Re: [xl7] Re: XX-7 versus records

Yeah, I got into spinning records after I got sick of hauling a car full 
of gear out to parties every weekend, not to mention the repeated set up 
and tear down got old fast.  Especially when the cops would come ten 
minutes before my set!  :)  While I like to spin, you're right it's easy 
after doing live sets, and to me not as much fun as playing my own music 
out.  Still, a bag of records is TONS easier to deal with :)

I like the split/tag-team thing too, my girlfriend spins and at a few 
parties I would throw some XL-7 stuff over her records, it was a lot of 
fun just accenting in that regards.

Spinning tables is definately much EASIER than doing a live 
gig...especially the setup and tear down. Not to mention it's easier 
to hold a beer and a square while spinning....but it's just not quite 
as fun...unless of course you have a partner, one on the decks and 
one on the gear, and then tag team. That's what me and my cohort did 
for new years eve, fortunately we just broadcasted it online, WAY too 
much gear to haul on a night like that.
