Hi, just had my first gig.

Hi Angel, welcome to the forums. Great story. If you just started I’d hold off on buying the scratching course. Personally I believe that unless you decide to go the full scratching DJ road, it is something you’ll use only a few times a night, like some FX.

You have so many other things to learn, practice and master, not in the least music selection which you can only learn playing out, that I wouldn’t worry about spending time on learning to scratch yet.
