Was at Brighton Music Conference last year and saw one of the pioneer UK house DJs there . I don't know about the state of his health but he really looked rough - like he was wearing a rubber mask. Can't be healthy living like that for decades...

Children - beware !

Is that the effect of staying up all night taking drugs, though, or is it the effect of house music?

I bet jungle DJs of the same age are all spry and cheeky.

Possibly just as haggard-looking but with more of an inner spark still left, I would guess.

(And it is a guess, I mean it's not like I'm routinely hobnobbing with 50-something jungle DJs these days.)

DJ zinc has this weird kale smoothie glow about him nowadays. It's unnerving.

UK balearic DJs always look the worst in my experience. The combination of puffy gak face with a expensive japanese denim and (strangely often) a cravat.

I saw Mark Moore of S-Express when we went to see "Beyond The Candelabra" at the cinema a few years and he looked lovely.

Weatherall dressed like that. You see men of a certain age dressed like that all the time though.

Very true. Although the only time I ever met anyone famous there (DJ Pierre) I was so star struck I couldn't look him in the face
