Watch the recording of the webcast here!

So this is going to be fun.  Promise.  Next Tuesday, August 10 at 130pm EST Future Shop will be hosting a live webcast with reps from Monster, Stanton, Numark, HP and (of course) Future Shop who will be talking about the latest category to hit Future Shop online and in-store: Club Beats (DJ & Pro Audio).  Our very own blogger/Future Shop Communications guy Elliott will be hosting the event.  They'll be showing off the latest DJ equipment, answering your questions and will also be joined by a Grammy-nominated artist!  I've been sworn to secrecy until Sunday at 10pm EST, but talk amongst yourselves and a high five to whoever guesses right!  UPDATE: as Elliott mentions in his blog, the guest artist is LMFAO!

Is this something that I will be able to use with ease?  I find that my children know more about things like this than I do, so is it easy to use?

[#3]

Would love to win this prize!

[#4]

Will this help me in learning some skills about djing as a career?

[#5]

Will they be showing how to use the DJ equipment as well as showing it off?

[#6]

Would this be useful for a full rock band to use? How?

[#7]

Is this the newest and most exciting product since rock band invaded my home and kept my teens busy actually hanging out with each other for hours on end!

[#8]

Is it very complicated to use? How many buttons etc.? Smile

[#9]

Is this meant to be only for professionals or will it also include options for mainstream consumers ?

[#10]

Looking forward to finally launching Club Beats in Canada via Future Shop! Should be a fantastic discussion/unveil.

I'm surprised no one has tried to guess who the artist that's appearing.

For those curious, here's what world-renown DJ, DJ Skee had to say about Club Beats and Future Shop:

[#11]

Tommy Lee has been quite well known lately as a great DJ even touring. Any chance of a Limited Edition Tommy Lee version on the horizon? It would convince more of us "rockers" to spend the cash on a turntable as well

[#12]

Will the Product Experts at Future Shop be able to advise on what equipment I need to start up my DJ business?  Will they have live demo's?

[#13]

Will these products be for the on the road musican, studio, or both? and will the products use midi or not?

[#14]

Will I be a better Disc Jockey with this equipment

[#15]

IS IT DUMMY PROOF?

[#16]

Is it only for DJ's or could this be used by everyday people in their home as part of their entertainment center?
