Either use it, exactly as is, or don't use it at all.

Really? Whenever I play it, it does very well, often generating a conga dance type line.

I get what Hank's saying. From time to time, here and on other boards, I have gotten DJ questions via Private Message. My standard response is to ask why they feel entitled to a private reply rather than to get differing opinions by asking on the forum. I've never gotten a response. And in...

I almost started a new thread, then did a search instead. I recently got SoundHound. I gotta say, it's the best damn free app I ever got. It's so good that I wouldn't hesitate to pay 99¢ for it. Hell, I might have paid even more! You can download stuff from Apple's App Store directly to your...

I use a Mac. I load the movie into iMovie. Once there, select it in iTunes to get it transferred to the iDevice. Then it will show up in your videos app library.

Years ago, I had a facade that I built myself that was a color organ. It had a plywood back, then crinkled foil, then 3 runs of X-mas lights, and frosted plexiglass front. It was bulky, heavy, and frankly, cheesy. I now use a single piece of plywood covered in speaker carpet. Simple and not...

I officiated 1 on 11/11/11. I had several additional inquiries that were on the edge of my service area. For Saturday 7/7/7, I was asking for a premium surcharge. I got at least a dozen additional inquiries, but nobody wanted to pay the premium, so I went to a casino - which was what I wanted...

"Father of the bride" is a nice title, but it should never be spoken on a microphone. All of the guests, including the dates of people who were invited, should at the very least know the bride and groom's names. Therefore, the introduction should be "[bride]'s father, [name], ...." Even...

Wait a sec.... You were gonna do it at a discount, and you're upset that they found someone even cheaper?

Sigh? Damn, you're hard to please. So let me spell it out for you: If I had a choice of doing an event for my regular rate, or a lower rate, and the only difference is the number of people, I'd do the one at my regular rate. If I had a choice of doing an event for my regular rate, or a higher...

OK. I'll play along. The number of people is irrelevant. I'd be inclined to work at my regular rate. If my normal rate was $1,000, I wouldn't consider working for the $750 client. If my normal rate was $750, I'd wonder what the $1,000 was expecting that caused them to offer more than my normal...

I think the ending of the clip correctly illustrates why this will NOT become popular.

Those are my only choices? I refuse to offer a discount no matter how many or how few guests there will be.

I will not do house parties at all. Too many problems with loading and setup. Plus people tend to spread out making it impossible to really entertain problerly. I have no problems with back yard parties as long as the load in is OK and that there is an outdoor shelter in case it rains. I.E. No...

This may sound weird coming from a former member, but the NJDJN is a great organization. FYI: The reasons I am a former member is because I more-or-less retired from being a DJ a couple years ago, and I often have a conflict on Tuesday evening. Steve left out a couple important points...

when i saw that title i started to think of an other board whare i visit alot that constantly had these young girls that come in and ask if there boyfirend is cheating and want advice from a bunch of strangers because we are a mostly male group so wed know if hes cheedting or not and we all...

The method is irrelevant. The important thing is, you forgot to enter the information. Once you get to the point where you actually miss one, rather than "narrowly averted missing", you'll become far more diligent.

Record stores and Columbia House. I couldn't find a good record pool.

For the record, I have never used Twitter, and was on FaceBook for about a week, two years ago. Even so, I "got it". But I still can't stand the colors.

It really depends upon the multi-op. If the owner has a lot of pride in his business, he'll train properly, and pay properly. If the owner is more concerned with cranking out gigs, and making money, then there will be little to no training, and little money. Perfect example: The Pros pays next...

Aside from the near blinding I got trying to read it, it's an interesting concept.

To the general public, download and stream are the same thing. Or at least different things,but they don't know what makes them different. Kinda like DJs that don't know the difference between RIAA and ASCAP / BMI. I won't hook up other people's equipment either. But I'll download from iTunes...

Let's not forget that he was NOT the CEO. He was the Interim CEO.

When I release tables, I announce the B&G and VIP tables first. I then announce "If anyone has a medical reason for not waiting, please go ahead. Otherwise, just to keep you from having to stand in line, please wait for your table number." That way, I've put them on notice, as well as giving...

Just some random thoughts: Going to meetings, and the expense involved, with no assurance they will book, is just a part of doing business. It's called a "Free consultation." I book about 80% of the prospects that I have a meeting with. I NEVER book at the meeting. Nothing is "booked" until...
