I'm not sure how I feel about this one. I recorded it in eleven chunks. Each chunk seemed fine to me, but when they are all edited into one long string, it seems a bit much. When the chunks are small, I can launch into each with gusto, and sustain it fairly well. Trouble is, a great length of gusto is... well, you can decide. I always noticed that when I did hour-long videos in one shot, that at around the two-thirds mark I would flag a bit, and when editing, I found that slump a bit cringe-inducing. Seeing this and others like it, I'm beginning to think that the slump plays a valuable part in the pacing of a video.

Anyway, here it is.

Disc jockeys - why are they so often so very very bad?

Signup for your FREE trial to Wondrium here: http://ow.ly/uGvf30siJJP Have you ever been to an event and been amazed at how bad the DJ was? I have - many many times. If this helps any DJ anywhere to improve, then I have done some good. Support me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Lindybeige It is possible that I went too far here. The too-long-didn't-watch summary is: typical DJs who get booked for weddings and conference parties tend not to be terribly good, adaptable, vigilant, knowledgeable about dancing when they should be, and tend to be a bit more self-centred than is optimal for their role at an event. Many thanks to King Size Slim for providing proper blues musical skills in the advert.
