Q:
|
I really want my guests to
have a memorable time. Do you do anything to get my guests up and
dancing?

|
Arthur sings in the style of
Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin, Dean Martin, Louie Prima and others
singing songs like: “New York, New York”; “Mack the Knife”;
“That’s Amor”; “Just a Gigolo” and many, many more, while
strolling through the tables getting guests to join in for the
choruses. He usually does this between courses during dinner.
It’s really a lot of fun and everyone gets into it! Once the
dance floor is open to all guests, he no longer sings, except for
the occasional slow song such as “After the Lovin’”; “The Summer
Wind”; “Unforgettable”; etc.
|
|
|

|
Q:
|
I've been to weddings or events and have seen disc
jockey set-ups
that were just a mess with wires all over the place. How do
you set up your equipment?
|
A:
|
Arthur's disc jockey equipment is always set up neatly and will remain
that way throughout the event.
|
|
|
|
|
Q:
|
What
sort of music do you play?
|
|
Arthur’s
library covers all ages and all styles: Top 40, R&B, Country
Western, Jazz, Rock ‘n’ Roll, 50’s & 60’s, Waltzes, Polkas, Big
Band, Ballroom, Party Dances, Line Dances, and much more. He
is continuously adding to his library and takes it all with him to
every function.
|
|
|
|
Q:
|
Do you download music from the web?
|
A:
|
Absolutely not! Besides being unethical, it is also
illegal. Arthur buys all the music he plays. If he doesn't
have it, he will buy it (with enough notice).
|
|
|
Q:
|
Do you
take music requests from guests?
|
A:
|
Arthur
will be more than happy to take requests from your guests.
However, he will not play any song that is inappropriate or
vulgar. The music has all been thought out in advance and is
tailored and customized to your personality and tastes. Most of
the time it’s better to give him a "do not play list" for he can
usually read the crowd pretty well and know through experience
what will keep them dancing.
|
|
|
Q:
|
Do you
have backup equipment in case of an emergency?
|
A:
|
Yes,
Arthur has extra amplifiers, extra CD players, extra cables and
clips, etc. His disc jockey equipment has never failed him, but a
professional is always prepared!
|
|
|
Q:
|
Will you
put banners up at the reception site?
|
A:
|
Arthur
does not and will not advertise at your event. He doesn’t use
banners or flash his name on the walls or dance floor. His
disc jockey
equipment is not screen printed with his name or logo. He does
carry business cards and, if asked, would hand one out after the
event.
|
|
|
Q:
|
Do I
need to serve you a meal at my wedding?
|
A:
|
Some
disc jockey’s do require a meal. However, Arthur does not. In most cases
this could save you $40 to $200. Arthur doesn’t drink, smoke,
sit, and doesn’t take breaks. He is professional at all times.
|
|
|
Q:
|
Do you
have insurance?
|
A:
|
Arthur
carries a one million dollar liability insurance policy which
covers you and your guests at any function. Most venues require an
insurance policy before the day of the event.
|
|
|
Q:
|
What
time will you set up your equipment?
|
A:
|
You can
rest assured that Arthur will be completely set up one full hour
before your event begins, dressed in a complete tuxedo.
|
|
|
Q:
|
Do you
sub contract?
|
A:
|
Arthur
will not sub contract out your party to anyone else. A lot of
companies over book and then sell the bookings to other local
Massachusetts disc
jockeys.
Arthur assures you that if you allow him to be a part of your
celebration, he will be there ready to entertain. He only books
one affair in a day so he won’t be too tired at your event or too
anxious to leave to do another.
|
|
|
Q:
|
How far
will you travel?
|
A:
|
Arthur
travels within reason to most Massachusetts or New England
destinations. Extra charges would apply if the event was
a certain distance or if it was an overnight stay.
