TPIR Announce Question (for Randy?)

[quote name=\'JayC\' date=\'Dec 24 2003, 11:38 AM\'] I asked a DJ at a school dance once why he wore headphones, and he said it was to drown out the sound to a level in which he would want to hear it. That's where I got the DJ thing from. [/quote]
Good. You're still wrong.
1) A club/dance jock and a radio jock are two different things.
2) He prolly told you that because he didn't want to get into a big discussion with you about cue channels and the like. How do you think they hear what they're cueing up so they can mix from one song to the next while keeping the beat constant?

Is this the kind that Gary Owens was always pictured holding on Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In?

No, cuz Gary just held his hand to his ear. Try Walter Cronkite on "You Are There."

What happened to Chris the audio guy? He was the one responsible for Bob's Neumann mic.

There was a, um, ah, difference of opinion. He was released from the show. The mike has been passed to Dirk and the continuing members of the audio department. Rest easy during the holiday season, it is in good hands. ;-)
