Q. Will you be willing to play requests and discuss music ahead of time?
Answer: A versatile Disc Jockey is willing to listen to your suggestions, give you feedback and play from your desired song list. Monte can't know all your musical preferences, so
make sure you let him know what you like.
Q. How much time do you allow for set-up?
Answer: Punctuality is a necessity. Monte usually arrives at least one hour prior to the start time you've given him. He'll setup and be in-place before your first guest walks through the door.
Q. Do you provide a written contract?
Answer: It is extremely important to have your booking confirmed in writing. Ask for a written agreement, especially if you are paying a deposit. The standard initial payment for entertainment services is 40%.
Q. Will you be suitably dressed for our occasion?
Answer: Specify the type of apparel that Monte is expected to wear for your occasion. Formal attire or coat & tie are the most popular forms of attire. If you are having a "themed" event, make sure Monte is informed.
Remember: You Get What You Pay For!
Disc Jockey rates vary based on talent, experience, emcee ability, service, coordination, equipment needed, music knowledge, mixing ability and personality.
