    Default 1st Gig/House Party advice

    Playing out for the first time tomorrow night at my brothers house party. I have practiced for 4 months everyday for at least an hour. Should be about 100 people (keg, jungle juice). My friend is starting the night out at 9-11, I take over the rest of the night. I plan on playing a majority of house music with a a select Dubstep, Rap and RnB tracks. Is there any advice my fellow DJTT members could give me? Any advice is welcomed!!!

    I would say try to read the crowd, if you freind has them dancing to lets say "Dance (ass) - Big sean ) and you throw some like seedish house mafia, might ruin the crowd.
    I know that from experience
    be yourself
    don't stare at your screen
    if you mess up , the crowd won't notice unless you make it obvoius and like start freezing up.

    TBH its a house party; most people are there to see there friends. play drinking games.
    They probably wont be caring too much about the music.
    Id say ignore the one girl that keeps coming up to you and asking you to play Bangarang, Levels or Turbulence.
    Have a shot to loosen up then hit it hard; and llook like your having a good time!
