Last Song of the Night

As in most things, start with the end in mind. What this means in the case of DJ-ing at a gig is choose your end music before you even start the gig. If your mission is to keep people at the party after it has ended (although I can’t imagine a scenario like that) keep the music pumping until you drop. However, the most likely scenario is the club staff will start looking daggers at you as 4:00 approaches, When this happens, announce the last song and then a) play a “killer song” (a song that kills the buzz) b) play a ballad, or c) play a patriotic song. Any one of those three tactics will clear the room in short order.
