Q. "How many years have you been in business?"
A. I have been performing for/in clubs, bars, skating rinks, schools, businesses, birthday parties, reunions, school dances, and weddings since 1995.

Q. “What is a typical budget for Disc Jockey services?”
A. Entertainment typically represents 10% - 15% of the total event budget. Major factors affecting price include a disc jockey's popularity, demand, level of professional experience,  and how long they will play at your event.

Q. “What is the price to hire a professional DJ?”
A. It depends on how many hours, type of event, venue,  lighting needs, time of year, etc.  Please contact me directly for more info.
 
Q. "Can't anyone put on a CD and call themselves a DJ?"
A. Yes, anyone can put on a song or two or three and people will dance. The skill is to do that for four to five hours at a time,  knowing what songs in different genres will work for that particular crowd. I read each crowd and have the musical knowledge to make a party the absolute best it can be. A professional DJ does not just play music, he is an Entertainer/MC/Plannner that keeps the flow of the party/reception running smooth and the events of the evening in  in order.

Q. "Can we meet with or talk to the DJ in advance?"
A. Of course!  Just let me know and we can arrange a meeting. I treat your event as if it was my own and want to make sure I have a full understanding of your event needs, outline, info, etc.

Q. "What type of equipment do you use?"
A. I use the highest quality equipment available (Pioneer, Denon, Electro Voice, QSC, Shure). You will never see milk crates, cardboard boxes, rusted beat up equipment,  or home stereo speakers at one of my events. 

Q. "What time will you arrive?"
A. I like to arrive as early as possible to make certain the equipment is set up in the right place and to conduct a sound check.  At the very least, 30 minutes prior to the guests arriving.

Q. "We've decided to hire MUSIC UNLIMITED. What happens now?"
A.  We will set up an appointment for you to come by my office to go over and sign a contract. If you are out of town, I can email or mail the contract to you.
 
Q. "What are your payment terms?" 
 A. I accept Cash and Checks.

Q. "What about signing a contract?”
A. I give all clients a copy of my entertainment contract signed by both parties. A Disc Jockey service that has no contract agreement may lead to serious problems in the future and at your event. Never hire a company without a contract!

Q. "How much of deposit do you need to hold my event date?”
A. The deposit is $100 and the remaining balance is due two days prior to your event.

Q. "Do you smoke, drink alcohol, or take breaks at my event?”
A. No to all the above!
Q. "Will you allow music requests for my guests?”
A. Requests are welcome. If a song seems inappropriate, I will explain the reason why it cannot be played.  If you don't want requests please tell your guests and me before the event.

Q. "What types of music do you have?”
A. I have a very large music collection with over 45,000 songs in all genres! 
 

Q. "What if my questions are not answered on this page?"
A. Please contact me directly via e-mail or phone and I'll  try to answer any questions you have.

Q. “Do you play dinner and cocktail music as well?”
A.  Yes. I have everything from soft instrumental to light jazz and so on.  I would also be happy to play your favorite music.

Q. “Can you provide music for a wedding ceremony?”
A. Yes.

Q. “We're just looking for the cheapest price. What is the cheapest you will DJ for?”
A. My prices are very competitive, but if you are shopping for a price instead of a Professional DJ, you will probably realize too late that "you get what you pay for" when it comes to a DJ service.  Some DJ's offer dirt cheap prices to gain business.  You would be surprised at how many people advertise as a DJ service,  equipped with a terrible non-professional sound system and very little DJ/MC experience. Remember that a terrible DJ could completely ruin your event and all your careful time and planning could go to waste.

Q. “What do you charge for travel and setup?”
A. I don't charge anything for travel if your event is within 25 miles of the Fayetteville Regional Airport. I charge an additional $100 if your event is between 26-60 miles away from Fayetteville Regional Airport. If your event is more than 60 miles than the Fayetteville Regional Airport, the travel fee would have to be discussed.  If I have to be set-up 2 hours prior to the event, the fee is $100.  If the event is above ground level and there is no elevetor access, there is a $50 fee to have the equipment carried up the stairs.

Q. “What is your policy on tipping?”
A. I must be honest.... I love it! It's an excellent way to thank a DJ who goes above and beyond, to make your party special (anything from $50 to $100 is appropriate). I don't put out a "tip jar," because it's tacky and I don't accept tips from your guests to play specific songs because those songs may not be appropriate for your party. Tipping your DJ, (if you choose) is your responsibility. It's just more professional that way in my opinion.
 
Q. Are all DJ's the same?
A. No!  Radio DJ's and club DJ's are great, but most of the time are not trained nor have the experience to DJ a wedding reception, etc.  At mobile events such as a party or wedding, you must have the experience and knowledge of  how to entertain that specific crowd, keeping everyone involved, the time outline followed,  and the event flowing smoothly. It is amazing at how many "DJ's" will not even talk on a mic?  Thre is a big difference between a DJ and a DJ Entertainer!
