Doctors make the worst patients, and DJ's make the worst audiences (except me, I normally buy the DJ a drink - laced/spiked with something...naturally!)
So, when you're attending a Disco in your "Clark Kent" mode, rather than doing the gig yourself, what have you seen/heard that made you cringe?
A wedding that I attended as a guest a year ago...had a DJ whose set up was awfully presented...wires everywhere, nothing hidden from view..and his mic gaffs were truely unprofessional.
At the end of the night, he announced "Good luck to Sharon and Steve".....(Sharon has actually married someone called Brian...) ....to cover his mistake, the DJ quickly said, and may they have many children.
"Brians had THE op" yelled nearly all of the room...
"uurmmm....".

A fellow DJ was seting up his gear, and so on - and split his trousers as he squatted down to tape leads to the floor!
After a good 10 mins of laughter - we realised the split was too big to continue the night. So he drove nearly 20 miles back to his home to change - as he was already in his 'evening' atire!!!!
He couln't work in his jeans because they were a bit dirty, and had a split in them too!!!!

This is another good reason to carry safety pins (from the current "Spares" topic, running elsewhere on the forum).
Mind you, I wouldn't move around much if I had a couple of safety pins in that area...just in case they dont live upto the first part of their name, only the second.
