one gig i had no one dancing ....all night, I was ready to throw in the towel after it, thinking it must have been me and my choice in music, i played every type of music i could, a really good mixture and despite nearly begging them to come up and tell me what they wanted me to play nothing worked....not 1 solitary request either.......the night dragged and i Just wished it would hurry up and end, i was in such a bad mood......then when disassembling the rig, nearly everyone came up and shook my hand and thanked me for a wonderful night, i questioned one or two and they said that they are just not dancers they like a drink and like the music ......i have now learned to watch the feet, see if they are chair dancers ....i now dont take no dancers as personally lol

At some parties we're the most interesting thing in the room - some people don't have much to say to each other and there's no other focus for their attention. They're probably used to sitting at home staring at the TV for hours on end and we take the goggle box's place.

I've given up on the paranoia ...
If noone makes a request and I am playing the usual pleasant tunes the I just assume all is ok.
That's it.

Toby - There's no way I would've gone up to her. It's fair enough being paranoid (I know exactly what you mean) but you may aswell have just got on the mic and said "Excuse me...what's your problem?"...It would have had the same effect and that's that it would've embarassed her.
Of course..you, me...anyone wouldn't do what I've said but in my opinion it was just as bad as going up to her.
I just think that if people don't know how to enjoy themselves when the DJ is playing a full range of music and they can't be bothered to request stuff because they think we are all mind readers....well, stuff 'em!

The danger is that it could be seen as confrontational. You know the usual thing in pubs....
"What's up mate?"

Perhaps we bring this upon ourselves by perpetuating the myth that we can "read the dancefloor"
