So for the under 21/over 18 crowd here, a night out involves a hookah bar usually. About a month ago I purchased my S2. I started calling around to see if any clubs or bars were looking for DJ's. Obviously I wasnt ready to DJ yet, I was just curious on how hard it was going to be to get my foot in the door.
Back to the hookah bar. I called one of these places and talked to the owner. Turns out he was looking for someone right then. I explained that I wasn't good enough to do a live set just yet and he told me to call back when I was. He just called me back three days ago, asked if I would be interested in playing this weekend. And gave me the opportunity to go by tonight and spin and get a feel for the place.
Here's the question. After a month I feel I am obviously not ready for this...but I am considering it for a few reasons. I've read that you should take any chance you can get to DJ esp. when first starting out. Another thing that would be good is the information/education I would get from this first gig.
But what are your guys' thoughts? The place plays mostly rap/hip-hop. I can get away with some house and a moderate amount of dubstep. In all honestly, a "packed" house at this joint might be 10-15 people tonight. And maybe 25-35 on the weekends.
Just looking for input.
