best advise i can give you is to be prepared.

the better you know your music and what you want to play the better it will go because you will be confident in your skills, and you'll enjoy yourself more..best of luck.

Thanks, I will do that, that is what I've heard the most so far.

good luck dude. I remember my first gig like it was yesterday. i was so nervous that I was actually pretty calm lol.
Honestly, my suggestion if you are really nervous, is to pick out 2 songs to start with that are the exact same bpm, so you can play them right off and get used to the system and equipment. This way you can get your nerves under control and not have to worry about fucking up right away.

Originally posted by Zild There is no 'golden' rule about when to start the next transition. Sometimes you might want to mix out of a song even though there are still 5 minutes left. Other times you might play it all the way and mix out with 30 seconds left. There isn't a formula.

I'd say... if the songs aren't harmonically compatible then only mix for 30 seconds. Apart from that its just hearing what sounds cool/alright.
