What don't you get

Joe Claussell…I’m just gonna say it. That constant isolator, and yeah I’ve seen him play out and it was just as annoying (to me)

Agreed. I just don’t get the constant iso abuse

Discogs sellers jacking up prices to cash in on someone’s death. Zero shame…

…and Gemma Collins.

Edit: Sorry this probably belongs in the “What boils your piss” thread.

What also makes it irritating is you hear him play some amazing records, but he just can’t leave them alone

on a good night Claussell is up there with the best in the business but I agree it’s the musical equivalent off too many ‘stepovers’

I think in the right room, with an educated crowd he can take you on a mad journey… watching him on YT or in a big room with no atmosphere and folks fiddling with their phones I can concur it gets tedious, been lucky enough to see him in his element at Body & Soul and was quite a religious experience each time, but perhaps playing B2B with two others limits the exposure and tinitus… :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Grown men and women who get offended/outraged/annoyed and post their opinions on social media rallying against current pop stars like Billie Eilish, Bieber, etc.

It’s not FOR YOU, ignore it and move on.

There’s plenty of music to go around and it’s pop music made for the kids. You’ve got your Sun Ra box set and your Basinski reissues to attend to, so shut the fuck up and stop wasting time on trivial matters.

Been to body and soul spent an hour at the bar came back with 3 pineapple juices… No one told me… Great experience and trying to get a taxi on a freezing Sunday in February to go to centro fly I think was the follow on that night was a nightmare…

Thanks for this. Just for the record I’ve got nothing against Paul McCartney whatsoever. It was more the irony that someone who, to be quite honest, hadn’t
achieved an awful lot beyond watching the shopping channel and chatting on facetime could hold the position that the still working, beknighted ex Beatle was ‘a waste of space’. The bit about me agreeing was tongue in cheek. :grinning:

Bane of the DJ’s existence

The Beach Boys, sounds like tinnitus to me, the harmonies… grates on me. I don’t get the shiny happy people vibe. Even the deep songs sound sugar sweet.

John Peel; I made the point on DJH when someone effectively said ‘he played our crap record when nobody else did’ that basically, I take his kindness for weakness.

Many disagreed.
