theres this gig i have next month..but i found out today that theres gona be mostly rock fans...i normally play dancing music..like hip hop, techno ect.

the guy from the gig told me theres some harcore rock fans there...i never played rock through out the whole set.. should i just forget about fancy mixing..and just regular mixing since rock fans dont give a crap about there music..they just bang there heads or something like that...advice for a rock party?

Play metallica all night

Or RATM.

the first thing you should do is let them know you normally don't play rock. ask them if thay can provide a playlist.

Goat Whore, Cradle of Filth, Slayer, Anal Mustard


i'd prefer classic rock, as much of a hip hop head i am, i listen to classic rock more often on down time.

disturbed, rammstein, static-x, taproot...

... it's cool to mix those too - and don't forget ac/dc, kiss, europe, cindy lauper (bad ass bitch!), marilyn manson...

soo many to name...

p.s. - seriously, don't forget cindy lauper - they will love it!

hahha.

i dont like rock. i've tried. i've tried my best. i just can't like it. ever.

wait dont rock bars usually have these things called "bands"........I would tell them that you dont play rock music for an all night set, and unless they can provide you with a playlist maybe they should find someone else.......

I dont see why DJ's take "every" gig they're offered..... sometimes its just not worth the money........I turn down shows all the time, because they dont fit my style. I wouldnt wat a client to pay me good money to have me do my thing and totally not fit into their event.

its not just a regular gig..its going to be my best friends b-day party and i mean, he ask me and told me at the last minute there was gona be rock fans,plus its a new experience for me wich is gona enable to learn and work new crowds..

play HATE!!!

*HATE Claw*

Ahh I see.well in that case then youve got yourself a predicament, you dont really have time research it, so tell your boy to give you some music.

I love being well balanced. I am a true hip hop head at heart but I've listened to rock my whole life as well.

yeah ima ask him for a list of certain music atleast to help me out a little

$$$$$$

if you were offered a job at McDonalds would you take it? that pays $$$$$$ too. loll

LOL I hear ya... but try tellin that to the people that work at Mickey Dees!

A job to DJ at WacArnolds? or to actually work there....cuz thats a thin line for me

pm me and I'll give you some advice... I just took a residency at a rok club.

calvin got a job,gettin paid getting paid, im so proud of you calvin......

I dont know whats worse, shitty rock music or "good" country music.

good country music is definitely the worst.

sopranosupasta: not even the 70s/80s rock ?

yeah, but i usually mash it up with a hip hop beat. I just dont like taking gigs that for 1) i dont want to do and 2) i dont think i could do as good or better than someone else.....thats why i dont do weddings and functions like that, the last thing i would want to do is ruin someones wedding day for saying their name wrong or something, at least at a club i can just rock the spot and go home.

"You DJ so bad you have to turn down gigs"

guitars rule
amps that go to 11 rule

"You DJ so bad you have to turn down gigs"


you dj so bad you CNT turn down gigs, you takr every chance you can to suck. lol jk.

You can grab some Rock/hip hop Mash-ups. Always works for me. It's important to be true to yourself, but try to please them too. It's a balancing act.
