DJs, when it's slower do you pay attention to the type of customers that are in the club and sort of play to them? Maybe in some clubs the general customer base seems to like the same type of music or you're only allowed to play certain types of music, but my club's customers are very diverse and we're allowed to dance to anything.
Now, it's a Tuesday night and there's only three older white guys in the building. I'm thinking: "Good, they'll probably like some Stones or some Clapton," which I dance to a lot. Nope, the DJ plays U+Dat by E-40 and T-Pain and Duffle Bag Boy by Playaz Circle and Lil' Wayne. Both songs are in my files, I do like 'em, but why on earth play hip-hop for these old white guys especially when I've got shit loads of classic old-guy rock in my files? And you know what, later in the night when the place is busy and full of young guys, don't you know that that's when I get Paul McCartney and Wings and the Zombies. I love them too but certainly not for a young party crowd!!
Or again, it'll be nothing but some old white customers and the DJ will play me reggaeton, then after those guys are gone and some spanish kids come in, then the DJ will come and talk to me and be like: "Are you in the mood for some Beatles?" Where the hell were the Beatles when the old guys were in here? Now is the time for reggaeton! WTF? Am I just overreacting and being a picky diva?
