10 THINGS NOT TO SAY TO A DJ
1. PLAY SOMETHING GOOD...SOMETHING WE
CAN DANCE TO !
The DJ has to play for more than one person...so
what you hate may be another's favorite song
and EVERYTHING played here can be danced to
one way or another.
2. WOULD YOU PLAY SOMETHING WITH A
"BEAT" !
BE SERIOUS! We know of NO songs played in a
club that don't have some sort of BEAT!
3. I DON'T KNOW WHO SINGS IT AND I DON'T
KNOW THE NAME OF THE SONG, BUT IT GOES
LIKE THIS....
PLEASE don't sing for the DJ. They have to put
up with smoke filled rooms and dangerous decibel
levels all night long...Do them a favor and DON'T
give them a rendition of your favorite song.
4. EVERYBODY WANTS TO HEAR IT !
Oh, sure... you polled everyone in the club and, as
their spokesperson, you're requesting the song.
5. EVERYBODY WILL DANCE IF YOU PLAY IT !
The DJ won't. I guess that blows a hole in that
theory!
6. I CAN GET LAID IF YOU PLAY IT !
Why settle for one night? Buy the album and get
laid for a whole month!
7. I WANT TO HEAR IT NEXT !
The ONLY people who can get away with that
statement write the DJ's paycheck!
8. WHAT DO YOU HAVE ?
It's a lot easier for you to go have another beer
and figure out what you want to hear than it is
for the DJ to recite the name of every record in
the booth!
9. HEY, MAN, NOBODY CAN DANCE TO THIS !
It's NOT advisable to say this when the dance
floor is packed (but some people do anyway) !
HOWEVER, even if there is only ONE person on
the floor, it STILL contradicts the statement!
10. PLAY IT SOON, BECAUSE WE'RE LEAVING !
If your gonna leave after he plays it, why
shouldn't he wait till the very last song so you
stay all night! If you wanna get your request
played faster, try writing it on the back of a K 50
bill and handing it to the dj.
P.S. - If the dj has one hand on a mixer and one
on the turntable he is busy and if he has his
headphones on please dont yell at him A: he cant
hear a fu***ng thing your saying and B:he doesnt
come to your job and scream at you so please be
patient and he'll get to you as soon as possible.
