don't ever do house parties then. I set ground rules, let the pretty girls go "wikki wikki" every now and then, and just take it with grace. As long as they don't bring drinks around my stuff, the worst that can happen is a stopped track or some messed up EQ's, nothing major. Most people (read - not the stupid drunk girls) will know enough not to touch your stuff but some will. You have to take it in stride if you are at a house party. If someone really violates my space I have a friend quietly remove them from the DJ "booth" or wherever I am set up. It's not as big of a deal as people make it out to be, just be aware of your surroundings. When people make requests, smile and nod, say "I'll look for the track" and just keep on spinning. They'll get it after a minute or two. And eventually I will put their request on if I do have it.
I don't know. I found it absolutely amazing one time watching some of the promoters and crew at one of the nights I frequent messing about with Dieselboy. When he was turned around looking through his CD wallet, they messed with his EQ's and such.
He turned right around and immediately put them exactly back where he had them without a second thought.
That was impressive to me at least.

House parties are different, that's not really stressful since most of the time people are too drunk to really care anyway if something sounds wrong. I'd be more worried about my equipment getting soaked in beer

There is no greater sign of arrested development then when a girl asks you to play something and when you tell her you don't have it she gives you a powty face. You are not an infant, you are wasted
Dude I've seen a kid hop over the booth and start scratching the deck, vinyl technics........ on straight records. It was Justin longs set in Chicago at Smartbar......obviously he was thrown out immediately but still people are so retarded. Imagine he broke your needle or gouged up your record.....

I got told on Saturday by a 16 year old that I was going to be sued because my music didn't have enough swearing in it. I told her if she could get the case to go to court I'd gladly pay what ever she was going to sue me for.
