Curious about preference for DJ'ing or dancing...which would you choose if you could only choose one (not for a night...forever)

I don't think it's a very hard choice, actually.

i was just curious about some of y'all...it's hard to tell how much passion there is for the dance sometimes. but the passion for good music is clear!

Well, this is a swing djs list/forum, after all.

as it's been implied in other threads, it's doubtful you can be a good swing dj without being a competent dancer. You need to have some idea of what style will fit the music and whether you yourself enjoy dancing to the song.

I Dj'ed Monday with a friend of mine who has similar musical tastes; he spun one song which I've played a lot; I found that when dancing to it I didn't care for it as much as I did listening to it; so I probably will take it off my current playlist.

I would give up DJing in a heartbeat...but on one condition: that there was always good music to dance to.
