I'm aware. Look at the diagram, it makes absolutely no sense. It has some of the CDJs connected to each other with "link via usb cable" and two of them connected with lan. You can't connect them together with USB cables.

The vast majority of my paychecks consists of bring a mobile rig into venues that don't have adequate gear , any A or B level touring act is usually going to request something that far exceeds what the average club provides.

19.06.2012		please no
Kiyoko Wellisch
19.06.2012		I really want Pauly D to shock everyone by creating a Richie Hawtin style minimal techno alter ego and mixing like a badman on 4 decks + ableton and stuff :P

I'm actually surprised by that...
Look at the list though, not that surprised to be honest. Pauly D wouldn't even know what to do with a 4 band EQ (assuming he even uses the EQ)
Kiyoko Wellisch
19.06.2012		I actually really like the fridge magnet thing. I wanna see their fridges
Valene Guasp
19.06.2012		I'v done and setup for a fair few tech riders and laughed at the hospitality riders at a few different clubs. They send out these riders and they are basically festival riders, as long as the dj gear is cool or you have told them before hand and agreed on different gear then 95% of the time its all good.

Biggest tech and hospitality rider i'v been given was for Xzibit and he got maybe 5/10% of it and was happy haha
Terra Merigold
19.06.2012		Wow Groove Armada must really put down the drinks looking at their contract...


Also like their .. "2 identical fridge magnets of local interest & a novelty beer bottle opener" demand. LOL

I liked how Pauly D requires that his turntables be set up "battle style"
Kiyoko Wellisch
19.06.2012		Socks but not boxers. Maybe he goes commando?
Palma Hanslip
19.06.2012		SOCKS?? What's wrong with bringing your own socks Mau5?!
Valeri Holderness
19.06.2012		interesting to see how some are a few lines long while others have pages upon pages of demands

19.06.2012		Sidney Samson. Now thats a rider.

Most DJ's you/we know don't live on the road for months at a time.
Julius Schoenhofer
20.06.2012		DJ Pauly D:
-One (1) 5 gallon tub of industrial strength hair gel
-One (1) Bomb squad, for removal of grenades
-One (1) Dressing room with voice activated lock, programmed to respond to "yeah buddy"

lol. Yeah………

The amount of Fiji water that artists/talent/actors/etc. go through is insane. Apparently wasting all that money on gas tastes good.

(I'm neither a flaming heart liberal nor a tree-hugger, but it absolutely appalls me that people can't find decent tasting water in the US so they have to fly it over from the other side of the world in plastic)

19.06.2012		Makes me more appreciative of my favorite artist and djs who work with small venues to play more personal sets. I hate big venues.

Efrain Scharr
19.06.2012		Pauly D's...
One (1) Liter of Grey Goose vodka
One (1) Liter of Patron
One (1) Bottle of cranberry juice
One (1) Bottle of orange juice
Six (6) Bottles of sparkling water (Pellegrino)
Twelve (12) Bottles of water (Fiji or Evian)
Four Hundred Fifty (450) Dollars per Diem ($150 per person per day)
Four (4) Bottles of house champagne to spray crowd


Not sure what has me more appauled, the champagne to spray on the crowd or the $450 for him and his friends to play with...

Reading Pendulum's requirements is pretty hilarious.
