I went to a holiday party at a large convention center this weekend. There were 350 to 400 guests. I don't like to criticize other DJs because it's hard work but this DJ was pretty mediocre. He said that he has been DJing since 1989. Also he was using a Pioneer DDJ-SX controller. What surprised me was that most of his transitions were pretty bad and his song selection was not that good. He let some songs play all the way to the end even when people were not dancing. People only seemed to dance when he played popular line dance songs. The venue provided speakers so he did not have to bring his own speakers. It all made me wonder - how do mediocre DJ's like that get big gigs?
