[Dynagroove] I am going to start some trouble...

[WhiskeyMbl at aol.com]

well, i don't go out anymore so take my opinions with a 
grain of salt:

doc martin - not consistent & has multiple bdays per year
marques wyatt - never trust a black dj with no ass
alton miller - sad disappointment - tho it was loft 9
wicked crew - too bangy at times
idjut boys - gave them two chances
frankie knuckles - has done amazing stuff, has lost his touch

but there are also a 10 x the number of djs that have amazed me and exceeded my expectations.  and tho i don't go out and support anymore, i think LA is full of some amazing talent and good promoters who have brought out out of towners that don't disappoint.
