Worst things that people have told you while djing?

Last Friday:
A drunk girl with a DJ Romania-ish accent: "Hey DJ, can you play some banging electronica like Benny Benassi?"
My answer: "actually I'm playing live so it's only tracks of mine but I can take the mic and beatbox YMCA if you want"

That was so good!

HEY MY FRIEND
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING MY FRIEND
YOU MY MAIN MAN MY FRIEND
LISTEN TO ME I COME FROM WHEREVER AND I LOVE THIS MUSIC

"yo dj, can you play that song that goes untttt tsss untttt tsss"

I caught this over on the DI forums some years ago, and whether or not it was originally produced by the guy who posted, I would imagine it was born out of some actual experience:

Top ten things you should never say to a DJ: 1. PLAY SOMETHING GOOD...SOMETHING WE CAN DANCE TO ! 2. WOULD YOU PLAY SOMETHING WITH A "BEAT" ! 3. I DON'T KNOW WHO SINGS IT AND I DON'T KNOW THE NAME OF THE SONG, BUT IT GOES LIKE THIS.... 4. EVERYBODY WANTS TO HEAR IT ! 5. EVERYBODY WILL DANCE IF YOU PLAY IT ! 6. I CAN GET LAID IF YOU PLAY IT ! 7. I WANT TO HEAR IT NEXT ! 8. WHAT DO YOU HAVE ? 9. HEY, MAN, NOBODY CAN DANCE TO THIS ! 10. PLAY IT SOON, BECAUSE WE'RE LEAVING ! And above all....if the DJ has one hand on the mixing board, one hand on the turntable, and the headphones on....Don�t bug him ....HE�S MIXING!!!!

I remember when I was in this club and this DJ had his head burried inside the mixer and was turning some knob reaallly slow and with lot of concentration (pretention I think)..

I went up to him and said: 'Hey man, what the heck you are doing, dont break that stuff.. I have some good CD collection in my car.. you wanna me bring it up for you?'

"have you got a microphone? I want to do some MCing"

knock knock........who's there?...........fuck off

Play soulja boy

Great

"mate, dont play your minimal shit here"

"do you have any funk or ministry of sound?"

"do you have any reggaeton or duranguense?"

i have unfortunately experienced a more elaborate version where the 'mc' decided to bust into rhyme into my fucking face with his bourbon breath, i nearly puked on his head.

I had Tigerskin - Neontrance spinning at a club around 126BPM a few years ago. A kid came up at two different points and showed me his cellphone...

"Marcel Woods?"
"Tiesto?"

DOES IT EVEN SOUND LIKE THEY WOULD FIT WITH WHAT I'M PLAYING!?

" There is this new song , where a guy and a girl sing together , do you have it ? can you play it ? I LOVE IT !!! "

" I LOVE HIP HOP , CAN YOU SPIN SOME FOR US ? WE DROVE 200 MILES TO PARTY TONIGH ... "

The weirdest thing happened to me once. I was DJing in a club in Washington DC , in the summer of 2001 , and a beautiful girl came up to me , put her finger inside my ear ( to filter out the noise ) and said ...

" THE GATES OF HELL ARE GOING TO OPEN , WE ARE GOING THROUGH THE
GATES OF HELL ...."

I thought she was requesting a track , so i said i dont have that one sorry .. ( not that i would have played it if i had it!! )

so she goes away and comes back a bit later , and does the same thing

" THE GATES OF HELL ARE GOING TO OPEN , WE ARE GOING THROUGH THE
GATES OF HELL ...."

i didnt understand , so i shook my head ....

comes back an hour later and says the same thing ..

" THE GATES OF HELL ARE GOING TO OPEN , WE ARE GOING THROUGH THE
GATES OF HELL ...."

OK , this time , she freaked me out , so i told her to please stop bothering me , and i told the bouncer next to me to keep an eye on her.

She didnt come back , but she kept walking ifront of the DJ booth grinning , smiling ....

a week later ... SEPTEMBER 11TH 2001 .... !!!

i know its just a coincidence ... but its a freaky story .. !!

once i put a sign outside the booth thats says:

"this is not a rollerskating rink or a high school dance...we do not take requests...if you dont like this music you are at the wrong club."

I got thumbs down from some chick at some point once. And another chick once were so into talking right into my ear so she manage to kill the sound somehow. Great times.

Classic indeed, funny especially if you played for like 15 minutes and have a few hours to go

"Can you play something with a melody?"... during an epic trance mix.
