I
was 15 years old and helping out in a night club working
the lights and stuff and about 20 mins before the doors
opened the DJ said “I am just going to pop out for
a bit, mind the shop will you”. Maybe that wasn't
exactly what was said but I was set to do the first half
hour or so in a club full of people several years older
than me, great. As the evening wore on and the venue filled
out, it occurred to me the DJ was taking a lot longer than
he had implied with phrase “a Bit”. I realized
I had to go from warm up routine to DJ mode. A few requests
came in and I thought, sod it lets do some floor fillers,
by now there was about 300 people in the club and the dance
floor was filling up nicely. I could not believe it, I was
still at school and I was packing the dance floor of a proper
grown up nightclub. I really got into it, dancing and signing
along to the music I thought I was a superstar. For some
reason I had kept the headphones on, maybe to look more
the part or that the headphones made the music sound so
much better.
I
was laying down all the most popular dance tunes because
they were the only tracks I knew. On the dance floor things
were warming up it was starting to get packed, I was loving
it. I span round to check the records behind me; and unfortunately
the headphone cable wrapped itself around me. Not bothered
I quickly turned back to the deck to adjust a setting and
continued with the records for about two minutes. I was
dancing like a crazed catfish and singing quite loudly with
my back to the crowed. I again spun round, john Travolta
style to look at my audience.
Oops!
Several hundred people were standing stone still looking
at me (just like that bit in back to the future). I pealed
the headphones off to hear the sound of silence followed
by a crescendo of laughter. I had somehow turned off the
output to the club and I was the only one hearing the music.
What was even more embarrassing was I was now completely
tangled in the headphone cable and I had to unwind myself
before I could try to work out what I had done to the output.
