How much money do you make from it?

Based on this statement I would tell them where they can stick their gig. Seriously, what is the point of keeping a gig that you don't need that isn't fun for you to do anymore. I would understand if you really needed the money, but to sit their and play shit that you don't like for 6 hours straight for your enjoyment and a bit of extra cash is crazy. I know that the DJ is responsiible for playing what the people want to hear, but the venue is responsible for getting a DJ that plays that type of music. They shouldn't get any DJ and then expect them to spin hip-hop or whatever. I would just drop the gig all together, you don't have fun doing it and you don't depend on it for income so why do it at all?? Chances are there is some hip-hop DJ out there looking for a gig that would be very happy to do what you're not happy doing.

My asking price per hour, so no complaints there.

Wraith: I was pretty miserable for much of the night yesterday, thinking about other things I could be doing. I'll see what they say though.

im suprised you even have to think about this. why would you stay at a gig thats asking you to play a genre you dont play, thats just silly.

I'm assuming you have a full time job doing something else, and DJing right now (or at least this gig) is for some extra money on the side and the fun of it.

If that's true, quit. You don't want this gig ruining your fun with DJing. If I had a job and was DJing on the side, I'd DJ only stuff I enjoy - I already got a "real" job sapping my lifeforce, I don't need DJing to do that too!!!

im just a beginner but advice is advice

first off you arent enjoying it... theyre wasting your time, especially if you dont really depend on the income

if you can find another place to spin, go for it...i imagine you dont want to stop playing, so dont... find a house friendly venue and see if you cant get a gig there

you said it yourself, you're ready to walk

your time is too valuable to be wasted doing something you dont care to to...

If your not enjoying it then quit. Its not worth being miserable for hours especially since it is just a side job and you don't need it.

If you dont need it, and dont like it, then quit it.

But my god i wish i had a job like that.

You have to remember...youre still getting paid to play songs. Probably more than the bartenders, or waiters or whatever there is where you work. And i doubt they enjoy their jobs.

and you think you have problems....
