And do you inforce this demand.

just what I was wondering.

Presumably you go up to the bride & say "Hi, I'm your DJ. I'm ready for the first of my free drinks now, thanks"

SEDA contract says that "the disc jockey andhis/her assistant(s) shall not be expected to be 'on stage' for more than four hours at a time without refreshments." Sometimes people take it to mean they should provide said refreshments - and I dont discourage them! But only big stars have riders stipulating that they are to be provided.

If a DJ wants to ensure they go no longer than 4 hours without refreshements, all they have to do is take their own with them like I do (a 2 litre bottle of water which I fill from my tap & chill in the fridge) or go to the bar & buy them there.

Terms & conditions are often complicated enough, and in my opinion something like this is very cheeky & should not be part of any terms & conditions at all.

I wonder how many people with this in their T&C would turn the music off after 4 hours if nobody has brought them any food or drink?

Have you ever seen a ryder for a band before. Or a contract for a toastmaster? What makes a DJ any different?

No.

Or a contract for a toastmaster?

No again.

I don't know about bands or toastmasters, but as I've already said, I just think a DJ demanding food and/or drink in their terms & conditions is very cheeky.

If others want to do it, that's up to them...but I for one would feel VERY uncomfortable & awkward going up to a client & saying "Hi. I'm your DJ, and I'm ready for the first of my free drinks as stated in my terms & conditions"

No, but I've seen a rider for a band & partaken of some of them myself

Why does the phrase "He could start an argument in an empty room" keep coming to mind?

[discomobiledj]

I would actually remove the logo that you have as it makes the text not very readable, especially on the terms and conditions page where the text changes.

If it's a double sided T & C's then just have the logo at the top and leave the rest blank.

I would have more space for people to write in though.

Soundtracker, although you didn't use any quotes, I have a feeling that might have been aimed at me, in which case I'd like to tell you something.

I do more NON-argumentitive posts than anyone else on this forum.

Like it or not, it's a fact.

Just kidding...
