I have been DJ'ing for several years. I learned from my brother in law who was an old school jock in the 80s and 90s in the big cities of the east coast. He got married, settled down and got a day job.
Sometime around 2001 he bought another PA system and got back into DJ'ing part time.
When I married my wife and we became brother in laws, it was natural for me to help him and learn. He had CD mixers, an amp and two big ole heavy speakers.
I have played guitar and sang in bands and am just an overal music freak.
We combined our talents and did some really nice events. It was easier to do as a partnership. Loadin in and out was faster, we had more fun, we able to take turns doing breaks for food and mingling with the crowd, and split the $$.
Anyways...he and I are going in different directions with the DJ thing. I enjoy it and want to do more, while he is loosing any motivation to do anything other than lay on the couch, watch TV and smoke.

I do small events, private parties, an occaisional wedding, and some special events during the holidays.
I probably do about one event per month.
This forum loooks like a great place to be and learn some valubale tips from those more experienced.
Thanks for letting me hang out.

Ah crap....just what we needed, another Steve on board. lol

Seriously, welcome to ODJT and your intro is much appreciated; gives us a bit of insight into the new guy. I've had a DJ partner since the beginning (1994), minus about 6 months and I much prefer having one over not.
