    Most appreciative for all the feedback. I’ve yet to acquire the funds to make some purchases, but at least I have direction now.

    Valid point. I’m currently working for a mobile DJ company but would eventually like to be doing it on my own and trying to get into a club setting. Preferably in the electronic/industrial/EBM or alternative/indie/rock and–perhaps with the proper notoriety–metal.

    The company I work for is investing in controllers for VirtualDJ, but I have yet to work with it.

    I would love to play a massive variety, but you’re probably right. Hell, if I could get a large crowd of chicks headbanging together to some Cannibal Corpse or Nile, that would be amazing. Thanks for the feedback.

    Last question, how does one make a proposition of something like this to the bar owner?

    Easiest way I’ve found is by listening to online radio stations while I work my beige job. The great part about these companies is they often stay on top of what’s new or will play some stuff that you may have not heard before. I prefer http://www.slacker.com, personally.

    If it’s a lively cocktail hour kind of thing, Cee-Lo Green and Travie McCoy are good calls.

    Top 40-ish stuff, singer/songwriter stuff (Colbie Caliat, Jason Mraz, John Mayer, Jack Johnson etc) and some super laid back electronic stuff like Supreme Beings of Leisure would be solid.

    I was also curious if anyone had any tips for putting together a pitch for the idea. I’ve reached out to a local dive bar that used to have a metal night on mondays, only with bands. When I spoke the guy, he semmed interested in starting it back up (it ended two years ago) but I didn’t have a real, well thought out idea. Since it’s not, technically speaking, a club night does anyone have any suggestions on how to approach it?

    That’s my thought, too. I called a local bar that used to do metal nights but with bands just to see if they still did it. The dude seemed interested, which is rad. I just need to come up with a plan for the dude.
