Frequently Asked Questions
Reliability - A Disc Jockey has less personnel
to rely on to show up and provide an optimum performance.
Variety - The larger the guest list, the more
variety in music is needed. Live bands are usually limited to
what they can play well. DJ:Plus! Entertainment's
extensive music library can keep any crowd happy.
Dancing - People like to dance to music they are
familiar with. DJ:Plus! Entertainment plays the
original versions of your favourite music.
Continuous Music - DJ:Plus! Entertainment doesn't take a break. The music only stops playing
at times you specify (such as toasts and speeches).
Cost - Fewer personnel at your function can mean
a lower cost. DJ:Plus! Entertainment offers value for money when all aspects of the service provided are considered.
Sound - A disc jockey can tailor the sound level
much easier than a live band can. DJ:Plus! Entertainment always plays at a reduced volume level during pre-dinner
drinks and meals to allow your guests to converse comfortably;
music will typically be played somewhat louder during dancing,
but this is totally at your discretion.
Participation - A disc jockey tends to offer
more audience participation than bands. DJ:Plus! Entertainment will encourage the active participation of your
guests.
Light Show - A disc jockey includes effects
lighting. DJ:Plus! Entertainment includes an array
of high tech effects lighting at no extra cost.

Personal Service - A juke box cannot offer the
personal service that a disc jockey can. DJ:Plus! Entertainment is able to assist in the planning, guiding & directing of your event
and can cater for instant requests far better than a juke box.

Music - Juke boxes tend to have the same songs
repeated. You cannot always select the music to be included in
the juke box. Also juke boxes tend to be repeatedly reset so that
guests don't get to hear their favourite songs. DJ:Plus! Entertainment will schedule your favourite songs so they
blend perfectly, building energy and engaging your guests.

DJ:Plus! Entertainment has invested in only high grade
professional sound and lighting equipment. Now featuring the High Fidelity sound of the incomparable
BOSE L1™ and Bose L1 Compact. Inferior equipment,
used by some DJ operators in an effort to cut costs, can result in
static, inadequate bass, distortion and generally poor quality
sound.

DJ:Plus! Entertainment tailors the music played to each client's individual requirements, as well as specific requests made by you and your
guests. Through use of the client online planning facility, you may specify
musical requests and styles of music you feel is appropriate (and inappropriate) for your event. DJ:Plus! will use this information
along with professional judgement in selecting music and in honouring or declining specific requests. In the event that there are no musical preferences,
then suitable music with tremendous mass appeal will be played to ensure maximum guest participation and enjoyment.

DJ:Plus! Entertainment's music library
is quite extensive and does include most common requests. However, if
you give an advance request for music that I do not own, I will
make every effort to obtain it for your event. The further in
advance I receive the request, the more likely I'll be able to
provide it. I can also play music from any CD's supplied by
you or your guests.

No. DJ:Plus! Entertainment always schedules to arrive around three hours earlier than the agreed
start time of the event. This allows ample time to be completely
set-up, a sound check to be carried out, elimination of any
potential problems and liason with venue/event personnel prior to the time that your first guest
arrives.

This is up to you. DJ:Plus! Entertainment
can be as interactive as you would like. I pride myself on being
able to tailor the performance to suit your needs. Whilst some
audience participation is always recommended as this promotes
party fun, should all you wish is some low background music, I
can accommodate that as well. Again, it is entirely up to
you.

Yes. Every client that engages DJ:Plus! Entertainment to perform at
their event will receive a written contract that details all the particulars and terms relating to the event. If
a DJ will not give you a written contract, then you are best off
to keep looking. A contract protects both parties. Always get a
contract.

Absolutely not. DJ:Plus! Entertainment prides itself on being elegant.
Whilst referral business is always very much appreciated, I feel that the service I provide speaks for itself.
I therefore do not display any banners, logos, or signs on any of the equipment or elsewhere in the function room
nor place any business cards on the dinner tables. Should any of your guests wish a business card for future reference,
one will be discreetly provided to them on their request.

One of the advantages about booking DJ:Plus! Entertainment, is
that you deal directly with me from your initial enquiry right through to the conclusion of the performance at your event.
For clients who book DJ:Plus! Entertainment, that's great! - as they receive the utmost personalised service, attention to
detail and so much more than just great music. For those that wish to engage my services for a date that is already booked,
if you wish, I may be able to assist by providing a referral to a select group of professional DJ operators that I have confidence
in, and know, will have your best interests at heart.
