So, when did you have your first gig?
at what age?
And how long did it take for you to get an event to play in?
(measured from the time you bought your equipment and/or first trained to dj).
What kind of crowd? How many?
What kind of music did you play? for how long did you play?
Just asking out of pure curiousity.

No mate. DJs Eternity and Blitz started DJing late '80s early '90s, so are probably the originals.
They were also two of the three original members of Ionosphere, Brett (DJ Cutmaster C) being the third and founder member.
DJ Eternity --- DJ Cutmaster C --- DJ Blitz (http://www.djblitz.co.uk)
Eternity and Brett are still part of Ionosphere but Blitzy stays in touch.
