When you get Madonna mash-ups and a whole bunch of other dance type stuff, its a bit disappointing to know you wasted your money. at least if i choose to go to a club based on what they play, i hope they are going to play that style of music.
Not so much personal but a general comment stating my opinion. And certainly not in the attack mode towards you at all. In fact, based on how I had interpreted it, I thought that it was a little odd coming from you as I know that you too are another
cool music freak.
Now that you state your points this way, I'm in full agreement with you. In essence, that's false advertising. At very least, very misleading, to say the least. Not the kind I'd take to court or even demand my money back for but certainly would probably not return or spread good words around town about them.
Mind Cage, I'm glad to hear that those strips are already being used that way by some DJs. Hopefully, more clubs will put them up and properly utilize them for we obsessives. Just think about all of the times that someone has asked what some song was and no one was able to give a definitive answer. Seems to me that some record label or liquor company could sponsor one with a small and tasteful logo if money is an issue. I'm not sure how that stuff works though.
