No! We only charge for the contracted time that we are providing
our services. The DJ plans on getting to the event and leaving
with enough time to setup / teardown. The Customer should
not be charged for this time.
7. How much time is required to set up?
Typically, the DJ arrives an hour or two before your start
time. The DJ sets up and familiarizes himself with the layout
of the venue. The DJ will try touch base with the caterer,
photographer and other vendors that are involved. During most
events, the DJ and his Event Assistants will personally oversee
the set up and remain on hand to ensure your event runs smoothly.

Our systems produce clear, concert quality sound at a comfortable volume level. They are carefully adjusted to the acoustics of your room and the speakers are strategically positioned so that your guests can effortlessly socialize at surrounding tables. Unlike many competitor DJ's, our systems are well balanced for a clean wonderful sound at all volume levels to ensure you and your guests have a pleasurable experience. We want you & your guest to be comfortable at a volume that you feel is reasonable. Sound levels can often depend on where
you are sitting at or the acoustics of that room. Helpful Hint: Whenever possible, don't seat your older relatives close to the D.J. set-up.
9. Do you bring back-up equipments?
We always try to carry some type of back up equipments. But
this shouldn't be a major concern, because our equipment is
top of the line, professional sound equipment that is used
regularly and is well maintained. The chances of equipment
completely failing is extremely rare. The truth is many company
don't carry back up equipment. Most of there backup systems
are on the road doing other gigs. And if they do carry back
up you'll be paying extra for it.
10. Am I obligated to feed the DJ?
No you are not obligated to feed the DJ; however, it is a
nice gesture to offer a meal of some sort while everyone else
is eating. Often your DJ set up an hour or two before your
actual event, plays for a minimum of four hours, and will
be there an hour after your event taking equipment down. If
you're not going to feed the DJ or other services you should
let them know ahead of time so they can make other arrangements.

you more because of their enormous expense of owning thousands
of songs that they may never even play. We have carefully
researched and selected songs base on musical styles, age
groups and ethnical backgrounds.
