SwingDJs

I am impressed by your ability to miss the point. kudos

have fun with your part to whole comparison flaws

I am saying that you obviously have no idea what you are talking about. How often do you go dancing? ...

I dj:d Paul Whiteman's 1928 "San" last night. It went down great, especially among the charleston dancers. He's way underappreciated. Of course, being able to afford players like Bix and Tram helps. Don't forget Jack Teagarden, Red McKenzie, Bing Crosby, Mildred Bailey, Joe Venuti, Bunny ...

I was enjoying your conversation with yourself.

It's comments like this that make it so painfully obvious that you aren't a part ...

This sucks! All of these betamax companies are going out of business because of this new fangled "VCR" BS

I djed with disco xt 4.8.1 on saturday and found it to be just about perfect. I know the previous version was buggy, but for me, all the bugs have seem to be cleared up.
