I’d suggest putting “events” instead of “dances or parties” its not only more professional but its less specific. Advertise your self as a DJ first and not a light and sound tech if thats what you want to get gigs for. I think bands would be more inclined to hire sound and lighting techs who are licensed so I’m unsure of the specific need there.
Well i don’t mean for real big bands, more so the small bands who don’t have a good mixer, and sound and may not have lights at all. If i had all my own equipment for it i could make some easy money, especially if i only did sound for them. Would “special events” be the same as just “events”?
