Hey I was wondering, at the seaford tavern I know they have a residant dj, do you think If I gave them a call, I could ask if I could see how he does his stuff? like not a guest set or anything, just watching what he does :)

hey thats me man! :)

not really but you wouldnt even have to give him, just shake his hand on the night, let him no your a rookie DJ, he'll probly let you watch if he's not an ass

Just have a chat with him on the night dude, tell him your situation and see what he says.

As Jaz said, if he is not a total ass than he should be happy to let you watch.

Definitely introduce yourself to the DJ. I'm a rookie DJ as well and I'm always saying g'day. Especially if they're playing a wicked tune I haven't heard. Having said that, some DJ's are not interested while others are really keen for a chat especially if its quiet.

I go around having a chat to djs. The more people you know the better I guess. You won't be friends with everyone but the more people you talk to the better it will be for ya. Most guys always give ya a tip or two if you ask. If you spot one of the dj's at the bar after his set, that's probably a good time to start chatting.

I'd say don't be scared of talking to anyone either. Example, I went up to John Course about a earlier this year and he is a top bloke! Gave me some advice and just spoke about some random shit for a bit.

If the d-floor is packed and the dj is midway thru a serious mix, hold back.

If like spitfire said, theyr opening and its pretty quiet, or you see them talking to other people then go for it!
