Ted's Tunes has been asked a lot of common questions over the years and these are just a few.
Q. Do you dress appropriately?
A.
Absolutely!
Q. What kind of music do you have?
A.
We carry all genres of music from the 30's and 40's up till last week.
Q. What kind
of equipment do you use ?
A. We use professional, commercial grade sound reinforcement.
Q. Do you take requests? The most often asked question!
A. "yes!", while some services don't.
However, some brides feel they must provide a complete list of
songs to be played at their wedding. This is a lot of work and absolutely
not necessary nor advisable because we'll also get requests from the floor
Q. Will you provide me with the names and telephone numbers of previous clients that I
could speak to regarding your service?
A. We'd love to but doing so would contravene the
Canadian Federal Privacy act, so I'll do better than that! I'll show you on request unsolicited handwritten testimonials
signed by previous clients that we've collected over the years. (There's
a lot!)
Q.Some DJ companies post some testimonials on their site and you don't.
A. I don't at this time but may in the future; and then I'll only type in testimonials that I can back up
with the handwritten document.
Q. Do you provide a contract?
A.Absolutely; we send our clients contracts that they return signed with a deposit to hold their date.
Q. Will you start early and play our ceremony music and provide PA?
A.
We're asked this quite often and the answer is ; absolutely, if available.Ask about our rates on this.
Q. Will you act as our MC/Host for the evening?
A. No problem; do it
all the time; no charge.
Q. What are your rates? Why are they higher that what my friend's
friend said he'd play it for?
A.Firstly: We offer flat rate packages and
competitive hourly rates with no hidden extras added. No obligation quotes are available on our " Client Services "
page. Secondly: We are a tax paying professional business for over thirty years and you can count on us when you only have
one chance to do it right.
Q. Will you personally be playing our event or will it be
one of your other DJ'S?
A. Ted loves what he does and usually, but doesn't always
take the first booking that comes in.
Q. How do you keep current with all the new music
when you're a bit of a relic as far as DJ's go.
A. Good question!
We make it our business to stay current with lots of help from our teen DJ'S. The rest of the staff are mature
adults with years of experience and know their stuff,
Q. Are you licensed?
A. Yes! We are licensed by the AVLA to play recorded music in a public venue
plus we are licensed to play from hard drives as well.
Q. Who is the AVLA?
A. The short answer to that is that they're the agency given
responsibility by the owners of the rights to the music and they routinely send inspectors to
halls while a dance is in progress to inspect the music source of your DJ to make sure that they comply with all the federal copyright laws.
I know this for a fact because I've been
inspected on two occasions.
Q. How do I know if my DJ is licensed?
A. Ask to see his license and,if he can't show it to you, suggest he gets one before you book, or simply decide
before hand that you're only going to consider booking with a properly licensed and insured DJ Service.
Q. How would you like to be paid?
A. A certified cheque, cash or money
order is good but you can also pay the deposit and balance on the "Client Services" page
of this website by clicking on "make a secure payment online" or, if you bank
online, you can perform an email money transfer. ( It's real slick and fast).
Let Ted's Tunes be your music
service
when you only have
one chance to do it right.
