    What are your thoughts on Yorkville NX 25 12" speakers?

    I have not listened to them, but judging from the looks, and the fact that it has a Class B amp and only 300 watt power handling, they are certainly an older model. The weight is not bad. 39 lbs per speaker is much lighter than your Yamahas were. I would recommend the newer Harbinger 3412...

    Well a good reason to understand social media

    Did you get any traction from that bridal show that you did? Personally, I never had any success with facebook. I stopped bothering with paying them money in 2022. I DO see your facebook ads from time to time pop up on FB. But, I'm a DJ in Maryland, LOL. I suspect I see your ad come on...

    Looks like my van was stolen.

    Mix, Sorry to hear this happened to you. My sister had her Ford Explorer stolen like 2.5 years ago. They found her EZ Pass down in TEXAS! It was stolen from Maryland. The Vehicle was never found. She had a big ordeal with getting the police reports to the insurance company. THe car was...

    Playlist & Game ideas for overnight teen lockin

    I did a After Prom event like that way in the past. I had trouble staying awake for the drive home. I was barking to stay awake! LOL. I haven't done one of those since like 2007or 2008. I vowed never to do one again. I just can't function correctly after 3 am. Even back then. I wouldn't want...

    Community dance

    I agree. I mean after you have been here reading the forums and participating for 8+ years it gets old. We have covered pretty much everything there is to cover. Most of the same stuff are re-iterated, and the pool of DJs who participate here is rather low so it's the same people, and for the...

    Playlist for a daddy-daughter dance?

    Any poplar songs by Taylor Swift they will probably love.

    How often do you wash your car or take it to the car wash?

    You need to drive it more often! Get out and enjoy the car! Don't care about having low mileage. The longer you live, the less time you have left to enjoy it!

    How often do you wash your car or take it to the car wash?

    I will go 3-4 days of use on jeans these days unless I get black dirt or food on them. Teeth are brushed twice a day, and flossed often 3 times a day :) My dentist always tells me that my teeth are in great shape.

    How often do you wash your car or take it to the car wash?

    We have a friend who has a detailing business. My wife has had her car done by him twice in the past. We will take the Traverse to him every other year right before we take it on summer vacation so it looks real nice. He puts plastic re-newer on the black trim and makes it look brand new...

    How often do you wash your car or take it to the car wash?

    Priorities! I probably spend about $600 a year with the mixture of gas station car washes and the professional car wash. The rest of the washes are done at home. Plus the cost of tire shine, and quick detailer. I haven't bought a gallon of car wash in years. It lasts so long! I have two...

    How often do you wash your car or take it to the car wash?

    You are either not a car person, don't own car, or your car's paint is faded and dull, and dirty. I imagine up there in the north east with all the salt that cars receive when driven after, during, and right before snow/ice storms that not washing the exterior would be a bad idea. At zero...

    How often do you wash your car or take it to the car wash?

    The inside of my car stays pretty clean. We track a lot of dead grass in it from our yard, so that is primarily what gets vacuumed out when I vacuum. There is a power and cable line that is overhead of my parking pad, so I frequently deal with bird crap on my cars as well. If it's a small...

    How often do you wash your car or take it to the car wash?

    My wife got on my case last week because she says I wash my car "Too damn much". LOL I like to keep my cars clean, and my windows nice and clear. Hate rain spots. Hate dirt on my cars. I let the interior go a few weeks before I vacuum it out, but I wash my Toyota Camry pretty much every week...

    We need a plumber so we will see how this experience goes

    There was no issue after investigation. It was just a crack in the ceiling forming for whatever reason.

    What others things do you use your laptop for at an event besides playing music?

    I have two laptops set up at my events. Both have VDJ open. 1 will also have Spotify, AND Tidal/DJAY Pro Open and available. I have Google Chrome Open. Sometimes I will open up DJ song lists to get song ideas to play. I will sometimes log into ODJT from my events! lol usually during...

    We need a plumber so we will see how this experience goes

    Yes, he also installed an access door to the pipes below the toilet in our Kitchen Ceiling. So now we can open it up and check things out. There was no leak from the toilet. It was doing well. No water or leak was found there. Crack in ceiling is gone because the access door was installed.

    Let's talk websites

    I moved to gmail. It just works well, and other vendors sometimes share stuff through google. Go Daddy started charging for the email though them as well. It used to be included for free.

    My newest addition to my Bose collection

    I tested it. They still need to improve it. You have to make sure your legs and hips are securely suctioned to the butt pad. Also, I told them they need to build in an automatic Poo Pourri Sprayer that is motion activated and sprays an abundant amount before the 💩commences. I also suggested...

    Is DJing Easy? Should You Be Nervous Before An Event? How Important Is The Prep?

    On my planning form, I ask how long they want each of their special dance songs to be. I literally have a suggestion of "2 minutes", "3 minutes" or "full song" or they can customize it to fade out at an exact second like "2:20" into the song for example. I ask this question for first dance...

    Is DJing Easy? Should You Be Nervous Before An Event? How Important Is The Prep?

    You certainly spend a lot more time than any other DJ I know when it comes to talking with your clients. I can barely stay awake for 2 hours straight to watch an entertaining movie let along carry out a 2 hour long conversation with people. It's great that you establish that with the couples...

    Is DJing Easy? Should You Be Nervous Before An Event? How Important Is The Prep?

    I don't get nervous, but sometimes I feel rushed by a planner when getting into the bridal party intro because they are determined to stay on time down to the exact minute on their itinerary. SOMETIMES. I will say that most events being 6 hours these days, that rarely happens, and there is...

    We need a plumber so we will see how this experience goes

    You Are correct. That is what I told my wife is likely happening. However, it's still a good idea to have a plumber check everything out. So, the Plumber who I called first only lives 1 mile from us. He is here now. He just cut out a hole in the ceiling and we are having him install an access...

    We need a plumber so we will see how this experience goes

    We have a crack in the ceiling in our kitchen directly under the toilet in the bathroom up stairs. The toilet was installed in 2018. We are guessing the wax wring needs to maybe be replaced We don't see any water stains, but the ceiling is cracking pretty good. My wife found 2 friends on...

    A free gig that everyone wants to pay for

    Just charge them $50 cash to cover your fuel costs, and ask them to make a donation of whatever amount they want to a charity or foundation that you care about!

    What is your feelings on 50 years of Hip Hop?

    I feel that today's "Hip Hop" is not that Hip. Actually, to me it's not Hip at all, and the Hop part is pretty weak. Gen Z isn't made out for Hip Hop. Just Sayin'
