wagner Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 The guy that was going to do the Car show on the 23rd backed out on me due to a family thing. I now need a DJ for this event and was looking to see if a member of CR can help out. The only issue is due to the Dragway 42 Rental coming up it would be a volunteer thing. I will however cover your food for the day out of my own pocket for helping out. PM me if you would like to help out. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthetic_Influx Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 I've got a guy for that. Let me check and see if he's available and I'll shoot you a PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Have you tried contacting the local radio stations to come set up their equipment and do a live show. Take this mainstream. Should bring out a larger crowd and they sometimes bring free stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT I am also working on getting some TV coverage for this as well so we shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Radio stations used to come out for free, hell they almost were willing to pay you to get the exposure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I was talking to the wrong person at the station. I will do some more digging unless you would like to give me a hand on this? BTW does anybody have some contats at Jegs? I want to see if they might do some door prizes. My hookup at Summit is gone so I can't get my free stuff from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i know 107.5 does things like this with the bikers but im not sure if everyone likes the hip hop music? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 What kind of music are we thinking? Is this just a cr event? How big is the show? Associated with any other event, charity, club, group, is this for the sonic opening or just a car show for the sake of a car show? How much room do they have to set-up? How much time will they have to stay there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open to anybody No idea how big we shall see lol No other association just us putting this on Car show/cruise in just to have one We have a good chunk of the Giant Eagle Parking lot They can stay as long as they want I contacted 99.7 again to see what they say. I think Rock would be teh best bet for this I don't think Hip Hop will go over well with the old timers LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Country or rock will most likely be well perceived vs. hip hop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well right now I am waiting on 99.7 to get back with me on the radio thing. I would still like to have a stand alone DJ set up as well. I mean if somebody even has the equipment I will do it I just don't have a PA or anything like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V8 Beast Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Country or rock will most likely be well perceived vs. hip hop. I vote no to that. I would rather hear pop or oldies... A good DJ plays the top 100 and mixes in a few songs that everyone knows and loves. This way its not one type of music. To be honest if I had to hear country all day I would leave.. I know some of you would feel the same about hip hip. The guy at Advance last year played oldies the entire time and annoyed the heck out of us.

My option 1 fell through and this is the last thing that needs done. If I can't find somebody that can donate their time and do it for free does anybody have a stereo? Need something good sized and any help on this would make my life MUCH better right now lol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
