Keep in mind when you read this that most (top-40) tracks are about 3.2 minutes long, and 9 times out of 10 a request conversation takes about 4.1 minutes.
”..Do you take requests?” | (NO.)”Sure.” | (BEAT IT.)”What do you want to hear?” | “You know that song..” | (Oh here we go..)”Which song?” | “You know… The one that says, (mumble singing..)Start Me Up?” | (..???.. You should have thought about that more before you came over to FUCK UP MY MIX!)”Which one?” | “That song by Rihanna.” | (BEAT IT.)”Which one??” | “You know, (mumble singing..)Turn it up? Or something like that. I forgot..” | (..???..)”Disturbia?” | “Yeah ‘that’ one!” | (ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. ..Google that shit on your iPhone that you seem to not want to take your hands off of in the club (what is with that anyway?) before hand and just show it to me bitch-ass.)”Sure.”
The DJ is not a instantaneous jukebox. You can ‘pay’ for requests of course, but just like the machine, you might not hear them when you want to.
Just a little tip for future reference.
