    posting on a clubbing forum for a dj for a wedding... i think being a bit more specific would help

    unless of course its a gabba dj you're looking for?

    Not for me either I'm afraid - done it once and found it's very hard work compared to doing bar/club stuff.

    I have a mate who specialises in weddings and birthday parties and the like, if you want I'll PM you his number.

    Well surely 'anybody' could do it then?! :rolleyes:

    You dont need to request a dj at all just if anyone is free on the day of the wedding and owns some cds! :lol:

    Did my mates wedding in the derwent in consett it was nightmare.


    Played all the tracks my friend asked for,plus indi soul funk some decent 80's stuff like prince/yazho/pat benatar/human league etc and motown but got totally slated for not having stuff like the cha cha slide and other utter consett drivel by his extend famliy.

    Some kid kept asking for monkey/scouse house stuff as he had heard i was dj. He could not actual understand that dj's in clubs play other rave music than charver stuff.

    I am the one only by chesny hawks was biggest tune of the night. Closer followed by build me up butter cup.

    Never again will i play a wedding in consett.

    You've got off lightly mate, I play the union in consett most weekends and our crowd is quite good (they like their indie stuff) and they ask for a decent range of music. Elsewhere is a mixed bag - it ranges from cheesy 70s/80s to scouse house and the shite that appears on yer average clubland or bonkers cd.

    Every so often I get a group of charvs in on a saturday night who peer over the side of the dj stand and go "you not got any scouse house or nu monkey like?" followed by requests for tiesto, and then I get slated for using vestax instead of 1210s :lol:

    the bands i have played in always end up doing wedding gigs cos they pay money but they are nearly always a disaster. usually the audience splits 10% who think you are great and shout for more 20% who will get up and dance when pissed but will mostly stare at you with blank faces, 50% who just want you to shut up so they can chat up their cousin in peace, 20% who actively dislike you and stare at you with undisguised hatred and 10% who are so pissed they will fall over and throw beer over you/the amp/the bride.
    i've had the father of the bride strip off down to his underpants in the middle of the dancefloor untill led off by his wife, the mother of the bride insist that we play the same tune three times on the trot 'cos itsh fuggin great' untill she was left on her own on the dancefloor. the bride do cartwheels in her wedding frock and crash into the table holding the presents and have to be taken to hospital and any amount of fights where we got stuff trashed. Oh and "can you play tie a yellow ribbon mate"
    ah happy days

    The liverpool clubland.

    Went to an afterhours club when i worked there after bugged out though it would be some kind of house/techno carryon till about 8am place.

    Full of scally blokes about 25-40 snorting coke off credit cards in middle of the dance floor in lacoste tracksuits while there dolled up girlfriends danced to donked up version of a queen song.

    Took one look around the place me sara and my mate dan then ran for our lives.

    Felt really out of my depth.
