ChrisPointon 0 Posted January 21, 2003 Report Share Posted January 21, 2003 O.K nobody likes to be the first to post, so I suppose I'll be the first to share this embarrassing moment from my past........ Most D.J's have a routine for the selection of smoochies played at the end of the Evening and I am no exception http://www.chrispointon.f2s.com/Forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif . Most have also a special track which is played at the end of the Evening, some of the more popular ones being Robbie Williams - Angels, New York, New York etc etc. During a gig back in 1994, we were also playing one particular track to finish off the Evening, and, well, sometimes you just get into a routine and play the track without any thought...... Just before 12.00, I had to pay a visit to the "Small D.J's Room" to answer a call of nature, I left my Roadie in charge to play the final track to finish of the Evening, secure in the knowledge that even he couldn't make a mess of choosing and cuing up the last record (Good old Vinyl Days!). could he?? YES! He could..... I returned from the toilet to hear the sounds of "You'll never walk alone" coming from the P.A - No problem you may think?, well it IS a problem when around 90% of your audience that night are in WHEELCHAIRS. Oh dear!. yes out of habit he had played our usual track without considering the irony of the title. Luckily the Evening had been a great success and our audience saw the funny side, but it goes to show that you do have to concentrate on your music policy and avoid anything could could offend!. Sometimes it's not that easy as I found out. I still cringe when I think about it, although it has been forgotten and doesn't come back to haunt me...until now http://www.chrispointon.f2s.com/Forum/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif Link to post Share on other sites
