  • Clarify whether they MC and take requests, and how they handle your do-not-play list.
  • Get the hours, overtime rate, and add-ons (lighting, photo booth) in a written contract.

  • Is my date available, and what's the total for my hours?
  • Do you MC and take requests, and honor a do-not-play list?
