Corabar Steve 0 Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 Friday: 18th (indie orientated & great fun) not a hope in hell of playing this week's song Today: Night off (with next Saturday the last 2 off until November) to sort things out for my 40th next week (although we do have 3 discos out tonight, I'm just not doing any of them) Sunday: Gardening & general maintainence of kit.

TonyB 0 Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 40th party this evening 60's, 70's and cheese, my favourite sort of gig. Clients are having a barbecue first. Was hoping the weather wouldn't be so good this evening as I expect most of the guests will want to be outside. Will have to use my wit and charm to keep them on the dance floor smile icon Link to post Share on other sites

High Fidelity 0 Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Friday was my youngest sons 21st. Had to do the disco myself as I wouldn't wish to inflict one of our family functions on any DJ. None of our family dance, and my son informed me that none of his friends dance. But at least it's not so bad when you know in advance that no one is going to dance. Quite a good night though, he and some of his mates entertained us for an hour playing guitars and singing. Worst part was having to put so much gear in to cater for them, (4 guitars and 2 mics on stands), and then having to break down at the end of the night on my own as he was obviously well oiled by then. Saturday night was a Rugby presentation night. Nice easy job with background music till the presentations at 9:30, then party from 10:30 till midnight. Even had a couple of dancers through the buffet, which is something I've not had for quite a while. Quitting Smoking & Drinking doesn't make you live longer It just feels like it.

Kingy 0 Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Had to play nearly all of Black Lace's greatest hits on saturday.

bluejools 0 Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 I went to my first wedding in quite a while - so it was my chance to see a fellow DJ in action for the first time in a while. Not a great crowd for him - but me an my missus tried to help out! Link to post Share on other sites
brianmole 0 Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Saturday, had a 21st in a very very posh mansion in Surrey thanks to Marc, music list required a bit of urban, a bit of dance, and party music. Setup at 5pm, then waited till about 10 to start after cocktails, meal etc... Were due to finish at 1am, but it was going so well that we eventually finished at 2:15am. Got home at 4:15am :scared: Music wise was really satisfying, played a load of current dance, RnB, party stuff, and finished on a little DnB set :Thumbup: The theme was Film Stars, and there were plenty of good efforts including the mum who dressed up as Mrs Shrek :nbow: As the 21st was for a girl, did that thing our NZ friend does - got the young lady seated, and got all the blokes to serenade her with the Righteous Brothers - Unchained Melody. She loved it :Thumbup: Roadie/support services were provided by our very own RichardP, many thanks :Thumbup: The downside was that I has non stop hay fever, but the enjoyment made up for it. We had very little space to setup in, so I was tucked in a corner with one Bose L1, and put the other L1 in the other corner along with 4 LED PAR56's on a tripod. Stuck 2 moving heads on the floor, et voila! Pics from my new Nokia N73 phone: Today, just chilled at a family festival nearby. All in all, wicked weekend. Link to post Share on other sites
TonyB 0 Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Saturday night turned out much better than expected despite the bbq and my fears that guests would prefer to be outside because the weather was so nice. Dance floor was pretty full all the time from when we kicked off at 7.30. Twins who's 40th it was were very pleased and I got thanked over the mic. Got a nice tip too as well as giving out a few business cards. Probably the amount of drink flowing helped and I was persuaded to play one more slow dance (Angels) after the final track (New York, New York). Playlist was: Golden Brown Stranglers I Don't Like Mondays The Boomtown Rats Everybody Wants To Rule The World Tears For Fears Mr Blue Sky Electric Light Orchestra Downtown Petula Clark Don't Go Breaking My Heart Elton John & Kiki Dee You're The First, My Last, My Everything Barry White Always On My Mind Pet Shop Boys December 1963 (Oh What A Night) Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons Haven't Stopped Dancing Yet Gonzales Teardrops Womack & Womack Hot Stuff Donna Summer Into The Groove Madonna I Wanna Dance With Somebody Whitney Houston Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Cyndi Lauper Give It Up KC And The Sunshine Band The Power Of Love Huey Lewis & The News Holiday Madonna Relax Frankie Goes To Hollywood Livin' On A Prayer Bon Jovi Summer Of '69 Bryan Adams I Gave You My Heart Hot Chocolate We Are Family Sister Sledge Let's Hear It For The Boy Deniece Williams Le Freak Chic A Little Respect Erasure When Will I See You Again The Three Degrees The Girl Of My Best Friend Elvis Presley Blame It On The Boogie The Jacksons I Will Survive Gloria Gaynor Heart Of Glass Blondie Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel Tavares Ride On Time Black Box Don't Stop Me Now Queen Ghostbusters Ray Parker Jr I Don't Feel Like Dancing Scissor sisters Macarena Los del Rio Cha Cha Slide DJ Casper The Grease Megamix John Travolta & Olivia Newton Y.M.C.A.
