| Well it's not funny if you weren't there, but I was doing a one hour set at a 'Trance party', and on the prints and flyers it said 'Underground Trance 2 DIE 4'. So I'm all happy to do my set, cause everybody is supposed to be there for Underground music. There's this rather hot girl that comes over and says, really cocky 'None of my friends know the music you play, do you have vengaboys ?'. That killed me :D |

Top 3 Quotes for my D.C. lounge gigs
1) "Do you have anything besides 'club music'?" (while playing deep jazzy house)
2) "Do you have any hip hop?"
3) (Next quote said before I even started playing, I was still setting up my turntables) "Are you the DJ tonite? I ing HATE dance music." |

Aye there are some dumb people around.
Somebody requested a track during my live-set. Hmm lady, notice how there's no records or cd's around only keyboards, synths, samplers and stuff? And some people don't understand that and think you're too cocky to play their request....doh |

This is a great thread, I have to add some more.
Fortunately, this didn't happen to me...
I was watching my buddy spin in D.C., he's playing a great funky house set, throwing some 80's in the mix, got people dancing. This girl comes up to him and asks if he would take a break & play her full length pop CD. What a retard. He was cool about it, he let it play for 2 songs & then he mixed out of it. |

i once was DJing a house party and this stupid bitch came up to me and kept telling me to play 80's music or "something she could dance too" (I was playing funky and proggy house and the place was rocking).
i was nice to her at first and was like, "well here's the closest to 80's music i have, Dave Gahan of Depeche Mode" so i threw on the G&D remix of "I need you" everyone there was going crazy. these three dudes came up to me to find out the name of the track.
but stupid bitch comes back and was like "no body's dancing, play something i can dance to"
i told her to jsut look at the dance floor cuz everyone was dancing except her.
of course she kept bothering me and telling me to play her music. i kept igonring her. and eventually she started yelling at me, and i told her to off, that she didn't know , everyone else was dancing except for her sorry ass.
then she gave me the finger and stormed out :) |

youll never ever ever get away from those 'can you play hip hop?' questions. honestly, i dont mind spinning hip hop, if thats what i am brought to the party to play.
this one time, my friend asked me to play a hard trance set for his party and while i was spinning some guy came up to me and asked if i could play 50 cent - in da club. I told him that i was doing a hard set now and that song would never mix in... trying to be nice i said, maybe when my set finishes in an hour ill try to throw down some hiphop, as long as no other djs are planning to spin. The BPM of my set was 139-140.. and about 2 mixes later this guy comes up to me again and asks again for 50 cent. I tell him, no, not in this set... it wont mix. And he flat out tells me "no, you are wrong, it mixes perfectly with this song".
Everytime people asks for request i never diss their music. Even if its pop that they love now, but will hate in 2 months... i try to be nice and throw something down that they will enjoy. but , i was so pissed off... people telling the DJ how to spin is just retarded. |
