The Lebanese disease of ranking

"“Lebanon is said to rank fourth in the world in terms of booking international DJs,” says Mohammed Ghebris, events booker, record shop owner, record label proprietor and founder and head of “the only DJ school in the Middle East”. He says that international DJs cancel other gigs to play Beirut. “They enjoy it more here. They tell me that the people dance here like nowhere else.”" Oh, yes, Mr. Ghebris. Lebanon rank fourth in the annual competition for Booking International DJ's. This is a really serious competition. How sad and pathetic. (thanks Saeed)
