[quote=Anonymous]I worked as a DJ at bars, clubs, weddings, parties, etc...DJs are known to play prerecorded mixes any chance they get and make it look like they are selecting and cuing up songs to play.  I occasionally did that early in the night when the place was dead.

When you hire us to do weddings and we charge you an industry standard arm and a leg because DJ'ing weddings are HARD to do in general, especially if we have to MC the event and at the mercy of the bride/groom playlist, usually it's the bride.  No one wants to screw up a wedding.

When you want us to play a request and if it's a random, obscure song that will scatter the dance floor, we will politely tell you "I will see what I can do" and will not play that the song the whole night, I don't care if it has sentimental value.  DJs are generally cooperative since they have to deal with drunk people night after night.

DJs sleep with women after gigs? Yes or at least get their numbers.  Women love DJs.  I will leave out details, whatever happens at clubs, stays there.

If there is too many people on the dance floor for a length of time and the bar area is empty we will deliberately play a song so it gets people off the floor and ordering drinks.  We are there to support business as well as entertain.
