| 1. | How Much Should I Pay for a DJ? |
| | You get what you pay for. If you are paying some guy $200 to DJ your event, don't be surpised if he shows up with a home stereo and cassette tapes. In most cases, the entertainment budget for a particular event comes in at the 5%-7% range. A fair price for DJ Service, for most events in this area, is between $500-$900. |

| 8. | Do we have to make the playlist? |
| | We certainly want your input and want to play what you want to hear. We feel like it is our job to make the event perfect, and that means judging the crowd and adjusting the music as we see fit. What works at one party might not work at another. Our job is to get folks dancing and having a great time, and sometimes that means switching a playlist around last minute. Our music database form allows you, the client, to give us 25 MUST PLAY songs and another 50 Requests. Based on these, we are able to get a good feel for the flow of your event. All of our songs are radio edits, so you never have to worry about language. We also have a category for DO NOT PLAY!!!! |
