so i was out for my friends 21st and it was a killer night and we're partying on down and i thinks to myself, 'yknow what would be really cool, some dancing music' and head over to the dj booth.
(this is in newcastles "biggest" indie/rock/alt night, so obviously theres a big mixed crowd and everyones drinking away)

me: hey man, do you have anything by head automatica?

dj: yeh but i can't play it, its too guitary to play tonight (or words to that effect)

me: have you heard it ? its just dance music!

dj: i know, but its too rock to play here

me: how about something like the arcade fire or hot hot heat

dj: nah i dont think people here would like them

me: not even bandages you always play that?

got bandages ... but how can something be too guitary for a rock night !
its not like i was asking for 9 minutes vai and sach widdle fests or anything remotely metal ... jus seems silly that a dj isnt willing to play guitar/dance/party music at a nightclub.


ps i know im being daft, cos i dont actually like the most nightclubs, but humour me ;)
