1. Oh My God. 25 years DJing? You must
be like 60 or simply ancient! How old are you?
Well, I don't reveal my birthday to anyone, but I can
tell you I'm barely over 40. If you look here a year
from now, I'll be 41 :)
2. So, how many wedding receptions have you performed at ?
a. I have performed at over
400 wedding receptions.
3. May I see you
perform at a wedding reception?
a. No. My policy is to NOT
allow viewing of my services at wedding receptions or other
private functions. It would be unfair and unethical of me to
allow a stranger to "pop-in" and watch even a few minutes of
their big day. It would give the impression that I care more
about the "next sale" rather than the party in front of me.
I would much rather lose a booking than allow my services to
be compromised at ANY private function.
4. How much do you
charge?
a. Easiest answer I can give. All weddings in Bradenton are
only $1199 for up to six hours of service. Lighting is NOT
included.
5. Why are you so
expensive?
a. Really? Well, this phrase comes to mind. "You get what
you pay for"
There are plenty of $400 and $600 DJs out there. Let them
fight for everyone else. I want quality clientele. Plus,
I am a
Full-Time Professional.
This is how I make my living. 90% of DJs in this country are
Part-Time Hobbyists.
6. Are you limited
to only 4 or 5 Hours because you have another wedding?
a. NO! The venue dictates the time allotted for a wedding
reception. I will only ONE WEDDING PER DAY. This assures you
that the quality of Disc Jockey Services you will receive
from me will be at the highest level.
7. Are you a "High
Strung DJ"? or Do you make yourself the "Center of
Attention"??
a. I always thought this was the funniest question I ever
received. I guess someone was concerned I would dance with a
lampshade on my head. The short answer is NO, I'm not
High-Strung. I don't automatically play games, use props, or
make a spectacle of myself.
I will customize
your event to your needs, I will motivate only when the time
is appropriate, while not intentionally making a everyone
look at me. I am NOT the center of attention, YOU are. If
you do want games and props, I certainly do offer them.
8. How early do you arrive
prior to a wedding reception?
a. My arrival time is guaranteed to be 30-60 minutes prior
to the contracted start music time You are never charged for
this except if there is any extra time required outside of
60 minutes (i.e. the venue requires someone to be setup 4
hours early) will be charged a nominal early set-up fee of
$100 per hour (rounded to next hour).
9. What do you wear
to a wedding reception?
a. I will always dress in appropriate attire according to
the event and your wishes. The default is a tuxedo (yes,
even in Florida), but feel free to have me dressed as you
wish.
10. I've heard
horror stories of drunk DJs, DJs that smoke like a chimney.
Do you do either of those??
a. ABSOLUTELY NOT! It is truly the act of an unprofessional
DJ to smoke and/or drink while on the job. In fact, even off
the job I do NOT smoke or DRINK!
I'm sure you have
more questions than this. Call me toll-free at (888)
