How do DJs do Extended 8+ Hour Sets without
going to the washroom 
If I remember correctly, Ferry did leave the booth during his 8 hour set in the KH. They covered the DJ booth with fog, so you couldn't see.
I think they just do it during a longer song.
I wonder if Ferry got his own bathroom back there or if he has to use the one by the entrance lol.
Just imagine him lining up to take a piss, sometimes those lines can be pretty long... also what if a bunch of fans started asking him for photos or autographs, and he really needs to go...
there are doors that lead into corridors behind the KH stage area. you can get to washrooms, the staff only areas and private lounges etc through them. how do you think the bouncers move so fast between rooms?

I've seen many a DJ leave the booth to use the washroom. One of the most recent times was Sander at TIL a few months back. He did use the regular washroom - but was escorted to and from it by a couple bouncers.
They also ensure to take a dump before extended sets
When Austin Leeds was at the Gallery he left during his set to go to the washroom.
The funniest was on the way back to the booth by the little VIP table, he actually slipped and wiped out and almost pulled me down with him haha. His back and leg was covered in guv slop lol.
Poor guy.
Howells at footwork... 7 hours and not a single trip to the washroom!
I'm pretty sure they have a tube attached to their weiners 
Some drugs make it almost impossible to do that, even if you want to (not that I'm speaking from experience here).
But trance DJs can just spend the whole night on the crapper, since most of them don't actually do anything up on stage.

Sasha went to the 'washroom' like 4 times during his 3.5 set...
Plus he kept hiding in the booth so he could take a smoke haha

With CDs and laptops nowadays, taking a break at any time is a no-brainer.
However in my vinyl days, I pulled out party songs like Paradise By The Dashboard Light or other hard to find extended remixes on vinyl and mixed vinyl compilations that would last 10 minutes or more.

I'll be doing a 8hr set for a charity tonight.
Longest I've spun solo is 4 hrs.
I've already marked the distance to the nearest pee point and calculated approx. time to and back. Hopefully my piss doesn't last more than 1.42 mins, or else I'm screwed

A bit of preparation and a hasty trip when needed will suffice. This is where songs like Modulation by the Pleiadians come in handy 
I read about a DJ pissing under the booth BC he refused to leave the decks... that is dedication.
