Unless they have something usefull to say!
I dont wanna come off as aloof! Im happy to talk to the customers as long as they are saying something with a point or perpouse! Rather thanm just rambling on with drunk talk!

if another dj comes up to me and has something to say thats not positive or is just plain stupid...I tell them its probably that advice/or type of comment that makes you a spectator on the weekends and not the dj.

i've talked to dj's after they've spun before. mostly because i was too drunk to get my car from the valet, so i was looking to stall.

the conversation was pretty cool. the guy was carrying crates of vinyl, so i asked him why he didn't use ssl, and he said it was because he likes to physically feel the music he plays.

i was trying to leave at this point, but he kept going on and on, and how it's not vinyl that makes you a real dj, and that using ssl doesn't mean you've sold out, or something similar. i don't really remember most of the conversation, or really much of that night.
