There are certainly still plenty of punters out there, which is good, but the lack of unity such a situation brings isnt positive.
So many many middle aged men who wanna dj, myself included, thats great if it stems from a passion for music, rather than a desire to feed an ego, the former reason leads to musical diversity and quality, the later can lead to punters hearing hammered pricey oldies over and over again or sub standard but again expensive, exclusives's imho.
