I got another copy by mistake. Brand new, never opened. Anyone want it - I got a good deal on it.

I take it all back. I won't call it a change of heart after all. I'll call it cashing in principle for peace of mind.

Kalman

So, it is a change of heart then. I'm not going to beat you up about it. Just wanted to make sure.

Sorry for the long post. While this is not a new situation, I don’t know if this has ever been a thread topic, only something that has been mentioned in passing in other threads.

I might play to someone if they're dancing and putting off good energy but that's pretty rare. It's not enough that one couple is having a killer dance, others have to be excited by it.

I do not DJ to "prove" something to another DJ. That's too petty for words.
