Dumbass: "When are you gonna play something good?"
Me: (thinking, "Wow, well now I'm motivated to do something for you, a$$hole.") (but saying "What should we play that you think everybody here would like?"
Dumbass: "Duh, I dont know, just something good."
Me: "No no, I need an artist and a title." What can I play for the crowd
that everyone will enjoy as much as you?"
Dumbass: "Uhhhh... I cant think of anything... just play something..."
Me: "So give me a genre, what kind of song would we all like to hear?" (cuz, obviously, youre an expert)
Dumbass: "ooooh... um? play... S&ck My **** Motha****** B**** by Babydaddy & tha Felons"
Me: "I dont think the bride's grandma will like that."
Dumbass: "Oh yeah."
Me: "Try again."
Dumbass: "How bout Freebird?"
Me: "um, o... k... so whats your name?"
Dumbass: "huh?"
Me: "name."
Dumbass: "Skeeter"
Me: (on mic) "Ok, everyone Skeeter says you all want to hear Freebird."
Crowd: "Booooooooooo!"
Dumbass: "Oh, ok, just play whatever you think will work."
Me: "Thats why Im the DJ." (I dont come to McDonalds and tell you how to make fries.)

Dont come to me saying, "Play something good," like a douchebag. Ask for a song, and I'll do it--- but be prepared to put your name on it.

ok, that story was free. Back to the point. If you shout crap at the players, dont cry about their lack of "loyalty" when they sign with another team, and then come back and kick our a$$. Dont get mad when they say, well this is business. Yep.

There's a reason the Manning kids didnt want to play in New Orleans. Archie saw the way some of us treated Hebert--- a local guy who bled black and gold, who shed blood on the field, but was occasionally--- human. I was disappointed in some of the stuff I heard from the stands. Honestly, if it were me, I would have done a stronger gesture than "airplane arms." (In reality, he was directing that at Saints management, not us.) Nor do I blame Michael Vick for flipping off the fans who shouted stuff at him.

Dont misunderstand me. We are the greatest fans in Football. Collectively, we are the greatest fans in all of Sports. The majority of the Dome is great people, just like most of my crowd rocks, as do 98% of my brides--- who are complete DOLLS.

Its just that some of us insist on acting like monkeys. That is why there will always be a fence between us and them. Thats why you cant come in my booth.
You are a DJ? Well you get my praise and support brother, because SO AM I. Holy crap. I don't do weddings though. I work for Deja Vu San Francisco. And I have had that conversation, with the dumba$$, a thousand times. I almost got into a fight at work last friday night, because an eminem reject came up complaining that I wasn't playing enough "hip hop". Even though, I had been playing rap about 90% of the night, that still wasn't enough. The this 19 year old kid, proceeded to tell me, how bad I "suck", even though I've been doing this job since 1995.

This is not the first time I've had an incident like this, not even the twentieth! And that's not counting my band experiences. I've been in entertainment all my working life, so booing, objects thrown, curse words, name calling, I've had it all thrown my way. And you are right, they can't complain when these players have no loyalty. It's all part of the business side of things. But like I said, I can't complain either. These monkeys have paid my bills for the past 15 years!

What's popular is not always right, and what's right is not always popular.....
