We asked DJs if they’re planning on attending DJ Expo (DJX) from August 9-12 at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, and what they’re looking forward to the most.
Kris Fisher, Life of the Party, Augusta, Georgia
I’ll be looking at new gear and education.
DJ Dekade, South Florida
I’m going to network and see my friends
Brandon Blane
I’ll be there. A few DJ friends and I are speaking on a panel about Twitch, incorporating it into your business model, live streaming tech, etc.
Bill Marsh , Carlysle Entertainment, Westminster, Maryland
I’ll be there Sunday through Thursday. My first DJ Expo was 1996 and I’ve been every year except one, which was 2008. The “what” that I am looking forward to most is finally being able to enjoy is “all of it!” Over the past 25 years I have come to the overall experience that comes with all five nights & four days at the DJ Times, DJ Expo.
Getting together with hundreds of fellow DJs that have become friends over the years. Gathering a group that also arrived early to get dinner together on Sunday. Hopefully with at least one DJ that I have seen there before but have not formally met. Spending Monday in several seminars learning a few new nuggets and reaffirming several old ones. Taking in a morning seminar on Tuesday, then spending an hour or two touring the exhibit hall and reconnecting with many of the exhibitors that I have also created friendships with over the past two decades. The remainder of the week is never exactly the same from one year to another because the who, what, when, where, and are ever changing. Eat, Learn, Buy, Party, Eat, Party, Sleep, Repeat.
Jessica A McKelvey
I’m looking forward to connecting with like-minded humans (plus presenting).
Gregg Alfando, Allstar Entertainment, South Jersey
Gear. I always go for the deals on gear.
Miguel Rodriguez, DJ Migz-Wax Entertainment, New Jersey
I’m attending to test out some of the new equipment and definitely purchase some stuff.
