Frequently
Asked Questions
|
What
time do you show up?
We usually
get to the event 1-2 hours before our scheduled start time. Depending
on how big of a set up we have, we might arrive 3 or 4 hours ahead
of time.
Do we pay for set up time?
When you receive a quote - everything is already included (Set Up, Performance, Break Down, Advance Planning & Preparation, Practice Time, Travel, etc.)
I heard that you had
great online planners. How do they work?
Go to the Online Event Planner Tutorial
to see exactley how our planners can be a big help and time saver
in your planning process.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, we have a business license.
Yes, we have insurance ($1,000,000 each occurence and $2,000,000
aggregate).
What do you need as far as setup goes?
Please provide us with an area 6-12 foot wide and 4 feet
off the wall to allow us enough room to comfortably set up. We
also need at least one 6 or 8 foot table, clothed and skirted
2 hours before our start time. If your engagement is outside,
please keep in mind our equipment can be hurt by over exposure
to heat or other elements such as rain. Under a tent or other
shelter is usually sufficient in these cases.
Do you take requests?
Audio To Go is always happy to take requests. We even make
it a point to announce throughout the event that we are taking
requests. Our computer database system was bought specifically
for this purpose. It helps us find those hard requests within
a matter of seconds! So, yes we love requests. Our JOB
is to play what your guests want to hear, but our SKILL
is to fit it in the mix where it is appropriate.
What do you wear?
For the majority of our events we dress formally in Tuxedo
attire. For more casual events, such as a summer company picnic,
we may come with dress slacks and a golf shirt. Please talk with
us about any other dress requirements for your event.
Can we bring our own CD's for you to
play?
If we don't have it already, absolutely!
When should we call to reserve a date?
As soon as you know that you want quality entertainment.
We never know when someone is going to take a date. Please call
us to schedule a no obligation consultation. We will be more than
happy to answer any questions that you may have and give you some
creative ideas for your party as well. Saturdays book up the quickest,
with Fridays and Sundays following in the demand.
What experience do you have?
Go to the Our Staff page for the
answer to this. You will be able to see a bio on all of our DJs
and what experience they bring with them.
Why use a DJ instead of a band?
There are a number of reasons why a DJ is the right choice
for your event.
Unlike bands,
who have a limited number of tunes that they can play, Audio
To Go has over 30,000 titles at the touch of
a finger. With this many songs we are sure to please all age ranges.
We can even tell you within a matter of 10 seconds if we have
the title that you are looking for or not (refer to the question
above involving requests).
Not only will
we be your disc jockey by playing music, but we will also act
as your Master Of Ceremonies for your event. For weddings this
would include introducing all of the special moments including
the Grand Entrance, First Dance, toasts, cake cutting, parent's
dances, the garter & bouquet tosses, etc. . . . We will also
coordinate along with your photographer/videographer to make sure
that all of these events are captured for you.
Audio
To Go does not understand the phrase "ladies &
gentlemen, we are about to take a 15 minute break. Please be patient
while we return". Unlike bands, we just do not need a break..
Audio To Go! keeps the music
rolling NON-stop for our scheduled time. It is our nightmare to
see people walk off the dance floor!
