Outdoor Wedding & Ceremony w/ new JBL SRX 815p | Wedding Prep TIPS | Gig Log 039

[@uniqueimagedjservice6556]

Nice choice in the variety of music! Kept the crowd celebrating all night long!

[@808Beatclub]

Hey great video man! I have my first wedding this weekend and your vids have helped a lot. 👌

[@DjFlowRez]

Very informative video! The first 5 minutes of this video are golden bits of information for any beginner coming into the mobile scene. Those are pretty much the exact step I take myself when prepping. Dope content man, keep it up Rick!

[@DJRickWeb]

+D.J. Flowrez thanks man

[@bennyboy214]

Nice video man! I had never heard that Frogs Go Fishing song until I started djing weddings. People love it!

[@djk2290]

Great vidz man keep it up, Djs run the world!

[@adamculbert5834]

Great vid! I was thinking most of the time a wedding planner would make a time line but I guess you way works.

[@SaenzEntertainment]

Just debuted my SRX815P this weekend too and whoa. Next level! Great vid as always. Keep'em coming! 🙌🏼

[@aleksandargrncarov5848]

Respect for helping the photographers like that!

[@DjJayBook]

Webb!!! Lots of great tips man!!! You couldn't be more right about those outside events!! My next edit is from another outside event and Water with snacks is a must!!! Setup is dope as usual and that variety of music is a must for DJ's!! Keep em comin!!

[@DJLoStax]

Looked like another solid wedding in the books! I'm officially on gig log number 3!

[@essentialdjtraining1299]

Really good tips, I do the same with itunes, and also back up everything on an ipod as well. If all computers go down, we still have the most important songs to get through the most important parts of the day! Totally agree with the timeline, really helps to keep the event running smooth !

[@djrenealvarado]

Pro tip! Never let your Vehicle unintended with all your heart in it. That's why I make a check list during the week. Other wise there isn't going to be be a gig to Deejay! With out your Vehicle or gear.

[@emersonjones7719]

great job including speaker in tent, that's a must have at any gig like this..

[@ryenbrousseau1710]

Lol- you can see when he's ripping an MP3 from KZbin. Love to see I'm not the only one doing it during gigs

[@tylertraeger3751]

Yessssssss gig logs are back!!!!!

[@wilcornejo]

Omg Rick love you bro, you are so right about the Food. Sometimes we are starving and they never offer us not even a sip of H2O.

[@raaszmelodicBB77]

I really appreciate your vid man. Congrats on your gig..

[@soundtasticevents3602]

Well done mate excellent gig log as always very informative

[@DJMarcellusDoe]

It was a pretty good gig, aye no matter how long you been DJing you can always learn something new.

[@DJMarcellusDoe]

Also the clips of me acting foolish in the background are hilarious got to have a little fun!

[@essentialdjtraining1299]

You got it . . .Always !

[@theguyzofficial6534]

love your videos man!!! keep it up (Huge fan btw!)

[@5thElementDFW]

Spot on gig log. Welcome back!

[@djjayedwards]

Thanks for the advice on making multiple copies of the run of show (time line)

[@thegoodgamer-norskgaming8302]

love your vids so much man. you give me so much inspiration.

[@rlg222]

That's the same thing that happened to me just recently. I have the JBL PRX 715 that I brought just incase and I needed to use it in the coctail room.

[@WeddingDJBusiness]

Good gig and some great pro tips.

[@kasadasasorith1335]

you are informative. thanks Rick

[@jimgrocery3948]

Good video & advice. The video proves a couple of things. First of all, that there should be a sign at the ed of the dance floor "NO DRINKS on floor". 16:24 is pretty embarrasing. 17:04 not good. People falling from the wet floor. Secondly, it's not the DJ's fault when the bride or groom demand so many bad songs. The DJ's goin' what he's told, trying to make the best of the inevitable train wreck that wasn't his doing.

[@DJRickWeb]

The dance floor was wet because off dew as it got later.

