Why Strip Clubs Need DJs
no offense to the advisor, but I was a Club DJ for years, and the one thing I found that kept problems to the minimum, was when the club I worked for paid the DJ and had a set fee for each dancer that was a part of their preset tipout fee. Don't get me wrong there were some clubs that left the DJ to finding his or her own money but those were typically the smaller clubs with smaller budgets. I worked from some of the worst clubs to some of the best over the years, and some people always had an opinion why DJs should or should not be a part of the club. Pros: No Dead Air- nothing lets a shift go from a good vibant energy that has everyone in a fun mood then that awful dreaded silence save the conversations in between girls. A Fluid Transition- girls have a lot going on as they try to make their money, and having someone not dealing with management aspects to remind them they are going on stage for the next song helps everyone out. Ever Changing Specials- some clubs run the same thing day in and day out, and are find with that. The clubs that have evolved over time however, have paid attention to what the clientel has as its wants and needs. a jukebox cant do that. Another set of eyes- Some clubs on smaller budgets just are safer when another set of eyes can aid the manager in situations, as most DJ booths are in a position to see the entire club. The Show must go on! - A DJ keeps the flow moving forward in case the manager has to deal with an emergency, that without a DJ would have everything just stop in its tracks. Cons- Dancer interaction- Some cannot keep it as business. yes this is a major no no, and it should cost you your job Abuse of anything- drugs alcohol etc can be an issue without proper guides in place Poor Guest interaction- the DJ may just be awful with his interaction skills. yes this is the damn why doesn't he shut up category, for going way overboard, to what the hell does he even say when he does talk category. A skilled DJ should be able to mix songs, make his mandated announcements in a clear voice, and move the whole show along from the -10 second mark of the song end to the +15 second mark of the next song beginning. Yes that's 25 seconds and its plenty of time to do everything and keep the energy high without skipping a beat. Song length - this is a dispute in small and large venues if there I not a rule set from the opening day. They range from 3-4 minutes depending on what state or city, I have worked both, and even some who don't care how long a song is. 3-4 is the norm now for a good reason. there is no such thing as a long song special, and how some girls really don't perform well on stage knows she is on a3 song set for at max 12 minutes before she gets back to making her money the way she does best. To the Advisor, your advice seems to be coming from a outside or customer standpoint that really doesn't understand how the behind the scenes actually runs in a club. This isn't to offend, but having a DJ who takes his work serious, is worth well more then what he actually makes in the long run and you don't have to keep paying that expensive commercial sound editor every week when a new song hits. My two cents.
