It takes stamina to get up like an athlete every single night, seven to eight performances a week, 20 weeks in a row.

DJ-ing itself is not just about playing songs. The art of DJ-ing is presenting new songs to the crowd that they haven't heard before and creating a party vibe that's different than just listening to anybody's playlist. It's the only way to truly be big and respected in your craft.
