Re: Live PA

Re: Live PA

Okay All,

    Live PA stands for "Live Public Address" - as in "PA System." This term 
is used to denote that the PA system will be rocked (hopefully) live and not 
a dj set. This wording has come about, I believe, because of promoters need 
to distinguish the djs from the live acts. There are so many different 
genres of electronic music and so many different ways to create it live that 
the simplicity of "Live PA" is probably best.
    If you make music you are a musician. If you use electronics then you 
may want to call yourself an electronic musician. What's in a name?You may 
want to back up and simply call yourself an artist...

    But think about this:

     Why do you create at all? Why do you have such a drive to create and 
your neighbor does not? Can you teach someone to have your passion to create 
or do you have to be born with it? What will happen if you stop? Could you 
stop?

       Discuss...
