Sorry! I just don't buy it. If there is room for a speaker stand there is room for a sub. Put the Tops on a pole on top of the sub. If the speakers were on the floor raise each speaker and put a sub under it. That is one Lame Azz excuse. You need to be more creative in speaker placement.

Are you sure you were at a Bowling Alley and not a Kiddie Playroom? Next time post pics.

Here is a Bowling Alley for you and this is a small one in a average part of town. Sit back and enjoy the Slideshow http://www.threehundred.com/houston_tour.html

So your ego is so big that anything you do you've got to give them over kill or you don't consider yourself a real DJ. Just give them over kill where everyone is complaining about it being too loud. People must leave an event you're doing leaving with their ears ringing where they need a hearing aid.

Now what happened we were asked to setup right by the railing that leads to the lanes. If I had a sub there it would have been too much. We had to use the stands because originally the speakers were placed on the table and it would have been right in peoples ears and just too much. Trust me it worked great. Remember a secret trick Canute. It doesn't have to always be super loud to impress people. It needs to be super right for the event you're doing. Bigger isn't always better.

Adding a Sub(s) to a system does not necessarily make the sound loud, it gives "body" to the music. There is also such a thing called a "Volume Control". You are Mixing up Loudness with Powerful Sound but that is not surprising, your name is Mix. Carry on!
 
A few pictures could have settled this argument.....I mean "discussion"....

A few blurry pics, not so much.
 
We should all take advice from the guy whose biggest job in the last 5 months is a bowling alley party. I mean I know I always go to the doctor who was last in his class and failed his boards 6 times.

No Jimmy it's not taking advice from me but I knew if I brought in a sub it would have been over kill. This bowling alley doesn't have a separate room that you could have the setup in. One bowling alley did have a separate room with a bar if you wanted a DJ to play there. That bowling alley was very small and he eventually sold it. It got torn down to have something else built there.

No problem here if you want to go watch strippers. That wasn't meant as a rant. I used to be excited to go see strippers. Today it's just boring to me. My thing is they need to pay me money for being there.

Where did Johnny say he wanted to see strippers...?

He was being nice, and figured he'd come on over and say hello, and check out your show. I have no clue how you read into these things Mix :-/


BTW, have you ever considered opening your own place (perhaps a government grant) -- then you could throw your own "parties" every night of the week if you want...?

I didn't say that Jimmy did. It was John who mentioned the stripper club next door. Kind of funny having a bowling alley where parents will bring their kids and next door is a strip club. LOL. Just saying.

It was not John that mentioned the strip club, it was dobby. Do you even read the posts, and see who posted them...?

Sorry I got it wrong. John was the one that mentioned he lived not too far away from the bowling alley and wished he knew there was a strip club attached to the bowling alley.

No -- he said if he knew you were spinning, he would have stopped by. I think you need the secretary to read the posts to you now, and not just write them for you...

They do have remedial English classes these days, that not only teach you how to spell, but also grammar and understanding context ;)

Ozone layer must be not working in certain parts of Joisey Johnny, or he got tazed by his security... ;)


How do you like the new digs BTW...? Did you get a house, condo or apt? I personally wouldn't live in Joisey -- I'd be afraid the governor might fall on me :laugh:

On the other hand, I don't want to be in NY either -- but at least the governor is my ex-boss -- that can come in handy at times...

Hey Buddy,

Joisey was not my first choice, I was hoping for Delaware. But to be honest I like this little town the piece picked out for us. We sold our house in Staten Island because the family out grew it. Spent the last 13 years there. We moved into a 4 bedroom house with a finished basement (my man zone). I am now closer to my event locations and PA.

You'd like Deli-ware John. Especially in lower-slower where Fred and Shirl are. Not much in DJ work, but just waving at the smiling Amish in their buggies made my day every morning and afternoon.

I wouldn't mind living down that way, but still a little cold for my veins. I'm gonna be 55 soon, so if I can move this place, I'll get a nice double wide trailer in a retirement community in S. FL. Write software, play in the pool, maybe putt a few, and just relax with the other old farts.

Mix, we are still waiting for answers:

I am confused....you said you could not use subs.....indicating it was your system....but then said you had to have a guy plug your mic into their system? What am I missing here?

ittigger said:
In his defense, he didn't say 'into their system' - what he did say was 'Went to hook up the cordless mic and couldn't use it because the power button on the receiver was broken. Not a biggie because I have a corded mic and he just hooked that up.'

Good question tho - if it is YOUR equipment, why did 'he' have to hook it up?

ittigger said:
No, I can understand why he thought that - it is a good question. Why does 'he' have to hook up a microphone to Mix's system?

If you want Amish, you need to come to Pennsylvania.

John
Now that you're closer, we should get together. If you're ever near Eastern PA...
send me a message! I'm right on the PA-NJ border.
