You play what you play. Not everyone will like it and you have to let people know what style(s) you play. If you play house, would you even want a frat party gig if they say they want top 40? I wouldn't.
I've been a hobby DJ for ten years now. I haven't played out much but the few times I did I made sure the people that wanted me knew the styles I played. If they were fine with it, great. If not, I'm not changing what I do for some gig. Don't like it? Don't ask me to play.
