Nick, thanks so much for your suggestions! Loved it!

[flaviomatamoros]

You a fool.... I love it! If you drop dead, have a moment of silence.... then keep the party going!

[Freshleecut]

One of my favourite topics! Can't believe how many people I've djed weddings with who didn't have a backup laptop. Mac people get lazy on this one for sure!

The old saying goes "Two is one and one is none." I had a shure microphone clip that holds the mic on the stand break at the seam a couple minutes before ceremony this past weekend and thank God I had 4 extra ones lol.

Great video!! Forgot my shirt a couple weeks ago. I was lucky af another DJ buddy was attending the wedding as a guest and I called him to bring me a shirt. I was SOL otherwise! As far as music aside from my master backup I’ll usually create a folder in my HD for the specific event I’m DJ’ing and copy the music I prepared there for quick access should shit hit the fan. Lol

What up Nick been really enjoying your content these days very informative thanks for the content

[majicmyke]

Literally just happened to me this past weekend. Had ceremony out in 90 degree weather with the sun beaming down on my laptop. It overheated and my music started stuttering. Whipped out the backup laptop out of my cool backpack and the show went on. Back up #6-Gurl, back that azz up!! 😂Thanks Nick!!

Moment of silence lmaoo take his ass out and keep it moving lmfaoo Nick your a legend🤙🏽💯💯

Great Advice! You should make a video about having a cable bag with extra redundant cables and adapter configurations. I know DJ's that do gigs with just the cables that are in use. If one goes bad or if an unexpected audio source is needed, they're lost. I have a large cable bag that is my lifeline with male cables, female cables, and even bisexual cables. LOL! Jokes aside, I have all types of configurations in that bag like: XLR to 3.5 TRS. I have extra USB's, IEC power cables, Speakon connectors, and the list goes on! It seems like a NO-Brainer, but some of the new-gen DJ's don't grasp the concept of being prepared for anything! Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing the knowledge!!!! You Rock Dude!!!!

Nick, a Wawa commercial came in on your video. I couldn’t remember if it was Sheetz or Wawa you like

[nesentertainments]

Nick I can picture Santi dragging you outside the reception room. Great video Nick always forget my belt lol

If ever you're without a mic (because nothing works), you can always use your back-up headphones, wired into a 1/4" input, and speak into the cup... Not the prettiest solution, but it can get the job done.
