What are the advantages of a DJ verses a live band?
Like you I love music of all types, and nothing beats a good live band. The problem is finding a good live band. Most good live bands will cost you up to five times what a good DJ will cost you. Cost is not the only factor. Live bands will require several breaks during your event. DJs will in most cases play nonstop. The other problem is most bands want to play only what they are good at playing. Your selections are very limited. In most cases with Weddings in particular, you will have to find someone to take over the duties of making the announcements, etc. A DJ has the ability to cover all the music genres from Country,Hip Hop, Alternative, Rock, R&B, and everything in between.
