The most annoying thing is talking and telling the same old jokes thinking he is an MC and we paid for him to entertain us. Meanwhile your dancer, tired after dancing 5 minutes without music stops and sits while the DJ continues to talk giving you 10 minutes or more of dead air.![]()

plays "half songs" while a girl is in between songs and getting dressed, but not announcing it as such for the ladies in the VIP... We get the half song to dance to for the guy....than what?!
" If I can't be a good example, then I will just have to be a terrible warning."



the most annoying thing are the voice overs, when they try to get all fancy and blather all day long. Please just announce the dancer's name before and after her set and thats it.
whats a PL to do?




Talking at ALL
Just intro the dancers, play the song and shut the fu** up!

Not to twist the thread any, but I'll list my DJ do's and don'tsThe best DJ keeps his (her) mouth shut..lets the dancer be the star..

Do's:
1. Announce the dancers (including which girls are "on deck", and "in the hole").
2. If your club offers private dances, food service, cigars, other services, announce these occasionally.
3. If any of the music choices are your discretion, play music that's good for gals to dance to, i.e. NO country.
4. Announce special events that your club is offering like features, customer appreciation promotions, etc. I hate finding out about this stuff in a copy of "Night Shift".
5. Does the club have a website? Announce it please.
Don'ts
1. Don't overplay songs that are sadly becoming strip club standards of annoyance (almost ALWAYS techno in some degree). These would be songs that you'd NEVER hear on the radio, but hear nightly at the clubs no matter how infrequently one visits. Examples: Prince - "Pussy Control", Revolting Cocks - "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy", and pretty much ANY Lords of Acid song.
2. Don't try to make yourself the center of attention. You're there to assist the dancers, not have them assist you.
3. Don't try to be Andrew Dice Clay or Howard Stern up in the DJ booth. I like a good dirty joke too, but I wanted to hear them now I would have gone to a comedy club.
4. Strobe lights - When a customer is lying on stage with a tip in his mouth directly beneath one, would this be a good time to set that puppy off? Uhh....no. I'll attest to that personally.
5. Perhaps just my greivance, but why do DJ's think we come to PARTY when we go watch dancers. Quit trying to get everyone to yell and scream. Most of the clientele are probably tired after a hard week at work and would like to RELAX watching their favorite gal. Just because we're quiet doesn't mean we're not having a good time.

OMG !! I sooo f'ing hate this shit [grr] I haven't encountered this since I made the shift to going on weekday afternoons from sat nights. On dayshift the crowd is made up of retirees with the music toned down and a quiet dj. Gotta love a peaceful atmosphere and the attention of the ladies cuz i'm the only guy not old enough to rent a car and not collecting ssi.5.

I do too. One of the DJ's here is exactly like that. Half the time he gets the girls name wrong and plays weird shit. How is Ice Ice Baby a good song to dance to?

At a couple of clubs I visit the DJ will actually start insulting the customers because he feels they are not tipping enough.
"What are you guys GAY, tip the ladies"
"Get off your fat asses and tip the ladies you cheapskates"
"If you don't have the dough, its time to go"
I understand he's trying to help the ladies but believe me there are better ways to do it. I don't appreciate hearing this crap especially after dropping a good chunk on change.





RH, how about this one: I had a dancer call me over to the stage where she requested that I remove her g-string with my teeth. Sure, it sounds sexy, but have you ever tried this when she's wearing one a little too tight? It was harder 'n hell to get that damn thing off and it made my teeth hurt! Luckily for me, the DJ was there to quip: "Having a little trouble with that huh? Maybe if they were boxers you'd have an easier time with them...bet you get lots of practice there!" Which sure, was kinda funny, but at the same time it didn't exactly make me want to go back up to the stage to tip anymore and risk drawing further attention to myself.

Our DJ loves to put down the customers too. During "Birthday Surprises" The girls frequently strip the poor guy on stage buck naked. Some are bold and actually stand up and wave it around shaking it at the crowd. Others are usually just humiliated. The DJ piles on: "Whoa! You call that a penis??" Some guys take it so hard they leave as soon as they get their pants back.![]()

I am so annoyed when a certain DJ refuses to play the songs I have requested so he can play the same old tired sets he always plays for me.....his excuse? "You're known for your rock sets so you should only play these songs" BORING!
Real excuse in my opinion...just plain lazy. By the way I always tip the DJ well.




Are you kidding?? The previously referenced DJ tries to get $40 a night out of all the girls. With 30-50 working, even if he only gets it from half or the ones he takes care of, he is making waaayyyy too much for what he does.
The only time I tip him is to get my ATF out of the rotation.![]()

There was a girl dancing at the club who went by Pocahontas...she was Cherokee and looked like Cher (30 yrs ago) Anyway the DJ insisted on calling her pokea heinie...She was a sweet girl and I woulda liked to whack him...dick.... One excedingly funny thing happend one night there was a feature (Harmony Grant)... she was on stage and my cell vibed.I was expecting my wife,and she knew where I was but the DJ saw me on the phone...and stopped in mid song/dance..silence.. he says "who ya talkin to,man?" so I said "my wife" no music and Harmony standin there,she thought it was funny as hell,walked over and held out her hand,so Igave HER the friggin phone. So she stood on stage and had about a minute long conversation with my wife. they had met before, but the other customers were like,wtf? it was weird but funny as shit.
."A long time ago,being crazy meant something...nowdays everybodys crazy"


My only grip about the DJ's is they never have anything that's new. In know the girls are the one that picks their music but sometimes the girls takes requests from customers to dance to and they don't have it. Hell, I say about 70% of the time when Miss NB is working I'm more or less her DJ for the night because I have the new good stuff. This weekend she wants me to bring in my whole CD wallet just so she can have good music to dance too.
Also, what I hate the most is when they have the whole batchlor party stage dance things going on. They always have to throw in. "Next up, Tijuana!" I absolutly hate that. I hope they won't say that shit tommorrow when I get my birthday gift!
Open his mouth!

"Sexy...sexy as hell"
where do I start? wait I shouldnt asnwer this question, it would take up like 200 pages of database room. LOL

Most DJ's in this area, "REGRTHGVERGTFBDFf fGRTHGRTHGB efgeargrtgaetg, also available for VIP and table side dances"





When the DJ tells a dancer over the speaker, "I'd play Ozzie for you if you knew who the fuck he is."Originally Posted by amylynnej
When a DJ plays Barry White for more than one dancer per shift.
When a DJ slows the song waaay down to be funny.
Doesn't know when to shut up.
Plays the music at decibals of about 180 or more, to the point where you think your drums are going to give out.
Thinks he's funny when he is insulting customers.

*Force-chokes the moron who did that the other day*
Ahem.
DJ's who can't do things on the fly when some cock-up or other throws a celebration or party out of kilter. I saw this the other day when one of the birthday girls had to go home because she was drunk off her ass and couldn't participate in the on-stage hijinks. The DJ handled that terribly.
DJ's who can't read the rotation sheet properly. This has happened to the ATF and myself a few times. She's done her stage routines, then came back to me, and a few songs later, she's called up again. She stops what she's doing to sort it out and the DJ read the rotation sheet wrong. Fucker.