[@jimgrocery3948]

@@DJRickWeb The facility manager should have pointed a blower on the dance and the dew would have blown off in seconds. The spills are MUCH worse because of the depth of the liquid. That's why it's illegal to hold liquids of any kind on a dance floor in most states where there is a liquor license present. *The dance floor was wet from BOTH drinking and dew* Massive jumping around in the video, not so much dancing - this is because the girls (and the men for that matter) can't find the dance beat. Since many of the songs cannot be led, or followed, the girls drink heavier and heaver to try to get through it. This is very common, we see it all the time. In the video at 17:58 it's particularly bad, she might not have gone to the doctor that night, but for sure she slept in the next day. Like I said before, this is why DJ's deserver a lot more credit & pay for their work. The bride and groom's song choices, drinks on the floor, the event "manager" forgetting to put the drinking sign out and the blower all makes it harder on a DJ.

[@DJRickWeb]

@@jimgrocery3948 this was at the couples house and the alcohol was provided by the couple.

[@jimgrocery3948]

@@DJRickWeb Too bad they don't have any friends or family that care about them. If they did, they would have been told: no fluids on the dance floor, normal dance-oriented song list, etc. Heck, even tent rental companies supply blowers and signage if only they were asked!

[@maadmum9409]

The mids sound super nice and crisp through the mic

[@DJRickWeb]

+MAaDmUm the bass was very impactful too. You think there was one tucked under the tablr.

[@maadmum9409]

DJ Rick Web now think what a pair of 18" cabinets will do

[@MrGonzo4000]

As a DJ. I subscribe to your channel.. This is one of your better videos.. Thanks

[@audioentertainment]

PRO TIP - Put all your sheets in Dropbox too so in case you lose it - you have digital access to it as well.

[@djnyajo9463]

im 20 about to be 21 getting all my dj equipment up and skills as well thank you for your channel as I will be learning from you ! I hope to be up and running by age 22 thank u for motivating me so much more

[@gunchief0811]

what would a wedding like this cost generally? in your neck of the wood's? and also ur prx712 as an announcing speaker and dinner music etc. is a good choice i do the same thing it's a must.. i usually rock two ZLP15's by electrovoice for my main gig area . and a ZLXP12 for cocktail-hour and dinner area speeches etc.. and it works well

[@locke6854]

Got that Kickstart!

[@daveshearer1961]

Dude, you got so lucky with the weather that day and that night. Not a cloud in the sky. It didn't look like it was very hot and you didn't have a big problem with bugs. How long would it have taken you to get your equipment under cover in case there was a sudden cloudburst?

[@DJRickWeb]

If there was even a chance of rain I wouldn't have been setup out like that. 0% chance all day

[@robertoorevasquez]

Congratulations, I have srx815 and prx718, what would be the best way to use them together, could you make a video about the presets of the srx815 and which one could you use with my subwoofers, what do you think about using the subs with the auxiliary channels of a mixer ? Thanks.

[@DJRickWeb]

+roberto ore vasquez I like it for seprate control of the subs over the tops

[@nornevclothing]

Bro your outtakes crack me up. Great video! I too DJ Weddings and would like to give you some advice to outdoor weddings; short sleeve collard shirts from H&M will go a long way, tucked in our out with some slim style slacks.

[@DJRickWeb]

+Nor Nev Clothing I like the style idea. Definitely looking into fo out door gigs.

[@HockeyPucker77]

Agenda, Pack food and Water. It's amazing how many events don't have a written agenda. Also since I walk at least 15,000 steps at the average event I need my nourishment. Excellent advice!!!

[@TheNathan343]

What was the name of the song you played at the beginning of the video on your laptop I've heard that before and like it just wondered what it is

[@ryanmoore9275]

Lol the ball adjustment at 14:06

[@mikel9567]

I don't know how many outdoor venues you do, but it would probably be wise to invest in one of those pop up canopy's to provide shelter from the sun or rain. Be a $200 well spent.

[@DJRickWeb]

+Mike L have 3 actually. Choose not to use it.

[@DJDynablend]

Good work, do you ever have power issues, a lot of gear to be running off one power lead? Especially with your upgraded speakers.

