Right folks, going today to do a gig in the football club in Aberystwyth and let's iron out a couple of things here which are all sort of relevant. A lot of people have always said why don't you do more gig logs? Well I do quite a few gigs but not as many as I used to and the irony is the reason being is because I don't really have time enough now to promote myself as a mobile DJ because I'm doing all this web work. So, it's catch 22 for me really. But anyway, alright, what can I talk about today? Well first of all, gear. Let's say you've got 10 lights and every time you go to your function you take 10 lights, you set your 10 lights up. Well, why don't you try this? Go to your function, take your 10 lights but set up 8 of them or 7. See what it's like. Change it. Move them around a little bit. Don't set them up in the same place all the time because

What basically happens then is it just makes it different for you. Not necessarily for the crowd, because you could be playing to a different crowd every single night, but it just makes it slightly more different. What else can I talk about? Again, I suppose with the likes of PA systems as well. I've always said it's... Well, no, I... No, anyway. All right, I'll say now. If you can logically afford it, that's the main thing. It's always a good idea to have two sound systems, a bigger and a smaller one, because there's no point... Thank you for watching. Today I've got the SPM-1000, the DVJs and I'm going to have a bit of a mess around and it should be quite fun. They've requested logically some modern music but also they want the classics because you'll get the mumsies and dadsies there as well so it should be quite interesting. Anyway, pause the camera, beautiful sunny day for a change. Thank you. Okay here we go, here's the setup. Got two of the Cam Vortex 15s. I like using two of those together. It does actually knock out one hell of a good sound.
Here's that dodgy mixer in the middle. Same over there, and I've got these Laser X Moves there as well. And I've taped them down so they're not going anywhere. And then I've got a screen there you can't see much at the moment because there are about 500 lights on it. So there you go. I've got an up-lighter there as well so if I'm not playing any videos, the screen or the up-light will reflect off the Here you go guys, another gig log for you and this time I mainly used the SVM and I set the DVJs. Now the reason, I'm just going to put the light off for a second because I think that's a police car coming along, oh dear, here's it, there's a rather large taxi, alright there you go. But anyway, the reason you didn't get much footage is because with each time, so it's a bit like your normal 7 inch single, you haven't got a
Thanks for watching, and I'll see you next time. And of course, you know, put the Macarena on and they're all gawping at it. It's wonderful. Anyway, great night, a wonderful family, good bit of fun, and as ever, practice and enjoy. Thank you.
