Sunnysoul Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 I never play precious originals when I DJ out ..... I only use boots ...... so I need a nice POINTER SISTERS boot of "Send Him Back" so I can hammer it good and proper. Will pay 5 quid. In case you're wondering I take one box of boots - which I play on the decks - and I also take box of originals of those boots , so that when some smart assed self important chin stroker comes up to me and takes issue with the fact that I'm playing a boot and questions whether I own the original , I quickly pull out the original 45 and shove it in his face then tell him to get on his bike and out of my face ... meanwhile the punters - who couldn't give a monkeys - are packing the dancefloor. Don't you just love this scene?

Don't you just love this scene? So... you effectively double up on the amount of vinyl that you take to a gig.... just in case some "smart assed self important chin stroker" comes up to you? And does having the original somehow give you license to play the Boot... whereas a person who does not own the original would not be allowed to play their Boot to the punters - who couldn't give a monkeys either way? Why not just play the originals? Is it to cut down on wear and tear? Not being funny... Just interested (nay... fascinated). Sean

"if you've only got a boot copy of a record, do you ALWAYS wait to play that out until you've bought the orignal first?" based on your comments.... >> never play precious originals when I DJ out .....

Each to his own, but if you had a Ferrari would you then lock it in a garage and buy MR2 based replica and drive that round the track The records were made to be played and enjoyed.

Dave Thorley Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 couldn't agree more dave still got your ferrari by the way or are you now driving a bootleg Sadly no . Let it go a few years ago, when I went through my wilderness year, so to speak. But had it for fifteen years and had loads of fun thrashing the hell out of it on the track and on the road.
Ernie Andrews Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 What a ridulous thing to say - Play boots but take originals with me - With that attitude why dont you just take a cd or do you have scruples about that ! If you get my point!
Cunnie Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Does this mean you only buy originals that have been booted? Each to his own I suppose...