[@DJRickWeb]

+DJ Dynablend the new speakers are actually very efficient on power. Everything together was well below 15 amps

[@DJDynablend]

DJ Rick Web Interesting, okay thanks gives me a little peace of mind

[@flashanddancedj]

Awesome video until the 12:25 mark... I was like woah.... Just as a heads up if you are running that much stuff I would head to Home Depot and invest in some Husky 100' 12 or 10 Gauge contractor series extensions... They gonna run you about $200 a piece and may seem like a lot... It's really not when you think about that little 16 gauge wire running 15 amps out power.. I have seen cords melt from 15 amps....

[@DJRickWeb]

+David Flash & Dance DJ Service Mires that was a 14 gauge 100 ft extension cord. Rarely use 100 fts normally just 50s. My 100s are the only ones that arent 12 gauge. But work out great no issues

[@atv0226]

What's the song playing at 16:48

[@DJ1Hands1on]

Keep up the great work

[@djrenealvarado]

Good for you. Best of luck.

[@brodylindsey4539]

At 0:11 what song is that

[@tomasreas3819]

What is the song on 16:00?

[@DJDURL]

Yo! I live in Reynoldsburg. That's dope. I'll be starting my gig logs soon on another account but maybe one day we will link up and chat about DJing. Dope to see your roadie is close to home and I will follow him also.

[@DJRickWeb]

+DJDURL yeah hit up his channel . He DJs a decent amount in that area.

[@53Berry53]

As always, awesome video man! I may have to hit you up REAL quick for them EONS if and when you sell them haha I'm right over in Illinois so ROOOOAD TRIPP!! Also, I've been thinking with your killer light shows and chauvetshow xpress being outdated, what's your next move? I've been seeing some REALLY cool stuff with the new SoundSwitch system that I think would be killer in your area of the Mobile DJ world. It would be especially helpful for those gigs that Michael can't or won't be with you on. You and him could bust out some sweet custom lightshows for a lot of the typical wedding songs in our midwest region, and use the auto feature for the rest. Just wanted to see what your thoughts were on that SoundSwitch. I love your videos and your snap, man. We've talked a bit on there when we're both doing gigs and it's always awesome to get your insight! Keep it up, bro!

[@DJRickWeb]

+Bradley Robert the eons are up for sale right now actually hit me up on snap. And I have had a close eye on sound switch since it was announced...

[@DJ_ALEXWITTE]

Was that an in the spot KZbin conversion I saw?? 😆

[@goldenshowerz4098]

Hey DJ Rick Web, I have a question. So im going to start to do alot more gigs, and in your opinion, should i buy some cheap speakers and just run them on low volume, or save up to get some expensive speakers. Im not worried about subs, and i have a Behringer Pro Mixer DX 1000, Numark Con-22 Set (Double CD player and Controler) and a spare SilverDwaf Mixer. Please help me out. Thanks :D

[@DJRickWeb]

+GoldenShowerZ thats your choice on the funds you have available.

[@tracylipscomb3582]

You the man ...bro

[@djrandygentertainment4966]

@DJ Rick Web, what kind of material did you use to reinforce the white portion of your facade with? Is it a sheet? I see a lot of DJ's doing this.

[@DJRickWeb]

+DJ Randy G Entertainment its just lycra fabric

[@joechalmers8524]

Wouldn't get that weather in Scotland. 🌧

[@nathanjames1981]

What song at 18:07

[@Fondy13]

I have worked with timelines and help make them. How often do they go as planned? The last one I did ran 30 mins behind the entire day.

[@DJRickWeb]

+Matt Christenson normally it starts behind. But I manage to make up time during dinner and get it just about spot on. But no the times on the sheet never are right

[@StreetMobTruckin]

I forgot to comment lol THOSE JBL ARE LITTT!!!!!!

[@Garuthius]

Any updates on how these speakers are performing. I am just getting back into mobile disco's / karaoke.... looking to purchase some new speakers / subs and just taking all the info and advice I can get at the moment :D Gary

[@DJRickWeb]

Performing just as good as day one. I use them at about every gig

[@JeanKatana]

I absolutely agree with that! We do 90% the same here in Europe. Also same prep roughly. Just 2 Questions: Whats the time of this last dance, there and normally? How much do you get for such a gig with 2 Guys? We get arround 800 - 1200 Euros for approx 10h Presence. Thank you and good one!

