is still available.

3 hours
Is the client able to meet the DJ before booking?

Yes, ehtnic origin doesn't matter; we're familiar with nearly all ethnic traditions.

Yes we're fully equipped and with equivalent backup gear to handle up to 1000 people. I might also add that our sound system is a cut above what most DJ's consider state-of-the-art.
What (if any) special equipment, such as disco balls or lighting, is offered with your service?
As the "Gear Guru" for ProDJ.com, we've got it all - Besides music, we can provide music videos and/or slideshows on large projection screens and/or plasma TVs, uplighting, colorful dance floor effects lighting, large 'club style' lighting, live video camera and an entire array of special effects like cold fog, haze, bubbles, mirrored balls etc. Our latest addition is a night-sky laser starfield.
How much time do you usually need to set up? Do you require that the site or client provide a table for you to set up on?
For DJ/MC services only about 30 minutes. If video and/or lighting are required, then it could be as much as 3 hours depending on what services are required.
Do you have any extra space requirements?
Normally a standard 6 ft. banquet table is all we need. Additional space would be required for video projection, plasma monitors and large club lighting setups. Our largest
setup may also require additional electrical power known as
a "power drop".
Do you usually emcee the event or talk between songs?
Act as Master of Ceremonies YES, talk between songs is kept
to an absolute minimum. We believe in speaking only when requested or necessary.
