Frequently Asked Questions
- Do you take breaks? No. Our DJ staff will
perform continuously throughout the night. From our scheduled start
time until your party is over, the music will be playing (unless of
course you request a break for some other reason).
- Can we choose the
music to be played at our event? Our services are based solely upon
what you want them to be. We have learned that keeping your crowd
alive depends on a lot of things including the type of music, type
of mix, DJ personality, atmosphere, etc…but its not just the music.
Taking the time to submit us a list of of music you and your guests
like will greatly increase your chances of a successful event and
also allow your DJ to customize the music at your event.
- Can we have
a "do not play" list? Yes. This may be just as important to you and
your event. You may also create a do not play list from our song
search page and send it to us in the same manner.
- What if we want a
song that you don't have? Our music collection spans thousands of
songs from several decades. Often a client will want a song that is
somewhat obscure and we may not have it. If this is the case there
are two options: you may either supply us with the CD before the
event so that we may check it for scratches, or (if you do not own a
legal copy) we will obtain that song before your event. Just give us
advance notice if we need to find a song. If you give us a CD we
will return it to you at the end of the night.
- How loud do you play
the music? One of the greatest concerns of bands and DJs is that the
music is too loud. This will not be the case with our services.
During your cocktail and dinner hours we will play soft and relaxing
background music. The sound will be as evenly dispersed throughout
the hall as possible. We will make sure that your guests can hear
both themselves talking and the background music. When it comes time
for dance music we will adjust accordingly. Speakers may be
repositioned. Our staff will adjust the equalization of the music in
order to get the right sound for the specific room. We will focus
the music in the dance floor area. This means that while the volume
is loud enough to dance to on the floor, the rest of the room will
be able to continue to hear themselves socialize.
- Do you have backup
equipment? Our DJs will have equipment available to ensure the music
keeps going. Our equipment and staff are very dependable. If
something does fail, it can be easily fixed or switched without you
and your guests even knowing.
- Do you provide a light show? Our light
shows are additional options available to you. Your DJ will help you
select a lightshow appropriate to your event. It may be a simple,
elegant show or a concert-like show complete with Intelligent
lighting. The ultimate decision is up to you.
- How interactive are
your DJs? This is another great concern of all customers. The answer
is simple: our DJs are as interactive as you want them to be. They
can be background figures that keep the attention on the bridal
party, completely outgoing, or any level that you desire. We are
professional entertainers and can handle your requests without a
problem. However, you will never hear your DJ yelling or singing
into the microphone. We still maintain a degree of professionalism
no matter how outgoing you want us to be. We will use our skills
professionally and never steal the spotlight.
- How experienced are
your entertainers? All of our entertainers are hand selected and
trained. We have different levels of experience available. Our DJs
have been trained formally by DJ Eric G. They have also served as
assistants to Eric G in some cases and received on the job training.
Our DJ staff currently consists of five of the most talented Disc
Jockeys in New England. If you require nothing but the best, then
Upper Valley DJ is the right choice for you. We take pride in
providing quality service to all of our customers.
- Are you insured?
Most quality banquet facilities require entertainment companies to
be fully insured. You and your guests are protected by our service.
This gives you the security of knowing that you, your friends, your
family and the facility are taken care of by a professional company
that cares enough to be prepared.
- Does the DJ expect
tipping/gratuity? While it is common to tip the entertainment
industry, it is not mandatory. Our staff is paid from your fees.
However, if your DJ surpasses your expectations and you wish to tip,
a tip would be considered extremely generous and taken as a great
compliment.