[@DJRickWeb]

+Jean Katana last dance for this was at 11pm. Normally midnight on average. And I cant diclose exact numbers but its well above 600 as thats my minimum to go do any event.

[@JeanKatana]

thank you! Appreciate!

[@jerryshelby3700]

How much do you charge for that wedding?

[@LimelightMediaStudios]

Where did you get your facade?

[@DJRickWeb]

I built it

[@djfishscottfisher108]

What Version of "Play that funky music" was playing? Didnt sound original.

[@DJRickWeb]

+DJ Fish Scott Fisher I have to look I have 3 versions. Not sure if I used the original or not.

[@djfishscottfisher108]

I think people notice when its not the original artist. I heard a couple songs that were not original. Sounded like Drews Famous Hits mixes of those party cds from back in the day. Liked the T-Bars way up too. Thanks Rick

[@djilyaz]

You got some good speakers, what do you think of the Mackie Thumps now??? They are the biggest pos's I ever had the displeasure of using at a gig, can't believe you recommended them back in the day.

[@dennisondenatalie]

djilyaz the new ones (BST - Boosted models) are amazing in my opinion.

[@DJRickWeb]

+djilyaz I still recommend them. I think they sound great and can be used in a lot of applications.

[@Molathegreat1]

I use Mackie Thumps I love them. I am looking at may be upgrading to the New series. The BST Technology is blowing me away. I think I will get a 12BST for ceremonies and then upgrade my 1000W 15s to the 1300W 15BST sometime down the line. What I really want to test is the Mackie Thump 18s

[@djilyaz]

I'd recommend them to all my competitors!

[@djjbsmuve346]

Nice Gig log. Did u make your facade?

[@locke6854]

MAIL TIME question!!! Recently I bought a large tv on a mobile roll-around stand (for my karaoke gigs that a growing filipino community in my area was requesting). I wanted to use this screen also when I DJ'd my normal gigs, so I got a bunch of visualization loops and messed around with GrandVJ. I think I want to incorporate this into my next gig as a free bonus for practice and as a try-out. QUESTION: Have you ever thought about doing video imagery? Whether its just recorded loops or music videos or realtime "screen-savers" that pulse to the beat? How could you advertize this and what would you price it? I'd imagine this would be great with a projector and screen.... (and obviously not ideal for daytime outdoor events)

[@DJRickWeb]

+Rob Locke did music video mixing few years back. It died off in my area no one wants it so havent been doing it

[@DJSolstice]

Why is his name not Marcellus?

[@Jack-uy6tc]

hey Dj Rick --what would you charge for an event like this ? Any Gigs in Carolina yet ?

[@DJRickWeb]

Non disclosure on that front. And no

[@Jack-uy6tc]

Understood---to rephrase the question- what is the general guideline for pricing a wedding --I'm a relatively new DJ-- I've done 4 weddings and have most likely under-priced the events. There must be some general formula DJ's use to determine a price- thanks reading this. How would you say the transition is going in Carolina ?

[@DJRickWeb]

Transition rough in terms of business. For pricing man you got to figure is it worth it. Like if someone was to rent the exact equipment you have how much would it cost. Okay than add hourly rates for DJing setup and teardown.

[@Jack-uy6tc]

Thanks DJ Rick- helpful information- I've been looking on-line too- some helpful guidelines. ( I know I've been undercharging ) Good luck with getting set up in the Carolina area- certainly a growth part of the country -- good friend of mine lives in the Greenville -Spartanburg SC , area very active.

[@HunkOfBurningLove1]

price is lots im sure

[@daniellambertsr.6066]

Question why would you use a light setup if the wedding during the daytime isn't that considered extra work and time consuming

[@DJRickWeb]

+Daniel Lambert Sr. Did you watch the whole video?

[@daniellambertsr.6066]

No I didn't but I just did my fault. Keep up the good work.

[@DJRickWeb]

Make or like what I charge?

