People don't realise that just because a party starts at 7.00 and finishes at 12.00 that a dj starts about 4.00 and doesn't finish til about 2.00 am the next day. Then if it's a wedding. Having a meeting with the Happy couple to discuss entrance music. There first dance ect. And then making sure you have them in a playlist. It all takes time that people forget.

Hi Jimmy, nice little video with good vibes! Question about the set up…noticed you had about 3-4 mics going at once? Did you have the mics all running through ur small Mackie mixer then ran that into the Denon Console? Or the opposite by running the Denon into the Mackie mixer then out to the speakers?

Hello Jimmy, something like that can happen when people just talk and don't dance a lot. I've had it a few times and I always think what's wrong, but it's not like that, because they just want music and maybe a little exercise, so I don't think about it anymore, it should be again. Despite everything, I keep getting booked by them. But I passed on this company because it's too bland for me. Kind regards, from Austria Frank
