    hes ok like, i wudnt say hes amazing, he starts out ok and plays well, then does a few tricks which are good, then doesnt stop and spoils the rest of his set by constantly cutting stuff up etc, ill admit hes good technically and i enjoyed his set, but marco v owned on that night by a country mile :)

    he throws a scratch over a tune everyone knows and when the crowd react he carrys on the scratch until (in most cases) the main break in the tune, pulls it off every time...eddie, eddie, eddie (chants)......lol

    Tbh he hasnt impressed me since i saw him the first time at the Carling Academy in Glasgow. Then i realised he plays virtually the same set for a period of bout 6 months.

    Hes also completely random goin through styles in his sets. As entertaing as he is i think hes a bit gash now.

    Ive never came away from a Halliwell set thinking "wow that was amazing"

    Not everyone can mix two records with their feet. That said, he was a pile of shite.

    Of course, only he can hear the breakdown in the tune because he scratches so damned loud it drowns the tune out!

    When I first saw him 3 years ago I was amazed. But haven't enjoyed a single set since.

    I honestly dont see whats so impressive about doing basic scratches over the top of a bassline - I cant scratch at all but its not exactly rocket science.

    The other stuff he does ..... so what? He's probably pretty quick at beatmatching but then again, whats so difficult about cutting a track over another one or swapping the basslines on stuff?

    quite a lot when your using 3 decks, looping a sample, using the transformer and scratching the sample over another tune, while smiling, putting up with anal people who nit pick everything and anything about his sets, ignoring the bandwagonists who now think its "cool to dislike eddie" and ignoring every1 that slates him for being an "arrogant prick" even though he is one of the4 nicest djs around

    :up:

    eddie rocks

    at gg vs godsk he wasnt his usual best and had people saying how he was a "disgrace" blah blah blah, fuckin boring *****, every1 has their off days

    and 95% of the time eddie is top draw

    Not seen Eddie in a while so not sure if he does use 3 decks etc., if he does fair play that's impressive. But it doesn't take away from the fact his sets are a random collection of "big tunes" from various genre's. It just doesn't work for me TBH...but obviously it does for a lot of others... :)

    never said you did kidda

    he gets bashed cos he's popular


    if over 15% of population like something it becomes uncool to like it

    fact
