     Yeah, but apart, perhaps, from Keith in the Prodigy, these people are 
     faceless - DJs sitting behind their decks and mixers. And club/rave 
     DJs are almost invariably invisible. People certainly don't go to see 
     someone perform, they go to do the performing themselves, on the dance 
     floor.

     This seems to be changing, I recently saw a chemical brother's show 
     and it could have been a rock-and-roll concert. Spectacular light/fx 
     show, you could easily spend your time just looking at the show (quite 
     a few people were actually doing this), and not dancing.
     As for dj's being faceless, here in the Netherlands some dj's are 
     getting quite well known. The appear in tv-shows, magazines, etc.
     And not just in the underground fanzines, but in the big 
     papers/magazines.
