My gripe is you don't turn up to hear, I dunno, "Foo Fighters" or some other big band play a night of other peoples music if it's billed as FOO FIGHTERS LIVE.

Any permutation of an artists name with 'live' featured after it tends to point the listener towards thinking they're going to be seeing a show of that artists material.

Fair enough people might want to drop some other tunes etc but then aren't you just effectively DJ'ing ? (at a level where, perhaps, you're not able to mix the records fast enough if you actually had to DO IT ?)

ABLETON DJ SET should start getting mentioned on flyers, imo. I can stay at home and put on techno rekkid after rekkid, if I'm stepping out to see someone 'live' I often get a little miffed if it ain't.

Plus, you're kinda lying to people then - aren't you ?

You can expect a percentage of the punters will go home thinking that is 'your' sound, when in reality it's just the sound of the other peoples music you've been playing all night...

It's a goddamn minefield, it really is...
