Help Me Help Upcoming Djs
My Name is Lorenzo , Known in the Dj world as Dj Fantom .. I've been djing for a while now and its my life long Love and passion ..... i can go on for pages but i will get to the point ...
Last year I got Hit by a car and hurt my shoulder and back.... i couldnt Dj and lost my Job.. Now im recovering and getting back into djing but things are slow moving. in my down time i thought id like to give back to the thing that kept me out of trouble and gave me joy thruout my life. DJ'ING . I Currently Host a open Turntable night for up coming djs and people who want to learn to dj to come sign up, play sets , learn some tips and network .
THIS IS A "NON PROFIT" SITUATION .. Meaning i make no money off it . infact it costs me money and i do it just to provide a resource for djs to come together and network and learn ... Right now im living off personal dj gigs and have very little money to keep the open turntables going..
Due to recent shady business at the Current Venue I have to move the Open Turntables to a new Venue... now heres where i need Help... the previous venue Had a sound system and a Serato dj interface (a interface that connects to turntables and mixers and runs the software serato scratch live most djs use) . I would just take my Turntables and mixer (carry it by hand 3 blocks to the venue) well the new venue doesnt have either and ill have to bring my sound system and I need to purchase a serato box , specifically for the open turntables, as i use a dj controller for my personal gigs .... also the new venue is further away, and i dont drive currently.. so i will have to take cabs transporting the gear.
I'm just trying to raise money to purchase a serato box and cover expenses of running the event and transporting the gear (also possibly paying someone to help me carry it) any and all help will be appreciated .. KEEP THE ART OF DJ'ING ALIVE !!!!!!
