DJ booth etiquette

I like it when people are in the booth with me if the space allows for it. You can stand behind me or sit on a bench or something next to me. But don't block the monitors or the path to my record bag or be in the range where my arms have to move to do anything like adjust the mixer or something. Also don't talk to me to much while in the booth or ask me to play this or that unless it's a song you know that I love to play then I'll play it for you...I like educated people in the booth with me that know what they're doing in the booth.....

If you come up to the booth while I'm playing don't do these things....

1) Ask me to play hip Hop

2) Ask me to play something by Paul Oakenfeld

3) Ask me to make the music go faster

4) Ask me if you can mix one of my records which is the worst request that someone can make!!!!!

DITTO! ;D

THe best is... "Are you gonna play this Techno all night? :o

I hate that track but know exactly what she's asking for... where's the punchline... I was hoping you were gonna say "And then she dropped her skirt" or something! ;D

ever see the booth for a big name club in NYC then compare it to miami?

Miami's booths are like disney land with every loser possible hanging out...

If you have the status to get in the booth, have the etiquette to leave the booth after saying hi...

I come up, I say hi, then i hit the road back to vip....

In NYC NO ONE GETS IN THE BOOTH!!!! NO ONE!!!!!

i already brought this up when "someone" was bashing on roland on here....
