Why should I use a disc jockey instead of a live band?

Reliability - A Disc Jockey has less personnel to rely on to show up and provide an optimum performance.

Variety - The larger the guest list, the more variety in music is needed. Live bands are usually limited to what they can play well. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment's extensive music library can keep any crowd happy.

Dancing - People like to dance to music they are familiar with. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment plays the original versions of your favourite music.

Continuous Music - DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment doesn't take a break. The music only stops playing at times you specify (such as toasts and speeches).

Cost - Fewer personnel at your function can mean a lower cost. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment will provide your favourite music at a reasonable rate.

Sound - A disc jockey can tailor the sound level much easier than a live band can. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment will reduce the volume level during pre-dinner drinks and meals to allow your guests to converse comfortably; music will typically be played somewhat louder during dancing, but this is totally at your discretion.

Participation - A disc jockey tends to offer more audience participation than bands. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment will encourage active participation by all of your guests.

Light Show - A disc jockey includes effects lighting. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment includes an array of effects lighting at no extra cost.

Why should I use a disc jockey instead of a Juke box?

Personal Service - A juke box cannot offer the personal service that a disc jockey can. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment is able to assist in the planning of your function and can cater for instant requests far better than a juke box.

Music - Juke boxes tend to have the same songs repeated. You cannot always select the music to be included in the juke box. Also juke boxes tend to be repeatedly reset so that guests don't get to hear their favourite songs. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment will schedule your favourite songs so they blend perfectly with the set; you won't have a rock tune between dance tracks.

Professional dj equipment

Variety - The larger the guest list, the more variety in music is needed. Juke boxes are limited to a certain amount of music. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment's extensive music library can keep any crowd happy.

Sound - The sound quality produced from a Juke box is of a lower quality than that of a disc jockey using professional equipment.

Participation - A juke box cannot encourage audience participation.

Light Show - A disc jockey includes effects lighting. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment includes an array of effects lighting at no extra cost.

How will the Disc Jockey dress?

Unless requested differently by clients, the disc jockey will dress in a lounge suit. The DJ dress code can be specifically selected by you on our booking confirmation.

What type of audio and lighting equipment will be used?

DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment has invested in only high grade professional sound and lighting equipment. Now featuring the High Fidelity sound of the incomparable BOSE L1™ Personalized Amplification System™. Inferior equipment, often homemade, used by some dj operators in an effort to cut costs, can result in static, inadequate bass, distortion and generally poor sound.

What music will be played at my function?

DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment plays music with tremendous mass appeal, as well as requests made by you and your guests. On the booking confirmation and through use of the client online planning facility, you may specify musical requests and styles of music you feel is appropriate (and inappropriate) for your function. The DJ will use this information along with professional judgement in selecting music and in honouring or declining specific requests.

Variety of music



What if I request music that DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment does not own?

DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment's music collection is quite large and does include most common requests. However, if you give an advance request for music that I do not own, I will make every effort to obtain it for your function. The further in advance I receive the request, the more likely I'll be able to get it. I can also play music from CD's supplied by you or your guests.

Return to Questions List


Will you be setting up while our guests are present?

No. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment always schedules to arrive about an hour and a half earlier than the agreed start time of the event. This allows ample time to be completely set-up, a sound check to be carried out and elimination of any potential problems prior to the time that your first guest arrives.

Return to Questions List


Does the DJ get involved or interact with the guests?

This is up to you. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment can be as interactive as you would like. I pride myself on being able to tailor the performance to suit your needs. Whilst audience participation is always recommended as this promotes party fun, should all you wish is some low background music, I can accommodate that as well. Again, it is entirely up to you.

Return to Questions List



Will I receive a written contract?

Yes. Every client that engages DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment to perform at their function will receive a written contract that details all the issues pertaining to the event. If a DJ will not give you a written contract, then you are best off to keep looking. A contract protects both parties. Always get a contract.

Professional lighting effects



Do you display any banners or other advertisements?

Absolutely not. DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment prides itself on being elegant. Whilst referral business is always very much appreciated, I feel that my services speak for themselves. I therefore do not display any banners, logos, or signs on any of the equipment or elsewhere in the function room nor place any business cards on the dinner tables. Should any of your guests wish a business card for future reference, one will be discreetly provided to them on their request.

What if DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment is already booked for my date?

One of the advantages about booking DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment, is that you deal directly with me from your initial enquiry right through to the conclusion of the performance at your event. For clients who book DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment, that's great! - as they receive the utmost personalised service. For clients that wish to engage my services for a date that is already booked, if you wish, I am able to assist by providing a referral to a select group of professional DJ operators that I have confidence in, and know, will have your best interests at heart.
