Why is everybodty these days a graphic designer AND a DJ? it's so cliche - but hey I'm guilty of it too.
I've got some old club flyers at: http://www.chameleonic-design.co…

EVERYONE is a dj, not just designers. When asking what someone does, expect to hear "and I do a bit of dj-ing at the weekends too" tacked on to the end, be they designer, busdriver or dental hygienist...

true enough. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, it just makes me want to throw my technics and pencils out of the window sometimes. I don't know why.

everyone with knowledge of photoshop/illustrator basics like to think they're designers these days...

I AM saying it's a bad thing. I reckon it's contributed greatly to clubs not being nearly as good as they used to be.
God I sound old ;/

it wont last though - there'll be a need for some quality control at some point, or everything will fall apart and nobody will want to go out dancing anymore or look at anything, just stay in bed.
