    Lately I have seen several DJ' s wearing black dress pants, black polo shits with logo's on them, and black shoes to DJ weddings. Do any of you feel this is proper attire for weddings? I'm asking because presently I wear something slightly more dressed up than that but my dry cleaning bills...

    Bar Bingo?

    Had a guy call me said he was looking for someone to take some gigs in bars for "Bar Bingo". I just had to bring PA system. Has anyone here ever done these gigs before? The guy said it pays $35/hr for 2 hours. Nice extra filler income is way I'm looking at it.

    I'm sure someone here has experienced this but for those who haven't see the following email interaction I had with an internet scammer: I received an email from a guy asking me for a quote on a birthday party in April. I emailed him back and gave him my number and told him to call me. He...

    VDJ7 vs VDJ8

    I have used Virtual DJ 7 Pro for a long time. I know virtual DJ 8 is out now but when I tried it I just didn't like it as much. Everything seemed to look smaller on the screen. Maybe it's the skin i'm using for it but can someone who has successfully transitioned from 7 to 8 tell me why I...

    Prodjlighting.com???

    Has anyone bought lights from this website before? They have some decent prices. Just curious if they are good? I saw a video online of them at the MBLV this year. So they have some reputation I guess. Just don't know enough about them.

    Earning 100-200k in revenue as a Mobile DJ? Is it possible? If so how?

    Growing my DJ business from a small side business to something more full time is the challenge I am facing these days. I'm not sure how to go about it. I figure I need to earn enough to replace my full time job plus benefits and still show some profit to reinvest into the business to be...

    Going from PC to Mac...Should I do this?

    Since starting my DJ business 10 years ago I have used a PC to DJ with. Basically because at the time I started I was more comfortable with PC's. I have since become more familiar with Mac and wonder if I should switch. I see a lot of dj's using macbooks and I'm wondering if I'm missing out on...

    DJ Table? Do you bring your own or use the venue's?

    Until now I have always used the venue's table for setting up my DJ booth. Recently I had a venue that not only made me setup my own table but they wouldn't give me a table cloth for it until I PAID THEM FOR IT! I had to rent the linen for $7. Also the table wasn't very wide so it limited my...

    Going from single-op to multi-op. How to get music?

    If you had to build a second system from scratch where would you get the new systems music library from? According to most music pools each system needs to have it's own subscription. That's fine but that usually only gets you current music. How would you go about getting all the old stuff...

    Portable Jukebox Rental Service?

    So I was talking with a photobooth guy and he gave me an idea. What if I were to have a service for people who are simply looking for just background music for a party they were having, but didn't want to pay for the whole DJ experience. Like a photobooth but for music. Simply roll in, setup...

    Going TRULY wireless? Rechargeable speakers?

    Has anyone heard of a good sounding, reliable, battery powered speaker system? I would love to have something for small events that doesn't require tons of power cables. It would also be great for ceremony music requests where I'm outside or not near the booth. Anyone else look into this?
