Did two events in one mall this past Saturday. It is always exciting to play somewhere new and it is hard to prepare accurately since we have never played there. Are we going to play something old or new or do we do Spanish Music? I know in the Brea mall what to play but this Mall is not Brea. So what I did was play all kinds of music and a little bit of everything. Some folks play the same kind of music the whole time but I like to play everything to make as many folks as happy as possible. I  started with  some old school r&b then went to 80s  and 90s pop then went to  disco. We play as many songs as possible and rarely let the whole song play. The goal is to not have any dead air and to get the toes tapping when folks are shopping.

 We played for 4 hours then took the set up like 40 feet and played for a fragrance company, Creed. They were having a celebration where they had some delicious appetizers and drinks. The playlist was pretty much pop music and playing instrumental covers of famous songs. Overall it was a fun day and when I was putting everything away the employees thanked me for the diverse music selection. I do love playing at Nordstrom’s since their employees are fun natured folks who provide good customer service and they provide their own do booth. Anyone who has their in house dj booth does not play! It’s a culture thing!
