Choosing a Disco or DJ
Questions To Ask
Recommendation is generally always the best way to choose whom your DJ should be. Whether it is a friend's recommendation or previous customer comments.
If you are holding your event at a venue, can they recommend anyone. If they sound vague or hesitant - find your own DJ. If they are enthusiastic you are probably on a winner, but ask what music they played, make sure it meets your tastes.
Remember you are choosing an entertainer for your special occasion; you will want to feel safe in the knowledge that this area is taken care of and that you can concentrate on other things.
AgenciesIf booking a DJ through an agency, ensure they will name the DJ that will arrive. Many agencies may have attractive glossy brochures that may look compelling, and may mention on or two DJ's but they may well have many more on their books.
Can you choose the DJ who will arrive? What is their name? Can you speak to them personally?
The Audience.Make sure the DJ is aware of what age group your audience will generally be. Is it a family gathering, works night out, wedding reception or a school disco? Make sure he has music to suit your guests. Maybe ask for a sample play list.