[@noelserrato]

Hello Rick. I'm a newly subscribed member to your KZbin channel. I have a question regarding your DriveRack2. I purchased mine for the AFS feature and because I thought it would somehow improve sound. Ends up it made my system sound like poo. I guess it's meant to be primarily used for passive speakers as a crossover. My speakers are all powered and don't an external crossover. I tried using my tops on the high output and mid outputs from the DriveRack2, but still sounded like poo. Now I don't use it at all. What are you using it for?

[@DJRickWeb]

Sounds like you didn't edit the crossover points on the driverack for said outputs.

[@DJRickWeb]

If you wanna send me some pics of your setup on Instagram or Facebook. I can help you set it up correctly

[@noelserrato]

That would be dope. Thanks. I’ll hit u up on ether Facebook or Instagram.

the timeline thing you stressed is cool for wedding's where no wedding coordinator has been hired, but some weddings have wedding coordinators and they tend to think they are the Queen of ALLLLLLL and so therefore coordinating with HER is generally something that needs to be smoothed out between YOU the D.J. and the Bride and groom who are they main focal point of the wedding if the bride and groom and wedding coordinator are all present with your business pre-meeting it's a good thing because then u can iron out all lil quirks where ur booth is gonna be.. time lines, what and when your gonna play your jams when ur gonna make announcements.. who gets too use your spare mike and WHO CANNOT EVER JUMP ON YOUR MIKE! sometimes the wedding coordinator needs to be educated.. because they don't always know what a D.J. is all about and what we bring to the party... {WE ARE THE PARTY} . :) .

Your Equipment is out sied no tent if it starts to raine?

[@DJRickWeb]

The original layout was dancefloor and me in the tent. Weather forecast that morning was clear all day into the next 0 percent chance of rain. The groom ask if it would be okay to move it outside the tent and I agreed.

[@nightlifeking]

Would it not have been cool to bring your own Canopy?

[@DJRickWeb]

+Mike Burton I had one choose to not use it

[@oatybuck]

FYI You can book halls and promote your own EDM Dance Party shows and play what you want, you do not have to wait for the phone to ring to do another wedding or sweet sixteen party. People are looking for fun things to do when you are doing a private event with your hands tied to someone else's schedule very few people have any fun... Think Big.

[@mikel9567]

That costs money and takes time and planning. My area would require insurance coverage, a fire dept inspection, security, EMS / medical standby, etc. That isn't including the money for advertising / promotion, hall fees, etc. It's a really good idea, but isn't something you can just do haphazardly.

[@carolinaboy3]

Did you invert your colors on your laptop?

[@DJRickWeb]

+Ben D tried to had little time to see if I could figure it out. So no

[@carolinaboy3]

So it's really easy. Press the windows button on keyboard, while holding press the plus sign on you number pad, release. The magnifier will pop up. Click the settings button(looks like a sprocket) within the magnifier window that opens. Then click invert colors. So you can close out of magnifier to put colors back to normal. Then all you have to do to invert is hit the windows and the plus sign. To get screen size back to normal you just zoom out to 100%

Rule for outdoor wedding, make them house you under a tent or shade canopy or bring your own and charge for it never be out in the blazing sun OMG or if it rains gotta protect your investment. But as the sun set the lights really came out

[@DJRickWeb]

+djaceproductions they actually had a pop up for me. I decided to not set it up since I would tear it down later anyways. And this actually was a plan b. The original plan was to have everything under the tent. Since the weather was perfect we moved it all outside the tent

Hey DJ Rick, I just subscribed. I need help...I'm not a DJ, nor do I know shiit about Pa sytems. I'm having a Labor Day Bash, about 60-70 people and I'm trying to buy a setup for music. My budget is about $1,000. I was thinking 2 powered Mackie thump 12" Loudspeakers and a mackie thump powered 18 inch sub. I want bass you can feel and my question is> Do I actually need a sub or would it be better to go to (2) 15 inch loudspeakers, and do loudspeakers actually produce great lows or is the sub needed? I will be running itunes through my laptop. Also, how good are bluetooth loudspeakers. Do you think I'm going in the wrong direction.. What's your opinion on what I should get. Thanks in advance, any imput would be great
