Mobile DJ sick day??

Question to all you mobile DJ's out there. Do you have a backup DJ that you can call to for help if an emergency comes up, or if you get sick? I've been trying to figure out how to prepare for something like that if it were to come up in the future.

How is something like this normally handled, for a wedding, etc?

I've Dj'd sick before and it was brutal. I do have somebody that works under me and is familiar of how I plan my events. It's definitely a great idea to network in your community and get to know other DJ's. Exchange gigs when you guys get double booked.

Yup - find a buddy you can trust! DJing sick is no picnic.
