Please hear me out before you judge me. I'm asking this question because of the thread recently where Sawdust was doing a Christmas party and a guy that had to much to drink was harassing a few females.
If you were the DJ doing that party how would you handle such a thing? I remember him saying he found out about this happening. He didn't say when he found out just that he found out.
Anybody here ever have to deal with a person who's had to much to drink and starting trouble?
I was talking to my buddy that's a DJ and I said if they have a bartender. The bartender should nicely tell them they have had enough to drink. Some will protest and say I'm grown. The bartender should then nicely say it again without creating a scene.
I myself can't remember the last time while doing a private event that something like that happened. Now for me if I noticed something like that happening I would get on the mic and talk to them nicely to stop if there's no staff present at the time. What I do when it comes to something like that I first don't just agree to do an event just because there's money to be made. If I don't feel comfortable with doing that event because something like that might happen, I say no to doing the event.
Now before some of you come with a slick comment let me say this. My 2 big things I like to find out to begin with is the type of event it is and where the event is going to be. If I don't feel comfortable with either one of those things I will let them keep looking.
Now like I said it's been years since I had to worry about something happening at a private event.
I remember way back when I first came back we were doing an event and I was using a pair of Peavey SP-2G speakers, QSC 2450 amp, Numark CDN 88 and wired mic. At that event some guy that was drunk asked if he could play for a while saying let me do something. I nicely told him we got this and he went on his way. Never bothered us again the rest of the event.
