well, i wouldn't do it, primarily because i don't want to spend money on top 40 music, and thus i don't have it. but if you have it then go for it! $600 is better than a kick in the nuts.

play like 50% top 40[REMIXED !] from CDs[Burnt !] and play 50% your stuff on records.. there goes your solution.

Posted by Radagast on Nov-15-2004 21:48:

DON'T SELL OUT MAN!11 DOn'T SELl OUT LIKE TEISTO AND OAKENFOOL!!!

Well, you could do two things:

- Take the money and be a fool for playing top 40
- Don't take the money and still be a fool because you didn't take the money.

There. That should make things easier for ya.

listen to tek. that's a good idea. take the money. $600 would pay half my rent. i'd go out and play songs for that. (i doubt they'd be overly concerned about my total lack of mixing ability in a hs)

Take the money, but download the music. You can play the Top 40 schite while sticking it to the RIAA at the same time.

nice try, its not even close to $500

600.00 CAD = 499.884 USD

plus its a long standing joke

i dont have any cd talbes though. the only 'pop' songs i have is that gabriel & dresden remix of fallen (sarah mclauclan sp) some shitty maddona remix, and fatboy slim - star 69.

Posted by goonerjack on Nov-15-2004 22:49:

Just put star 69 on repeat all evening, you cant really tell if its looped anyway!

If you have a laptop
-laptop + mixing software + mixer(assuming you have one)
If you don't have a laptop
-go to futureshop buy one, do the "gig" and return it to get 100% of your money back

OH! i could use traktorrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Michael19 on Nov-15-2004 23:11:

say you will do it, turn up and just play what you want.

by that stage it will be too late to get another dj so they wont have a choice but to listen to it.

Dont do it.

Besides, You would end up spending more than youre getting paid to get top 40 records anyways.

Posted by OrZonE on Nov-15-2004 23:27:

Posted by echosystm on Nov-16-2004 00:20:
