also that stage wasn't EQ'ed well at all, a shitton of bass and treble but very little mids. i remember hearing recognizable tracks and thinking "it shouldn't sound like this." nonetheless i was jumpin to it like a jackrabbit on diet pills.

I can go into a dnb room and see someone killing it and I would stay even though I have no passion for the genre. I am not into top forty or "club" music but when I saw jazzy jeff I stayed cause he was rippin it with mad shit. Not to mention his credentials, like inventing the transformer scratch even though some say spinbad back in philly invented but ask cash money it wasn't really a transform scratch. Jazzy Jeff flipped it and was the first to intro it and cash money was the first to name it. So hellz yeah I wanted to stay, he was rippin, even though you'd never hear those songs on my playlist or in my car heeeeelz no. And he also invented the chirp scratch as well, but thats another story. But I wanted to see all these yrs of history and I was satisfied.

It goes the same with any dj. I am very open minded and have seen so many closed minded people that have this theory of "if it's not completely what I like, than I don't like" I don't get that, especially if you're a musician/dj or any part involved in the scene. See I am involved in a movement like many out there, ones that appreciate any artist if passion is involved. You take one dj who's just mixing records and not interacting with the crowd like most locals here in dallas, vs an eddie halliwell jumping up on the turntables getting the crowd in shambles. See the difference? You can play to play and have that label "Oh yeah I am a dj and I play at dada sometimes and blah blah blah" and use it as an "I'm cool" thing or you can really be passionate about it like RHV was. He gave that crowd PASSION. And with that passion he gave them tricks, transitions, cuts, rewinds, tracks from the past, tracks from today and was dancing like a mo fo!

I remember back in 2000 he played in a forest near ft collins, CO and he was popping while beat juggling two records. That shit was sick and then it went to his drop "shut the fuck up and dance" the crowd went off. Or take a dj like dj David back in 91 mounting a turntable on four coca cola cans and doing a one arm b boy stand on top while the jungle brothers house you track went round and round and round... Shit like that is passion. It's why he won in 1991 and still considered dmc history today. It just baffles me how some djs just mix and dont do anything, to me its like "what the fuck are you doing?" And at the same time it's like "yes, they blend in, and the passionate stand out" Thats why I get so excited and inspired when I see highly skilled djs get actively involved in what they are doing. I love passionate people, it's inspiring, motivating and just good times when you're going out, you feel connected

when I grow up I wanna be just like you!! you are sooooo awesum!

2. I have seen RHV and his track selection is not always the greatest, imo.

It wasn't a jesus pose like arms out looking to the crowd. His eyes were closed head alightly down and syncing his arms going out to the anthem. Thats what made it so bad ass cause we all thought he was cutting the music down like what halliwell would do but then he puts his arms out and BAM. It went perfect!! Everyone around me was tripping out. This was for sure best set I have seen from rhv. Gosh the hatred in this forum is ridiculous. Dallas has a lot to learn from Austin.

Know actually I think it is YOU that has a lot to learn buddy.

Anyways man, I can't wait to see more youtube videos I just cant look at them at work.

dude, what you fail to realize is that the other people weren't hating on your fav dj RHV they were hating on you. They just didn't care to comment on RHV and you obviously did. Now your pitching a bitch fit because everyone didnt like like your idol as much as you did?!?!?

just let it go man...

I wasn't hating. When I saw him the last time it got a bit redundant. Now, I hear his last tag set with BBB at the LL was pretty sweet.


In his defense he seemed cool and down with his fans when I met him.
