Why must you switch up the song every 30 seconds or less? Can’t you see the crowd dancing like nobody is watching? Would it kill you to let a song play a bit longer? There were several different groups of people who would get in the groove then be disappointed to hear another song mixed in and switched before the last one could even get to the best parts. Finally I decided I’d come up to the front to see if I could request a song. I wrote it in my note pad and showed my phone to you. That’s when you shook your head in disgust and looked away. Maybe instead of assuming I wanted your number or that I was trying to give you mine, you could have at least read what it said. What a let down. I wouldn’t have even bothered trying if you would let the freaking songs play at least half way. It’s hard to jam when we only have 1/10 of the beats to every song. You and the crowd would actually benefit if you tried a little harder to please. —Just Sayin

And of course (for what it may be worth) you and maybe some of your friends mentioned this, or plan to write to, a manager or owner etc. to let them know your views on the music /dance ‘system’ at their club and that you and others may go elsewhere. And do not forget to tell them how impressed you were the friendliness of their DJ. Or will you just eventually continue to go there, spend money there etc. As usual – money talks so a few words to management may help, but complaining directly to a DJ who likely may not read this does not do much for you, aside from a quick venting. Meanwhile we are now in a short attention span world and many people probably could not deal with more than 30 seconds of a given song now, as opposed to the 70s where a 10 minute dance song was a gift from the gods. 🙂
Complaining to the management of a dance bar in HRM about a DJ/Bouncer/Bartender?! Good luck with that.
Whatever, just be thankful that you didn’t turn out to be a talentless hack like a DJ.
