    Angry How to piss off a DJ

    Heres a few good ways to piss off your DJ when they have to say "No"to an entertainers request for a song thats off format.


    1.Argue in the DJ booth about it for 10 mins during a busy night and promis NOT to tip them that night because they wont play "your"music.
    2.Sit at a table with a few customers and complain about the dj not playing your music.Have customers come to the dj booth and request the same song entertainer asked for.
    3.Rub tits on owner until he comes into the dj booth and changes the format.

    Damn, working with the DJ should be the easiest and most fun part of the job! C'mon people, its not tooooo hard to find something you like that will make the customers happy is it?

    Shit, I the DJ played Evanescence for me the other day, which makes me want to puke, and I didn't complain! LOL

    oh yeah BigGreen....gotta love all of those. i LOVE when the customer comes up to ask for the same song. yeah, like that 45 year old guy has any idea what "slow motion" by juvenile is anyway. i usually say "nope, sorry....and tell the lovely lady you're sitting with that this was a shady move and i am not an idiot. thanks." or better yet when they come up to you with a song that you will never ever play and they preface it with "oh, hey this customer wants to know if you'll play.....". yup, i have heard them all. man, i had a girl request "angel of death" by Slayer the other night. haha wtf. "yeah honey, i'll get right on that for you."

    How to get the deej to like you...

    Hook up with a dancer who tips extra on a regular basis, and he caters to her. Then tip the DJ yourself for his good work.

    That guy practically guarded us with his life. We say, "Toss in a few longer songs?" And it's not "Stairway to Heaven," but you get the drift.

    here's a great way to piss off the DJ...

    First, demand the hardest core rap possible, in a club whose clientele consists entirely of retired, wealthy white guys and rock n' roll surfer guys.

    Second, upon being told thats not possible, mope and sulk around the stage, even when the DJ bends and stretches the rules as far as possible, and busts his balls trying to find music "you can dance to".

    Third, employ the tactic mentioned by Philly DJ, yell at customers from stage "I dont know what this shit is", even though you approved it when the DJ brought you a list of songs both you and the customers might like.

    Fourth, come to the DJ with a customer request for your first stage song, a heavy Korn track you have never heard of.

    Fifth, insist on the DJ playing the song since your customer will tip you for dancing to it, even though the DJ warns you repeatedly you will hate the song in question.

    Sixth, and best of all, when the DJ--who has had a serious lapse in judgement--goes ahead and plays the song, stand absolutely still, one hand on your hip, wagging your other finger at the naughty customer. Do not attempt to dance, or even move to the beat, whatsoever.

    What weould you do, fellow DJs, provided you were foolish enough to get into this situation, haha?

    Funny story on that subject. A dancer Ive worked with many years now in many clubs (MrChristopher, her name begins with a V and ends witha ty,lol) was joking around with me one night and asked me for madonna, so I played it for her (at this time in our relationship I didnt know she was kidding). She ploped her ass down on stage and said "I aint dancing to this shit". It was Fever..and I played all 5 min of it for her non dancing ass as she just sat there. No questions were ever asked of me again,lol.

    Great way to handle it, Philly! And probably better than what I did--which I will reveal shortly. I am curious first to see if there are similar stories to ours, or what other DJs would suggest as a solution...

    Girls who come in the booth and want to "fiddle" with the dials, knobs and sliders: Just because it isn't ON doesn't mean YOU can play with it !!!

    Girls who want to CLEAN and organize my booth: I Know it LOOKS like a mess but I know where everything IS ..... IN the Dark. Please DON'T move it.

    The GANG who wants to congregate in the booth and gossip: The ladies bathroom is much larger and better lit ....usually smells better too.

    Dancers/Customers who bring in scratched CD's: Don't tell me, and think since I'M a PROFESSIONAL ... I can magically make them play: I'm good .... but not that good.

    Perfume/Body Spray in the booth: It's bad enough when you have just drenched yourself in "eau de wet dog" in the dressing room but the boioth is a SMALL, HOT, ENCLOSED area that YOU can leave (despite your immunity to toxic levels of eau de wet dog) but in which I have to stay ...and see in the dark while my eyes water.

    Include all the music choice posts as well.

    ugh, the body sprays.....several girls at my place wear this cloying, disgustingly sweet cotton candy smellin' crap, and there's a fan that blows it directly to me when theyre standing in the booth. URGH. and oh yeah, i'm with Wulf.... DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES TOUCH MY EQUIPMENT. I REPEAT: NEVER. EVER. TOUCH MY STUFF. ESPECIALLY DO NOT STEP FORWARD AND HELP YOUR COMPUTER-ILLITERATE ASS TO THE SEARCH FUNCTION ON MY LAPTOP. AAAAAAAAAAAAARGH. :endrant:

    oh and Djoser, i think we have all had such a "lapse of judgement" from time to time. we're only human. but yeah i primarily do what philly_dj does.....just let it play if you need to prove your point. unless it was something i thought might work and WOW did it not, then i might cut it short with a brief comment about how much i suck or something. i dunno, every situation is different. but for the most part, 95% of the time, i don't play cd's girls bring in either so that alleviates most of the problem.

    oh, on an endnote, i dont really mind girls in the booth. we have a rule where there's never supposed to be more than 2 girls in there at a time, so it rarely gets outta hand. in fact i kinda like the company, as my booth is upstairs away from everything and gets pretty boring sometimes. without someone to talk to, i just dance around up there by myself and everyone points and laughs.

    Heh, when I was Gold Club in Baltimore the DJ booth was up a ladder, any girls who went up the ladder, or stood on the ladder, would immediately be fined some ridiculous amount. I always thought it was because you shouldn't be climbing a 8 ft metal ladder with 8" heels, OR given the escapades a well hidden DJ booth can experience - silly me!

    Under-appreciated DJs: take a two-week vacation and have yourself replaced with an incompetent coke-head slimeball who fecks up the computer so that girls on stage have to dance to fifteen minutes of static, skipping, and wierd electronic noises -- no, it was NOT the new Radiohead -- and see how much the girls love you when you come back. When I saw our old DJ back in the booth for the first time yesterday, I wanted to kiss him right on the lips.

    LOL
    Probelm is ,it all depends on what the majority of dancers are made of.

    If it happens to be alot of coke head dancers on staff at that time,when the dj gets back from his two weeks,the dancers might not want to give up their new coke buddy or the hook ups a coke dj can bring.
