played for what an hr an half at circus and then the sound problems last
night? Sounds like DC isnt gonna wanna come back to LA if chit like this
keeps goin down. Lets get it together people...

truth...

> how the hell are you going to hear D.C. with NO BASS and a sketchy
soundsystem?  that's really weak. why even bother bringing him out?  are
people that hard up to go to a shitty party just to hear D.C. play?  it's
not about just "getting DC in LA."

money and start supporting the ones who are doing it for the love.  if you
can't prepare a soundsystem for DERRICK CARTER, you need to get out the
house scene and go back to the hollywood scene where it doesn't matter what
the music sounds like.
