Top 5 Reasons Why Live Music Is Always Better Than A deejay
I have spent hours and hours practicing my instruments and I have spent thousands of dollars on my education. I might come up with 20 Reasons. But I willstart with 5.
1. Classier: The right performer adds a certain amount of class to any event. A pianist playing a Grand Piano in a tuxedo of any gathering adds romance and dignity. A disc jockey behind a record player never will be able to establish that effect.
When you hire a live performer or performer, you are telling your customers and companions, ” I’m a class act.”
2. Versatility: disc jockeys are limited by their recorded product and tempos on the recordings.
Musicians will a deejay ust to their surroundings. If the dance floor is packed, a performer could keep the song going and won’t be limited to the length of the original recording.
A performer can also change his tempo to the activities in a room. When I see a romantic couple dancing to Frank Sinatra tune, I’ll often add that spark that I feel for my wife.
Granted, a disc jockey might have a repertoire that is only limited by the amount of CDs they buy. But a good musician knows thousands of tunes.
I know I’ve might forgotten more songs than I learned over the years. You’ll love watching the performer ‘fake’ their way through a tune they have not played in years.
That kind of spontaneity is only possible when you use live music instead of a disc jockey. Which brings us to Reason #3.
3. People Love To See Other People Screw Up: Let’s face it. Musicians are human beings. we make mistakes like everybody else. Why’s American Idol so popular? Because we all want to see someone fail. And succeed! Your friends and customers will love to try and “stump the band” when we are playing at your Sales get together or Product Rollout. (Watch their amazement when we succeed.) “Music is a Manifestation of Emotion. The feeling must always override the Technique” – Jan Hammer (Keyboards for Mahavishnu Orchestra and Jeff Beck)
4. Intimacy: There is something decidedly intimate about seeing someone play an instrument and create music on the spot. Music is magical. It is al most surreal. might a DJ play with emotion? Intimacy? people love to watch my hands as I play the piano. It is as Assuming that the music appears out of nowhere. When a performer performs for you, it feels like they are creating just for you — right on the spot. Magical!
5. Interaction: Not only will a great entertainer a DJ ust his gig to a live audiences. A live band will interact with each other onstage. A DJ is only one individual. Indeed a DJ may and will interact with his audiences. But a nice performer will interact so much better. additionally, just imagine the added dimension a live band will bring to your next company Event. A live band will interact with your audiences AND the performers in the band. If you have ever had the pleasure of listening to a group of performers ‘hang out’ following the gig, you know what I’m saying is true. A DJ has only an audiences for interaction.
Music is truly the universal language. It transcends any barrier — geographic, cultural or economic. Hiring the right Musical Act will promote your ability to reach your customers and clients.
