Reasons

East
Coast Professional DJ
|
Untrained
Non-ProfessionalDJ |
| Rates
: |
Fair
price, usually between $700$-1,000 depending on the day, length
of time, season and location.
|
From
$250-$500. Too good to be true. They must charge lower rates to
get any work at all! |
| Extra
Fees: |
None! |
You
could be charged for your DJ's tuxedo rental, travel expenses, liability insurance, set-up, breakdown
and more to compensate for your bargain price!
|
| Contract: |
You'll
get a written agreement with your date, time, place and price
to guarantee we'll be there. |
No
deposit, no written contract, and likely to say "huh, what
wedding?" about one week prior to your affair.
|
| Arrival
Time : |
Set
up 45-60 minutes prior to guest arrival to ensure there are no
problem. |
Hopefully
at least an hour prior, if they remember to show up! |
| Attire: |
Your
preference; tuxedo, suit and tie, or dressed to theme of party.
|
Inappropriate
attire; maybe jeans, sneakers, etc. |
| Appearance: |
Neatly
arranged, wires concealed, table skirted or facade cover.
|
No
table skirt, wires everywhere, an unorganized mess. |
| Banners: |
We
don't use banners. They look tacky and mayiappear in your photos. |
May
use an obnoxious, self promoting banner whether you like it or
not! |
| Breaks: |
We
don't take breaks. You paid good money for continuous entertainment. |
Believe
it or not, some DJs take breaks! Too much pressure, not enough
music, needs a drink, who knows?
|
| Planning: |
East
Coast DJs communicate with everyone involved, photographers, caterers,
etc. to ensure a perfect, organized affair. |
This
guy will do things when he wants, if he remembers, without notifying
others. This can cause embarrassing moments. (Imagine the Father
& Daughter dance without Dad!) |
| Personality: |
All
of our DJs have an outgoing personality to create a fun time. |
They
just stand around and have their I-Pod on random play. (Shoulda rented a jukebox!) |
| Crowd
Motivation: |
Great
music selection and a great personality creates a full dance floor
and a great time for all. |
Silly,
inappropriate contests and games not suited for your type of affair.
Who knows, maybe you'll win a keychain! |
| Vocals: |
Very
clear, well spoken voice that everyone can understand. |
Have
you ever heard a McDonald's Drive-Thru speaker? |
| Sound
System: |
We
use top of the line equipment and constantly check our volume
levels for the proper level.
|
Uses
home stereo componets. Plays much too loud. Music and vocals are
distorted. Has no back-up equipment in case of failure.
|
| Music: |
We've
got a very large CD & MP3 music library (well over 100,000 songs) & something for all ages. |
Has
a small library of music and bad taste in music. He only plays what he likes to hear. |
| References: |
We
come highly recommended by prior satisfied customers and local
area caterers. We can and will furnish references.
|
Doesn't
have many references, if any at all, and will not furnish them
because he's afraid of what they'll say!
