Subject: RE: Bad experiences at gigs
What a lot of folk musicians seem to forget about playing for weddings is that the day is about the couple and their families and friends - not about the 'artists'. If you go in with the right attitude you can do yourself a lot of good.

A really important comment that everyone who plays any sort of wedding needs to remember. I would say this particularly applies to the DJs who think their "set" and the way they present it is the be all and end all; it isn't, it is a family celebration. If you have an egotistical attitude to your performance, then weddings are not for you.
