    A DJ hired to spin tunes at a Bedouin wedding in Israel was beaten up for playing Western music which some guests felt encouraged lewdness in the women, the Maariv daily reported on Monday. Skip related content

    The DJ reportedly angered some of the male guests when he put on song by the Pet Shop Boys Enlarge photo

    The DJ initially put on Arabic tunes for the hundreds of guests attending the event in Aroer village in Israel's Negev desert region.

    At one point, he decided to stir things up and put on a song by the British electronic music duo Pet Shop Boys, causing some women to "dance exuberantly to the foreign music," angering some of the men present, the daily said.

    "The fact that women were dancing at the wedding goes against tradition and is a dishonour to their husbands," it quoted one guest as saying.

    Several angry young men gave the DJ a "severe beating" after he refused to go back to playing Arabic music. Police later arrested two men in connection with the incident.

    Proper order!

    He was asked to change the music. He didn't. He got beat.

    If it's good enough for Stephen Gerrard, it's good enough for the rest of us.

    I wonder was the DJ one of them.


    There's no excuse for pet shop boys in this day and age.
