Tweets from the booth, episode 8

Another entry in an ongoing series about the realities, challenges and tactics of spinning records in public for pay…

gonna start bringing a large LED monitor with me to all my gigs to display the "drunk in love" request counter, in real time.

I’ll drink to that.

While we're on the topic, any of y'all fielded a Becky request for Nicki's "Lookin Ass" yet? Was it delicately worded? Did they sing along?

It’s only a matter of time.

Big up all the wonderful foreign people who request pop songs from their homelands. #no #nein #nyet #não #NOOOOOOOOOOOO

Tourists.

If you're one of those guys who comes up to me and is all like " i used to dj and…" I BET YOU DID BITCH

WELP.

As a DJ I am the one to keep the party going. So why would I play your request because you're trying to leave?

— dj harvey dent (@djharveydent) January 16, 2014

BECAUSE IT’S ALL ABOUT ME AND NONE OF THESE OTHER PEOPLE HAVING A SHIT YOUR PANTS GOOD TIME MATTER!!

Never tell a dj that you are about to leave so he can put your request on. You were gonna leave anyway, right? #OhWell

Too much logic.

Who is this "Deadmow-five" artist that this drunk young lady keeps requesting?

*Frantically waves five fingers in your face*

If any of the bottle service clients that drop $30K in one night want to pay off my student loans of equal amount that would just be super.

Wrong career choice.

Every girl who requests Chris Brown gets a lecture from me on women and self-respect

Makes for a long night.

So this young girl walks up to the DJ booth and ask how am I playing music without a Laptop
