The set is called Wooden Wisdom at the Do-Over<\/a><\/em>, Los Angeles. But, do you think this cross-over actually works?<\/p>\n

Actor Elijah Woods who played Frodo Baggins in\u00a0The Hobbit<\/em> has been working a side job over the last few years, and now he’s ready to take it to the big time.<\/p>\n

Woods has founded a record label called Simian Records, and has taken up DJ-ing with friend Zack Crowie. Together they are Wooden Wisdom. Now they’re embarking on a US tour.<\/p>\n

So, what do you think about an actor going pro as a DJ<\/a>? I don’t mean to typecast anyone. Nearly everyone has multiple talents. So, why shouldn’t actors be given the chance to express those talents to a general public?<\/p>\n

I guess I can’t help but wonder about how much of Woods’ success as a DJ comes because he’s a famous actor. Would he have been able to secure gigs if he wasn’t famous?<\/p>\n

The thing is that judgements serve no purpose unless they’re based on something fair. So, let’s do that. Let’s judge Wooden Wisdom on its DJ-ing talent.<\/p>\n

Have a listen to the duo and let me know if merit is deserved.<\/p>\n
