Mobile DJ's transport

[Funky_Steve]

What do you guys use to transport your gear to/from a gig?

I've seen some use a box trailer.

Also been involved with some of the big operators who use a van/s to carry multiple units.

I've gotten by with the good 'ol family wagon for many years.

Anyone have anything special?

A tiny Nissan pulsar, and u have seen all my gear, very very tight fit....

[Funky_Steve]

How the hell do you fit all that into a Pulsar??

Is it a special DJ edition with expanding boot?? lol

Or is your front passenger a Bass Bin?

I got me a good old commie wagon with a nice big stereo. Not lowered and with a standard, silent exhaust to avoid any label of bogan or similar.

Back seats fold down to fit four 15 inch speakers, sub, 2 amps, two light stands, nine effects lights, and the mrs in the front seat.

But normally i don't take all that to a gig. Normally tasked with getting the mrs and her friend from northbridge on the way home though...

Years ago when I worked for a multi-unit company I used to drive a convertible celica.

One night I was playing at an 18th Birthday party at a soccer club where way too many guests had arrived (I think it was advertised at their school and they were charging $5 a head at the door). Not enough security as the club didn't expect the huge turnout and things started getting out of hand.

Long story short - cops arrived and shut the party down early. I rung the boss and he said no one could get there to pick up the gear for hours and if I could take it all home.

So I packed the amp and my music into the boot, console in the front passenger seat, but had to take the roof down and squeeze the speakers upright into the back seat, side by side. Looked pretty cool but not something I would want to do more than once.

Wish I could have wired them up to the car stereo. Would have been cool!!

PLugged a pair of P.A. speakers in the space of the door speakers when I used to drive... wait for it... a 1971 HQ.

Looked like the biggest bogan-mobile but it dominated my friend's stereos!

Wagon with a 6x4 fully enclosed box trailer dangling behind. The trailer's pretty much full, and occasionally the boot of the wagon has a few things in it. Once I get new stands they'll do on top of the trailer, and hopefully I'll have some more room again!
