dustin you did an admirable job defending his corner
but sorry sven you are wrong , you are paranoid , and yeah you'll probably be replaced someday..... by my son????

i'm 35 i live off my djing because i simply do not have time to do anything else
i write fewer tracks these days because of djing commitments
and i play parties with 2/3000 people in south america when i only play to 2/300 people in other countries......

am i a middle class dj??
i really couldn't give a ........

but like any sensible human being i am aware that my djing existence is finite , i have a family to support , and i do have plans for the future that don't involve djing....

but sven , naff off and get old gracefully mate !
there's a whole world of opportunity out there for the taking , switching jobs is not impossible for anyone in their 20-40s , but maybe it is for sven
and maybe that's what he's really saying.

Sven isnt the only person I've heard comments like this from.....well-similar comments.....and I'm not going to name names on here-but I really am starting to think that some of these so-called 'bigger' artists are paranoid that somelike like me-or anyone else in the industy-is going to steal their bread and butter one day....

Maybe they should be scared though....there are plenty of other artists out there that dont have the $10,000+ pricetag that some of these guys do-that are just as good, if not better than them-and I think some of the promoters out there are starting to realize that......

Aside from that though, I definitely think it's good to have a 'backup' plan-something to fall back on in case things didnt work out or something else came up....no matter what age you are.....
