How'd you get into DJing?

DJ Blues:

I was basically bred into it. I lived around Good Music &
DJ's my entire Life. SummerTime in Philly is
basically BLOCK PARTY Central, & I was front & center to witness some
of the Greatest DJ's in the world coming up (DJ Jazzy Jeff, Cash Money, DJ Mizz, Corey DST, ButterBall,
Tat Money, Too Tuff, ... The list can truly go ON) In case you didn't
know, Philly is Basically the HOME OF THE GREATEST DJ's !!! (No disrespect to
any other city... But WE GETS BIZZY!!!)

party; do you do anything special to prepare for a party?

where to go then.

How do you manage the multiple
requests that come at you during a party?

You try to fit in as many as you can, But 90% of the time that
request is in my mental playlist anyway... They just have to be patient.

Line Dance Connection:
|
What would you say to people who leave
a party upset because they didn’t hear the one song they wanted to hear?

This is really just an issue @ Line Dance events (Very Tough
Crowd).
But as I look @ there shirt drenched in sweat from everything
else they danced too, I just smirk & say "My Bad".
