Not that we have to remind you, but you should be making your preparations now to attend the August 30 "Million DJ March" in Washington, DC. One million DJs—a number equal to almost all of the DJs in Williamsburg—will "descend on Washington to celebrate decades of service to the entertainment industry." And what worthier cause could there be?
"DJs are the least compensated in the industry element...I am calling on the industry to show support of an event to unify DJs and create future economic safety for these people. The Million DJ March will be the conclusion to a long road of requests from many markets to aid in our mission of security."
Who knew that DJs were so threatened? Louis Farrakhan, who started this whole phenomenon with his Million Man March—the one that actually drew a million people—must be so proud to see what his idea has become: a bitch session for scratchmasters.
Anything less than 1,000,000 DJs will bring the cause crashing down like a pair of Technics perched on a shaky table, so register now.

Oh, hell no . . .
I live in DC, and I don't want to step in that.
Thanks for giving me the heads up while I can plan some travel.
This is right up there with the "Million Janitor March," and the "Million Jamba Juice Employee March." (Just kidding. Custodians are useful).
The sequence of scheduled speakers at this will be incredibly important.
Are talking about real DJ's, you know, like hip hop or techno DJ's, or the people that hang around in hispter bars and play records?
Will they be burning their iPods?
Clearly an Al Jourgensen side project. (Side note: Ministry is playing today. Who knew?)
Is the Tanner Clan going to be there to support their DJ?
@EvidenceOfAbsence: Oddly enough, I was favouriting RevCo stuff on youtube today.
I'm organizing a "Million Bitter Single White Chicks" March. Anyone with me?
@EvidenceOfAbsence: I think I am probably the only person who is going to get that.
That breeze you just felt was 10 million real musicians giving the universal sign for masturbation.
I gave up after the "Million Douchebag" march a couple of years ago. Though, now that I think about it, that may just have been Bush's second inauguration.
@CopyofBlueboy: I would make a joke about the march being derailed by a great shoe sale, but doubtless that would just make you more bitter.
Been to all of them; angling to be the 'million march man.'
@Mediahohoho: It would, if I were a shopper. Also, I'm going to change the name to "Million Bitter Single Poor Hungry White Chicks Who Are Bitter and Poor and Hungry and White."
@Adminitraitor: How about the "Million Twatwaffle" march, as a sister march to the "Million Douchebag" march?
@Mediahohoho: Ha! Also - agreed!
million anonymous commenter march
@CopyofBlueboy: Will the white chicks be bitter enough to make some questionable decisions with me in my van.
@Priam: DJ Tanner is an actual DJ in LA. I kind of enjoy it. I'd like to see it go the other way... start a hide-tanning business and go by Michelle.
@PickleTitsTurner: Well, if they're hungry, they're probably thirsty, too.
@PickleTitsTurner: Oh hell yeah.
Wait, what color is the van?
Many colors, the most prominent of those being the orange stripes on the huge tiger painted on the side.
Roawrr!
@PickleTitsTurner: Okay, good. Just wondering you're like that creepy guy Terence Stamp played in The Collector.
More like Jeff Bridges in "The Vanishing."
Kidding.
I'm more like a mix between Burt Reynolds in "Deliverance" and Jimmy Stewart in "Mr Smith Goes to Washington."
When is that again? I'll plan a trip overseas. I suspect we'll hear that march all the way up in Toronto!
@PickleTitsTurner: Well I'm more like Amelie's retarded cousin. So. There's that.
Least compensated in nightlife? Oh HELL NO. I was a go-go dancer. WE were the ones getting the shaft. And shake off wandering hands on top of it.
Alas, we may never meet.
@EvidenceOfAbsence: Well played!
I'd like to go, but I'm afraid I might be number one million and one, and thus banned from participating once I got there.
So whaddya think? Maybe 20,000 people show up, of whom 3,000 have ever actually gotten paid for any DJing or DJing related activity? Or is that high?
I'd like to get a million guys named Mitch together and stage a Million Mitch March.
Then, after that, I'd round up a million women named Marge and have Million Marge March.
Six+ hours since CopyofBlueboy mentions Bitter White Chicks marching and still no Hillary joke...?
@jackvinyl: Yeah, what's that about? You think you know your fellow commenters.....
*snort*
People with the initials DJ may also attend.
Don Johnson.
Derek Jeter.
That ought to beef up the crowd a bit.
But wait ... why are they going, again?
And why did you write this post, again?
