I was taking pictures for a friend at one of his gigs and he had a lady come up to him asking him to play certain dance participation songs. There was one song he played for her from that device she handed him that was great. It was called Dance Dance Dance. Can anybody tell me who made that song? He originally thought she was talking about the song from Chic.

It's the second one. It would never be the first one! It's a slide song and not a crappy song like that. Besides I wouldn't play a song that has curses in it.
 
The first one (the "crappy" one) is one of the top in the nation .. and you can play the edited version. Your refusal to play it may be one of the many reasons why you have the shows you have.

Well that shows you how today's music has gone in the toilet! Not a problem with playing the edited version. The song still sucks to me but when I'm at work it's not about me. It's what will make the people happy and want to dance. That's if you can dance to that song. Trust me I play songs both old and new that I personally don't like. I played First Choice "Doctor Love" last Saturday. I never liked the song when it first came out and still don't like it. I played it because I know the crowd would love that I played it.
 
Mr. It... Big Sean may be a hit where you are, But it's a BIG STIFF here. It really has an odor. SMELLY like an a**. It just stinks. Like the garbage I throw out. AWFUL!!!!

That particular song is a hit with all the kids / top 40 & hip hop clubs. Outside of the kids / clubs, no one really cares for it here either. Personally, I am not a fan of the song.
 
You normal odds are 50% ...


You have to remember I live in redneck territory. If you don't have all 5 Confederate flags, you are in deep sh_t.

Might be different in Conn, but this is Rebel country here.

I refuse to play that song too and I get some pretty lucrative gigs. Not every topic is one to hate on Mix.

Mix I do not play the first song either, not even in an edited mode. I am pretty lucky that the teen dances I play at most of the parents really do care what their kids are listening to. They also like the fact that as we have cleaned up the music, more of the thugs have moved on to other locations and more of the kids that did not show up to the dances (because the thugs were there) are now coming. Overall dance head count is up, trouble is down and it all came about by not playing BAD music!!

There is plenty of clean and good music out there to fill a 2-3 hour dance, without playing the artist who only learned four letter words standing on the street corner, when they should have been in school.

I play it as needed. Like I said, I'm not a big fan of it either. If I can avoid playing it, I do. If I do play it, it's ONLY the edited version. I definitely avoid it in certain venues, such as school dances.
 
ittigger,

I can see where some may play in venues where songs like these are normal, clubs, bars, young adult private parties. I don't look down my nose (ever) at those who must play in those venues to make a living. I thank God I don't have to, as those aren't always the safest enviroment for you or your equipment. I have spent enough time in places in the world that were scarey dangerous, I don't want to have to DJ in them :)

Same here. Like I said, I'm not playing this tons .. but it does get some play. I also don't look down my nose at those that have to play in the various types areas and venues. I've seen this alot at 'younger' weddings too. Come to think of it, that's probably where I've been asked for it the most.

So you're working in the same venues as Mix now?


Not really -- mine consist of white folks.

In our community of about 35,000, we have perhaps 19 black folks. Up the street in the city proper, is where they all hang out and shoot each other, smoke crack and oxi, and that sort of sh_t.

Amazing as it may seem -- I'm the first line of defense between the city and town.
