Gig Log Saturday 6th August.

Evening all.

Just thought I'd let you all know how my house gig went tonight (Saturday 6th). It was for a friends 35th.

The weather put a bit of a downer on it, but I was set up in a shed (big metal one), so that was good. It did keep people from coming into the shed from the other under cover areas outside, but I can live with that.

Cause it was in a shed I only used my smaller speakers and amp. But they coped really well. Didn't even need my sub.

I used my projector for some of the 80's video clips (I run virtual DJ). That went down well. And some of the newer commercial dance tracks. Must get hold of Shots by LMFAO though. Kept getting asked for it and the wireless network wasn't working so couldn't download there and then.

Other than that was good. Smoke machine, a couple of LED pars and a laser (all controlled by Freestyler) worked well, nothing froze or hung, well once, but that was because my drunk friend knocked a cable and had to reset!

Was a shame the weather kept my friends friends away.

Pics soon guys.

Cheers all

Jonno

Nice man seems like the night went well, I would've loved being tucked in my own shed, no one to annoy you when mixing lol

That's a mad setup you got, hope you charge extra for the projector even if it is mates rates, cause they aren't cheap!

Cheers.

One thing I've found doing home gigs, is that the "younger" crowd get bored easily. Especially the females. They will ask for a track and if you don't play it straight away, they disappear. And even if you do play it, you get half way through and they leave the dance floor. They tend to think you are an iPod.

The older crowd don't tend to do that.

The projector was good though for advertising my website. During the audio tracks it displayed it on the screen.
