Hi, I am needing a DJ for a gig on Saturday. One of my Regular DJ's has fallen victim of a bad cold! (trying to tell me it's swine flu!) If anyone can help, I would be very grateful. Location York Times From 7pm to 12pm Great easy access venue & Great food! Please text/call 07870 17 15 15 or email info@thinktankent.co.uk Cheers Chris :pizza:

I thought I was the only anorak to notice that too.... I know is sleazy-cruise, but you would think they would afford a decent mixer! ...Left me wondering if the kit was the boat's or DJ Dave the rave's? ...Left me wondering why I was wasting my afternoon watching it!

I had seen this a few weeks ago, thought I was the only one to! How Great is he! What an ambassador to us all! Go DJ Dave! ....oh, he has, just seen the episode when he resigned! ....Oh, Stelios doesn't want him to go and has given him his card! He must be wanting to book him for his Big Fat Greek Wedding!....Guess he's cheap too!

Hi Guys, I have a regular gig in York, for 2 hours each Sat and Sun morning between 10.30 & 12.30 A nice easy number, no kit required other than CD's Decks and Mixer Not a huge Fee, about £50 for the 2 hours, but a nice steady number for anyone in York area. Hope you can help Chris

I always get out there and 'do the do' Always walk in your customers shoes! Makes them feel like it's ok to dance even if you can't! (obviously I don't go out when no one is there! That would just be weird!) Also, gives you chance to do another sound check! I work with the audience, get them on my side and the night goes a lot quicker! Good tip, always have the next disc cued before you do! You can forget you are the DJ and it can be hard to get back in time if you are stuck the wrong side of the floor! :damn:

Hi Guys, Have just had the worsed gig of my life, wonder if anyone else has done one/would do one? I got a call to do a house party for a 'leaving do'...The couple were leaving to go back to Australia and decided to have a DJ/Karaoke for the night. I asked about neighbours etc, and they said they got on with them all and they were all invited anyway. Seemed fair enough! I was already booked for a regular gig on sat, but they were not sure about whether to have us or not, as the footy was on. It all seemed to fit into place, the pub could cancel and I could do the house party for mo

Hi Guys, I have just taken on a contract on in York. Providing DJ's in an entertainment venue for adults and Kids. I am looking for DJ's to fill in on a Tues & Fri Night, and also between 10.30 and 12.30 on a Sat and Sun morning. No kit is needed, other than decks and Mic. The gig is a real doddle, the staff are up for a laugh and the customers are easy going. Please feel free to give me a call to discuss. Chris 07870 17 15 15

Ok How about some classical music, Vivaldi's Four Seasons, Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade, and some Opera classics, Madame Butterfly, Turandot etc. You can also play some flim scores (not Mad Max or Star Wars) Look for some Enio Morricone, ie Cinema Paradiso, or some John Barry; Out of Africa. I play this kind of thing for background music, and it is fab, as it is not intrusive, it fills slience, and relaxes people. I know people think 'why would a DJ play that' but, it isn't there to start a party, it is there to create a romantic atmosphere for the Bride and her fool, I mean the Groom.

....No, But I've had Moths in my Star Cloth!..Does that count? I only get worried that I might have left something at home, that I need....like the other night at a bar I play for a 70's night.....I only left the case with all my 70's discs in my other vehcle from the night before!!! in....didn't dare call the other half, called my mate instead, £20 and no ear ache..well worth it!

Hmmm is it me, or should I not be having the thoughts I am having about them???

Hi Mate I have been using a Laptop with PCDJ FX for over 2 years now. I recently upgraded my laptop, to one with a dual core processor, 2Mb Ram, Ok is sized hard drive, and I use an External Hard drive for all my tracks (52,000 of them!!) You have to be patient with PCDJ, let it get up and running before you use it for the gig, takes about 20 mins, but had no problems with it crashing ( touch wood)!! My last laptop would crash from time to time, I think that was mainly due to the fact I had that for all sorts, not just DJing with, and it was not as powerful as this one. I have heard

Thanks, that's a help, also looking for games with real 70's themes too, but that is a great start. Cheers

as long as I don't bring more than 3 groupies home at a time, she is fine with it!....NOT

Hello all I am in some desperate need of some ideas for party games for 70's nights!! It is a regular place I do, and they are wanting to do more 70's theme nights, which is cool, but want party games to be played too!!!! I have a few ideas, but could use some input? Any ideas would be warmly welcomed

Half the time I do Karajokie, I turn the mic's off anyway!!!!!!!!!! Come on then, what's the mixer? We all want to know!

Well, after saying all that, I am selling my Zafira, 2.0DTI, 66k Black, Elegance model, AC, alloys, leccy windows sunroof etc. If anyone is interested feel free to drop me a line!

Interesting Points, Firstly, having been in the motor trade, for one reason or another, for many years, I feel there are a few issues to be addressed. I think that there is an awful lot of vehicle snobbery, and that is something that you either chose to go along with, or not. A Kia is a Kia is a Kia, like Skoda or any other brand that has come a long way from their poor roots. However, as mainly the vehicle is to be used as a workhorse to be getting me to and from gigs, I am not bothered what it is like, as long as it gets me there. A client will have got an impression of me when t
