What is the point of an MC?

ska.. fuck'n a dude!

I simply cringe when I hear an MC. Almost as if they are trying to steal the show or own credit to the entire evolution just because they have the mic.

I thinks MC should study the art of fluffers. They should give the crowd an opening and that's it. Ever see a fluffer try to jump in while Peter North is shooting ropes?

Bottom line.. MC -> Fluffers.

i caught dieselboy with an MC twice and it was actually really awesome. the MC chose his spots instead of just blabbering non stop for an hour or two like most MCs. i sure as hell wouldn't want to hear an MC over any other genre though

mc messinian probably (aka mc annoying-as-fuck-like-all-other-MCs)

they just ruin the livesets period
I found myself concentrating more on what the dumbshit MC was going to say next rather than the music during a recent Holden set

an MC over a Holden set

I'd rather pay $50 to get into a club, walk 3 feet, get punched in the face by the bouncer, and drug out into the road by my feet than sit through that torturous shit. make that $30 if an MC isn't involved

Re: What is the point of an MC?

i managed to really dig an LTJ set because conrad was pretty well drown out by the bass. couldn't understand one damn word....fortunately. and couldn't imagine it working even the levels were in his favor

it bothers me to hear this is any kind of trend. :?
