Guests - 67 at dinner, approx 80 for reception
Time - Cocktail Dinner: 5 p.m. to 10:20 p.m.
Dancing: 10:20 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.

Second wedding at this small venue. I set up a second mixer in the main hall for dinner as I have to run 4 boxes, one to each room....I then move to my main rig for the reception.

Last time I ran 2 FBT Maxx6A's on the floor. One of my FBT's is still in the shop so I ran 2 RCF310A's on the floor. The actual room is about 15 x 16 and empties into a main hall.

Once again I was blown away by these boxes. Putting them on the floor allowed some "coupling" which added to the bottom end. The highs were clear...

Yes when the room was full (at one time there was about 30 people dancing), I'm sure there was some volume loss. But in walking around the sound was great.

Manager even asked me to turn it down at about 12:30 a.m. She was concerned with guests sleeping upstairs.....

Hey - great list Steve ! I love it when the folks here post their playlists and photos....You wouldn't believe how much you learn by seeing what other guys and gals are playing at their events......

I mean that's what it's all about; Sharing and learning........


























(sorry, just a bit lonely):sqfrown:

ROTFLMAO

Ya know...the bottom part of your second post wasn't on my screen, I'm like "WTF? Isn't that his own post?"...I went up and down, scratching my head trying to figure that out before I scrolled down further.
 
5:20 for dinner / coctails? Ay yi yi! :sqeek:

How do you know the times you played the songs? Do you actually right them down, or is it in the software you run if you are a computer DJ?

If I get a chance in the next few days and I can find it I'll post my Rasputin Video betcha you play it next time out :sqwink:

I can't play it because I don't have it.... and nobody in Philly would even know what the heck it is.....
 
thatmusicguy said:
You gotta play Rasputin...have you heard it?????
Click to expand...

Not exactly. The only time I heard it was a version on iTunes that is not by Boney M. Sounded like karaoke to me....

I'm telling you, NOBODY in Philly knows this song, except MAYBE a rare DJ.
 
It would be a good opportunity for you to make the hits instead of just playing them

I might do that if I played clubs... but I wouldn't do that at weddings.
 
My suggestion would be if the YMCA, Stayin Alive, Brick House etc work try it then that type of crowd would eat it up it has a great beat

OMG !!!!

Boney M - Greatest Hits....buy it.

You'll even get theit Christmas Hit; Mary's Boy Child

Ok, I'll check on it. As I have said a dozen times before, I don't think Boney M. has even been played in this state. I asked a few other disc jockeys about Rasputin and they have no idea either.

But all you Canadians sure do love / use it.

It's real music....like our beer....

Did Pennsylvania miss out on the disco era?

No Steve... as I am probably the biggest disco fan still in PA... He just never made it here.
 
Nice list Steve, as usual.:) I am checking out a few of the Celtic songs you have listed to add to my library. I love playing Scolding Wife by Great Big Sea, with the right crowd it gets a great response! I first heard about that song on one of the B&G's wedding favour cd's!

How is Leif Garrett's version of Runaround Sue?
