Sorry for straying into the DJ only area but i couldn't resist this one
(at least i'm not talking about getting some trim!!!). Here are 6 ways
to deal with requests which i found amusing... Props to Cosmo from
Premium for the following which i stole out of the newsletter, heh
heh...

1. make a little placard which states: "request hour from 5-7 PM" and
place it strategically for all potential "music experts" to see.

2. If the monitors are convieniently located over or near the area in
which "the music expert" will be exhibiting their music expertise, turn
the volume up as loud as possible when you first notice their approach.
Then when they start moving their mouths, just point to your ear, then
to the monitor and shrug.

3. Tell the "music expert" that mangement won't allow you to play that
genre/artist/song. Sorry not my decision.

4. after they request their favorite band just look them dead in the eye
and say "i hate them" and continue staring. If they say anything else,
just reply "mmmmm"

5. speak another language.

6. just stare.
