Yeah and get a few drinks before you get behind the tables. Not too much though

You are good enough to have been booked- dont stress.

Dont overly plan your set either- go with the feel of it.

Good luck chief!

Hey Chex, I'm playing my first REAL gig on June 12th. It's the Mad Hatters Tea Party in Austin, TX. I have the "honor" of going on after Ron-E, who is one of the top djs, if not the best dj in Texas. I was a bit nervous at first, but I have some REALLY good tracks lined up and am looking forward to this. I will need to drink 2 dos equis before I go on though. Good luck to you man. I know how you feel.

All of this is very true, great advice. Try to keep an eye on the crowd, and adjust the types of tracks that you're playing to what they seem to be enjoying if at all possible.
