Right one for the Dj's: You all must have played at parties/clubs where the set-up has been terrible, crap monitors, shite decks etc. But whats the worst conditions you've ever had to play in?
Mine would have to be this free party near Cheltenham a couple of weeks ago where a mate and I were playing b2b. For a start, the decks were wank!!! They were nasty little Gemini's that were about 15 years old (although to be fair, they held time ok), and covering the decks/mixer etc. was a sheet of tarporlin (sorry bout the spelling!) that was leaking everywhere!!! The worst thing about it tho, was that the whole set-up was running of this generator (obviously, as it was a free party!), but the generator was slowly running out of petrol (this was 5/6 am) which meant the decks kept slowing down every 5 minutes. Luckily it didnt do it during any of my mixes, but my mate got caught out a couple of times!!!!
