I guess I misread the title to mean it was your fist time? Just shows how poor my english teacher was at school, hehe.

About the needle thing though, trust me, I don't want that to happen to me again. |
Your not a real DJ untill you have lifted the wrong needle off:tongue2 That's what I told myself after my first gig. |

What banquet hall? |
Elegance Banquet Hall, at Richmond Hill.
You're more than welcome to come, but if you live in Toronto/Mississauga, it's a pretty long Drive!
EDIT: Address is: 10 Newkirk Rd. , Richmond Hill |

I never done any like this before!
Before this I had two warm up slots (dif dates) at a restaurant/lounge
And a 15 min set (venue had some technical problems, closing)
This will be my 4th 'gig' in front of 'people'
In no way a real club gig though. And if I don't make a perfect demo by this Saturday, and make at least 5 copies to give out...I'm going to kick myself!! :whip: (As of late, I am really making a bad effort to promote myself)
Did I mentioned I am scared as ? I really have a lot of progressive tunes, but no CRAZY, DANCING house tunes... so I'll buy 3/4 tracks before sat. (Probably more, since I need something to play during peak hours)
And set programming...don't get me started... I have no idea how I'll do that. (We are both playing back to back from 10-2am) But I might leave early though, because I don't know if I can keep up for that long. And I'm probably bringing all 130/140 of my records. I can start with progressive house, then vocal house (for the ladies, no?) then more progressive, tribal...?)

Wow, take a xanax... :p
Just chill, playing back to back is super chill, Thats how i learned how to spin at friends' houses. Its much easier than it may seem.. Just get a hold of yourself, organize your stuff and you'll be straight.
Another tip:
Get off TA for a bit and go mix :) |

Back to back is the way I learned and its very fun:) There are those odd tracks that will have a weird break in it and throw it all off:o
As long as you know your stuff you should be fine, it makes for a good variety on tracks with two different djs. |
