Yer best bet for getting trance heard at a school dance is to DJ it youself and even then you would have to mix in commercial garbage to keep people happy.

hmmm...even if a dj was to do it for charity, you would still have to provide travel and boarding arrangements...your best bet is to contact as many djs as possible...safety in numbers, law of averages...something's bound to turn up!

i doubt you would be able to get big names to do it for charity, definitely not for a school party with a couple hundred people. and i also agree with everybody who said that that sort of music probably wouldn't have many appreciators anyway. Lots of people only want to hear commercial bullshit and hip-hop, chances are that the closest to trance they'd allow would be DJ Sammy. That's why trance is probably best left to the clubs.

Why would any DJ want to play at your high school, let alone a big name?

Not only would the DJ have to do the gig for free, but they would also most likely have to pay for travel and hotel expenses out of pocket. I doubt you would find anybody big name that would agree to that for a school dance. You are better off looking at your regional selection of DJs if you are determined to get somebody.

I'm sure they'll do it for charity if there was a certain cause.
But charity meaning free gig to help out your school? I doubt it

watch out DJ Keoki may rape the freshman boys
haha i had a dream just a little while ago, where i was back in highschool going to those stupid flors dis lis balls and such.
and Sasha was DJing it.
i remember talking to him before hand saying that i really loved his music blah blah blah, but that i didn't think any of the kids at the party would dig it.
sasha said "just watch"
the party was off the fucking hook. everyone was going crazy and was like "this music is awsome"
I also had a dream once where Steve Lawler was DJing some school dance of mine, and i got to open for him. and he relaly liked my set, and i remember going with him to go record songs under UNKLE.
. That's why trance is probably best left to the clubs.
