Maybe people don't come on here to defend what they allow being played at there venues, because they are only intrested in giving the punters an enjoyable night out..
if you are a promoter of a small local do, you've had to pay for the venue out of your own pocket.. wondering if the number in the doors will cover that and the dj's.. you know you've already lost the money of the flyers..
all your worrying about is that the dj has a full floor and people will come back and support the venue..
as a promoter thats what you want..
I don't think its the promoters responsibility but the responsibility of the dj to play originals..
Now when a promoter books a dj.. do they
A/ hear them out and see how busy the floor is and think, blimey he could do the business at my do.. I'll wait till he's finished and catch up with him..
or
B/ does he go up and look through the dj's records to see if they are all originals ...
probably A...
no its not the promoter its the dj.. the person who is giving all the listern to what i've got ... listern to what i'm playing..
The promoter is just trying to give the punters an enjoyable night..
only what i think
