Manage episode 463765566 series 3603058
What happens when your final wedding gigs of the year don’t go quite as planned? Join us as we share candid stories from the trenches, where the unpredictable world of DJing throws curveballs like vanishing dance floor energy and equipment storage chaos. Joe retells a wedding where the crowd mysteriously lost its groove despite them being happy clients, while Brian B recount the logistical nightmare of battling broken elevators to retrieve gear. We pull back the curtain on the hidden pressures DJs face, providing a rare peek behind the DJ booth.
But the challenges don’t stop there. Brian B dives into a particularly intricate event filled with unexpected dietary concerns, family drama, and a demanding photographer, all ending without the cherry-on-top gratuity. Yet, there's a unique satisfaction in navigating such hurdles with finesse.
Tackling a listener’s question, Joe offers his unfiltered take on financial advice from Dave Ramsey and stresses the importance of realistic financial planning as DJs look to the future. This episode is not just a glimpse into the world of DJing weddings, but a journey through the lessons learned along the way.
