    I would say DJs because bands don't really interest me that much!

    DJ's would include people like Q-Bert, mixmaster mike and other top quality scritchers... I'm always far more impressed with those type artists than bands.

    DJs impress me more cos of the music i am into...but live acts such as underworld, nu nrg etc usually impress more than the average dj set

    I'd have to go for dj's just because I love dance music much more than anything a band would play!!!

    That feeling you get when a dj drops one of your favourite tunes is much better than a feeling I could get from watching any band

    :love:

    I would say the two arent really comparable despite both being about loud music played in a club or what not ..... its two different kinds of experiences and emotions.

    Depends on what kind of band tho, obviously u get yer rock groups n such, but what about the live p.a. thing thats basically the DJ turned into a 1 man band ( normally it is , sometimes theres more of em )-for dance music, so that can be the same as a DJ's set:)

    DJ's all the way tho:D ;)

    depends, personally i find that djing and bands are pretty much no different in performance as a dj will practise mixing and a band will practise the songs they are going to play exclusively...

    stuff which incorporates the two can be good, can be fuckin awful too :lol:

    i do like a lot of classical music, and genuinely believe that that is more of an artform to watch a whole orchestra play a symphony, 100 people playing a part in the same piece of music is rather special.

    anybody who is willing to innovate live or bring something new has my respect, and of course please the audience :up:

    I'd say DJ's because I'm very narrow minded and don't like guitars.
