Most ridiculous comment/request ever made to you while djing?

Kool DJ Sheak One 8:38 PM - 15 September, 2006
I have had the most amazingly ridiculous comments made to me almost on a weekly basis,Like: "Do you have anything funky?"
(while im playing James Brown). Or "Do you have something I can dance to?"(while everyone is dancing). Or the classic "Do have any Hip-Hop?(while your playing Jay-Z etc.)
Just when I think I have heard it all, some genius comes at me with some crazy statements.
And now with serato, I get the two guys: the know it all, who says"this guy has every song ever recorded on his computer!"
And the other guy who cant handle the concept of serato and asks questions like"is that like an ipod player?"
Anybody else have some classic drunk people phrases?

Can you play (insert song here that doesn't go with whatever it is you're currently playing)? I'm about to leave and I want to hear it before we go.

Hows about you stay at the damn party like everyone else and you MIGHT get to hear your song if you leave me the hell alone!?

"Play that NEW song about my grills!" (this was like 2 weeks ago)

"Play Some Hip-Hop!" (while ATCQ - Scenario is playing)..

"Play The 50 CENT BIRTHDAY SONG" (This is like a weekly occurence)

I gotta start writing this ish down.

I was Djing a house party about a month ago. Was spinning mostly underground hip hop/ golden era ish.. there were a lot of cats breaking, and they were damn good. Every five minutes the same 3 girls would walk right through the middle of the circle, come up to me, and ask me to play Sexyback! the first two times I told them I would play that stuff later. after they asked 6 times in a half hour ....I never played it! Something about that song bugs me ever since!

At a Harvard Party I DJ'd:

Dude:
"Did you know most people here are european"
Me:
"Nah, whats that supposed to mean?"
Dude:
"We like Techno, thats what it means"
Me:
"I wasnt hired to play techno, I was hired to play hip hop and throw in some 80's along the way"
Dude:
"but we all want tachno, this hip hop shit sucks"
Me:
"You paying me?"
Dude:
"No"
Me:
"ok, so why dont you shut up and go fuck your self" (mind you the dude was giving me the nasty attitude)

it worked so thats all that counts, I think he left, which is all the better.

Last night I got "can you play that new song by little joc"

and also last night some white guy comes up requesting bay area shit, he goes do you have any mac dre, I said "no", do you have any keek da sneek? I said "no". So then I throw on corey harts sunglasses at night to make him get half way happy until he realized it wasnt what he thought it was :)

Best one is when girl comes request song, you play the song into the mix. 5 min later , Hey did you play my song yet?

they go smoke and mingle and dont even listen.

Im DJing @ a Bar in a college area and some old guy, shit at least 60, comes up to the booth and asks for Gap Band -Burn Rubber on Me, Im like "No sorry i dont have that, I play Top 40, Hip Hop, R&B, all the newer stuff"
He fuckin pops a boner and goes off telling me " No You fucking have that song i know it... now play it, " Now he's really angry and his one eye is about to pop out. Im like "holy shit, who the hell are you guy" He was escorted out, last I ever saw him there.
