Mom and young daughter (5-7 yrs old) come up and ask for “Coconut Joe”.
Me, i do the huh?!? look and say i’ll see what i can do, thinking never heard of “Coconut Joe”….
Looking through the crates about 30 mins later looking for a different song after spending 5-7 mins looking for this “Coconut Joe”, lo and behold what do i see……”Cotton Eye Joe”. Get it cued up and ready to go next song, they skate away to it then leave. Couldn’t even tell them the correct name, oh well…
“play some kylie”
“that’s not really the sort of music we play here”
“but you played florence and the machine!”
*dj toast’s jaw drops open*
“hah, see, you’ve got no answer to that!
“you’re right, i really don’t”
i dunno what she meant - that she thought i wouldn’t play kylie minogue because she’s female, is the only thing that makes any sense to me.
tell you what though, if you add all the stupid requests i’ve ever had together, they still wouldn’t annoy me as much as the fucking cunt who’s stamping her big fat clog-wearing feet in time - sorry, ALMOST in time - to every bloody record tonight.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! for about two hours now.
*stab*
Last night doing a thing for a school. While they were having dinner I threw on an old RnB mix. Was going fine, while I’m waiting for the tables to get cleared off (they were on the dancefloor) a girl came up.
“who’s in charge of the music”
I told her once the tables were cleared I was.
“can you play some lady gaga”
I told her once everything was out of the way and I could actually get started I would, she walked away.
Once I actually got started I played a couple of tracks to get everyone up then put on a LG track.
While It’s playing the same girl comes up “can you play some lady gaga”
I looked at the deck, looked back at her “ummm, this is lady gaga”
She replied “but like, lots of it”
She ended up being the girl of the night endlessly coming up asking for different things.
Another girl asked for “I don’t know what it’s called by the let me see your hips swing song” Then proceeded to sit right in front of me and give me dirty looks for the length of each successive song that wasn’t it.
let me see your girls
Girl comes up the other night and says something unintelligible that ended with the word “girls” and the word Nelly. I said, “Huh?” Same thing…I asked, “Promiscuous girl?”
“No no, by Nelly!”
“Um, ok, you’re gonna have to speak english.”
“Let me see your girls by Nelly”
“Yeah um…I’m pretty sure there’s no such song. I’m gonna assume you mean Grillz…which I probably won’t play, but if I do, it’ll be in about 20 minutes.”
She walks over to 2 or 3 of her friends who are not more than 5 feet away from the DJ Booth. Less than 30 seconds later, one of her friends comes over and says (perfectly clearly) “Um…can you play Let Me See Your Girls by Nelly?”
I said, “If you can come back to me and tell me the correct name of the song, I’ll play it.”
“Let me see your girls.”
“I don’t have any girls, and Nelly doesn’t have a song called let me see your girls.”
That was the last I saw of her.
you know, that song?
Hey do you have that song? What song? you know that song? no sorry I don’t, what song is that? do you know the artist or name of the song? No I don’t, you’re the DJ…… Yes I am. NEXT!
