Same here I get bored with the same sites.

Scratchlive
Myspace
AOL (check news and mail)
allhiphop.com

Thats really it, I dont like to look for music here because I cant download it and I cant really bump the speakers lound enough anyway to decide what to download and what not to.

Yeah we all seem to essentially be lookin at the same stuff. You guys should take a look at BBC news in addition to or in place of CNN. I think it gives more of an unbiased, global view of the news.

This proves that about 99% of DJs..even the ones that have cool gear like Serato, need a real job just to making a living. These days you simply can't live on gigs unless you are famous or something.

Hiphophit's Forum is a hidden gem :)

I consider myself as someone who has a 9-5 and DJs on the side... as opposed to being a DJ and has a 9-5 on the side... I consider my day job more important.

1. That should've been known already. We (I) didn't need this post to prove that.

2. DJing has never been about making a living for me. First and foremost, its a hobby/passion/constructive distraction. Financially, its just a way for me to keep from touching paychecks.
