Club DJs, making a living from playing other peoples records.
Don't start me on that little chestnut. They charge so much because "have you seen how much my decks cost, and how much it costs to buy CDs/download the tracks".
- ** boilers all.
There is only one DJ that can be described as 'ground breking', and that is Eddie Halliwell. The only DJ in the 'Top 100' who doesn't produce.
They / we may irritate, grate, annoy, but we also uplift, enhance and make peoples nights.
But we aren't musicians.

Ringo.
Yep,never has someone been more in the right place at the right time...
more time for me to waste 
This is my first post in this forum and although I'm in the music business,
I know nothing about today's 'popular' music and musicians; so I posed the question to my brother (who
is a Gold Disc, No 1 hit, Ivor Novello award etc. record producer)
and his answer was ........ "Oh Chri5t, there are hundreds of them!".
My own take on Ringo, is that he is slightly more talented than Nick Mason
and I wonder what Zak (who IS a good drummer) thinks of his father????

Bernard Sumner but just re technical prowess and singing. Song writing very good despite odd dubious lyric.
Passengers being in the right place at the right time? Where to start?
he's one person who seems to have got worse and worse over the years ---Passengers being in the right place at the right time? Where to start?
worse at singing and worse at playing guitar!

However they have influenced dance music as we know it both directly with their synth use etc and also indirectly with the Hacienda.
I really believe music would not be what it is today without Joy Devision/New Order even if it means having to put up with Sumner being out of tune half the time!

I think he was a better singer in the early 80's -
I think Stephen Morris was the original choice for singer as Ian Curtis' suicide - as his voice was considered most similar to I.C.
