunk or really screwing up.

Even in America it's a pretty recent development, never used to be this way.

I think it's funny that the VIP douches are dictating the music. In better days of past, the dancefloor would dictate the music.
The VIP took over the dancefloor and the music became shit. I told people to boycott this and no one listened.
All of these DJ's kept selling their soul for the ca$h. Now the beast has risen from the depths to collect it's debt.

Sarcasm?

Sarcasm?

Irony would be a better description I guess.
