Short Christmas Gig Log from a Hotel in Telford UK

0:00 I'm in the Romano Hotel in Talford

Right, so tonight, a bit of a gig log for you. I'm in the Romano Hotel in Talford. It's a dinner party, dinner dance, for about 70 people. We've got different tables, we've got 20 on here, we've got a couple of 10s, 4 and... 71, roughly. OK, so, the thing is with the dinner dance is people don't know people, OK? So you've got different groups, so... It's up to the DJ really to get them motivated and get people talking with, you know, some guests, with other guests and so on. So I'll do my best. Anyway, kit-wise nearly set up. The cam LED party bar. I have this nice little laser. I use this quite a bit from Laser World. It's the Garden Star GS400 RGBW and I've got that against the ceiling. So as people walk in, nice little sort of effect. QSC K8s and the KS212C Cardio Oil Sub. So I've got two of those and the K8s. I've got the XDJ-RX2. Also got the Cam mics and I have used these in a video. This is the KWM1932.

Two mics and they're on set channels so you can't change your channels but there's no bands or anything like that on today so I haven't got any problem with interference. If I did, there's two mics I have here. Got this on the ground. This is the Cam Derby 9. Just sort of position that on the ground there just to give a little effect along the floor but of course we'll get more of an effect later on. When the lights are down, also got the cam LED derby effects bar. Got to set that up. And what else have we got? Got a couple of Chauvet lights which are battery powered. I'll just use as washers for along the side of the wall. And I have underneath here, if you take a look, I'll show you. Quite a nice effect. We use this quite a bit.

2:21 It's the Nova Pro, sorry, Gobo Sphere

It's like the opposite to a, just unplugged it, it's opposite to a mirror ball. It's the Nova Pro, sorry, Gobo Sphere. There you go. I'm going to try and plug that back in now as we speak. There we go. Jobs are good. Also got an extra laptop just in case. Headphones, laptop there, hard drive and I've got my shirt for later. Another light there just in case, back up. I've also got another speaker. I've got the K12 in the back of the van just in case. No actually that's here somewhere. Yeah, got it here. So there you go. So that is the setup for this evening and what I've tried to do is keep it sort of small, compact and neat. Okay, thank you for watching, practice and enjoy.
