dj bullshit that has no talant to back it up...And whats with dj's trying to pass themselves off as musicians?! I have heard them called "turntableists"...What a joke.

DO NOT start a war here pal. I am sick to death of closed minded meatheads (or metalheads, in this case) who are so afraid or threatened by music without a big phallic guitar dominating the sound. Just because you don't like it (or understand it) doesn't give you the right to say it's talentless. I am one of those DJ's/record producers that writes, records and releases Techno. Does that mean I have no talent? I suppose I should now mention that I attended Berklee College of Music as a horn player (Jazz). Do I have talent NOW? Or do I need a Flying V and a marshall stack to prove my chops?

Some of the most talented musicians I've known are DJs. Sorry, but "instruments" come in all shapes & sizes. The Tiki community is wide and varied, think before you randomly bash something here!

Thank God The Tiki Bar Is Open
Thank God The Tiki Torch Still Shines...
