This generation of live music listeners just care about a beat, and the DJs speed up and slow down songs so that incessant beat NEVER changes. Nobody cares anymore about quality guitar work, accurate harmonies, tasteful keyboard fills... all they want is BOOM BOOM BOOM at 112 bpm for 4 hours. DJs have 4-5 minutes between CD changes to go to the bathroom and get water, so they can go non stop for 4 hours with no break, unlike musicians who need to catch their breath and rest their vocal chords for 20 minutes between sets.

I personally despise DJs. Though I despise a lot of things, so don't take THAT to heart too much.... grin
