How are you different from
other DJ companies?

In comparing apples to apples, our direct competitors are the professional Interactive DJs whose rates, service, talent and experience is similar to ours. We highly respect our competition because they are out working hard and giving up their weekends for the love of the business like we are, but there are many differences. Differences in Party Planners, standards, company procedures, work ethics, personalities & creativity, as well as differences in overall company and event design. We are able to bring our experience from over one thousand events that we have performed in the Chicagoland Areas to your one special night. This means we can take your vision of the perfect celebration and make it a reality. We've been entertaining for over 15 years; but there is nothing old about our company. Our systems are professional in appearance and state-of-the-art and, of course, our DJs are polished with experience, are fun, and exciting to work with. We bring to your event our 100% music expertise, 100% entertainment experience, and 100% professionalism. The investment you make in hiring our Illinois Entertainment company reflects the high quality of DJ service that we bring to your event.

Why a DJ instead of a band?

If you can't decide between a DJ and a live band, know that we offer packages that include BOTH a DJ and a Band.

(1st) Know that bands, even smaller ones, usually cost twice as much, or more, than a Mobile Disc Jockey.

(2nd) Mobile DJs play the ORIGINAL Music, the way everyone remembers it.

(3rd) Bands take breaks, usually 15 minutes every hour which means you may lose some guests before all the important events are done. Our Mobile DJs make sure the music never stops, so your guests can keep dancing all night long.

(4th) Mobile DJs can accommodate requests from you and your guests most of the time. Most bands don't take requests, except in advance, and often cannot play them if they don't know the song.

(5th) DJ's have THOUSANDS of songs available with a very wide variety of music , bands usually know how to play less than 100 songs and the variety is usually limited. Remember, you want ALL your guests, young AND old to have a great time.

(6th) Our Mobile DJs periodically check the sound levels, from the audience's perspective, so the music is never too loud or too quiet. Bands usually end up playing too loud because they cannot hear the music volume from the audience's perspective because they must stay on stage.

What are your prices?

1st, keep in mind that it is very important to compare Apples to Apples, it is very difficult to compare a Wedding DJ service by the prices BEFORE learning about what the service has to offer, their experience, their uniqueness, their quality, their standards... For instance, using a car as an example, If one car dealership is offering a used 1999 Ford Escort for $3,000 and another car dealership is offering a used 1999 Ford Escort for $4,000, but when you do more research, you find out that the car for $3,000 does not come with a guarantee, has alot of internal problems, has alot more miles, will not pass the emissions test...
 
So keep in mind that prices depend on a variety of factors. With all that said, our affordable prices for Friday evening, Saturday evening, and Sunday evenings range from $980 - $2190 (Our calendar tends to fill up quickly on these evenings, especially in the months of January, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October & December. Otherwise, prices ranges from $150 - $275 per hour depending on many factors including: time, location, venue, holidays, and any extras you may want. Once we provide a quote, that price will not change unless the terms of your event change and you will never have to pay for setup or takedown time. We typically arrive "at least" an hour prior to your scheduled start time because we like to be set up long before your first guest arrives.

[Back To Top]



Do you offer a guarantee?

Since we are very confident in our DJ service, we want you to be confident also, so we offer a money back guarantee at the end of your event if you are unsatisfied with our service.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



Do You Accept Credit Cards?

Yes, we accept Visa, Mastercard, Personal Checks, Money orders or Cash. We do not accept livestock, 1st born children, or In-Laws for payment :) Your balance is due, the latest, 2 weeks before your event.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



Are your rates negotiable?

Since we don't "over charge" our prices for entertainment, we never offer any "coupons" or "discounts". Our services are priced according to our quality, the level of service we offer before and during your event, and our worth in the industry. Whether you expect 50 guests or 500 guests, we work just as hard for all events. When you reserve our services you're not only paying for exciting DJ entertainment, but you are also paying for reliability, personal attention, trustworthiness, a Party Planner, complete customization & peace of mind.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



How do we budget for a DJ?

Many of our clients will send us a payment every few months to put toward their balance because balances from other vendors are due "One Month / One Week" before the event which can be overwhelming. Many have told us that event budgeting works best when they make a list of "budget priorities", or services that will have the most impact on the success of their event. Professional entertainment can contribute to over 85% of the success of your event and leaves a lasting impression for your guests. If you remember the last three weddings/events you've attended, the one thing you will likely remember the most is the entertainment, whether good or bad.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



Is a deposit required to reserve our date?

Yes, we require a $400 reservation fee to reserve your date. Often, we get a number of requests for the same date and time, especially for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings. The reservation fee ensures that we have a committed event and will then start to turn away other events looking for that same date.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



Do you offer a contract?

Absolutely. Our contract is straightforward and written in plain English so that you can understand the terms before signing. With our contract you can have peace of mind knowing that there will be no surprises or hidden extra charges. We will also give you a copy of the contract for your records.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



Can we come see you perform?

We discourage this for the following reasons:

(1) Most clients don't want complete strangers showing up at their event and we want to honor our clients' requests to have their events remain private.

(2) It is very difficult for us to take time away from our current event to talk to a future client.

(3) Your event is unique. Each event we do is different, from the music styles desired, to the guests themselves, to the amount of interaction requested. We customize each performance to suit each client, so what works for one, may not work for another.

(4) Some Banquet Halls & Hotels don't allow this anymore because of DJ Companies abusing this by bringing their friends to help themself to your bar tab.

With all that said, as you can see, coming to see us perform at someone else's event really gives you very little indication of how your event will be. We would, however, like to meet with you at our office in Lisle, and also invite you to visit our "references" page on this website to see what past clients are saying about our company.

1st Class Interactive is a Christian
company? Does that mean that
you only play Christian music?

No. We play most of the music that other companies play, but our songs are edited for vulgar content and, yes, we are a Christian company. Using a Wedding Reception DJ, as an example, you can have peace of mind that a Grandmother as well as a flowergirl will not feel uncomfortable and want to leave your event. Being a Christian DJ company also means that your DJ will stick to our "highest standards" at your special event.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



Do your DJs wear Tuxedos?

Yes! Unless you tell us otherwise, your DJ will be at your formal event wearing a formal tuxedo provided by Lorenzos Tuxedos in Lisle Illinois. For non formal events, your DJ can wear a Shirt Tie Pants combo, a Polo Shirt Pants combo, or our 1st Class company shirts. We are also available to come "Dressed To Theme"
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



How far in advance should I
reserve your services?

Dates are first-come, first-served and are secured with a reservation fee and a signed contract. Without sounding "pushy", we suggest the sooner, the better! Some of our most popular dates can fill up as early as 10-14 months in advance, especially in the months of May, June, September & December.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



How much experience do you have?

The owner of the company started in the DJ industry in 1988, with "records and turntables." He has performed for more than 1,500 events over the years. Our company was also named as one of the top 12 DJ companies in the United States at a competition held in Atlantic City with over 3,000 other Mobile Disc Jockeys.

How do you handle music requests?

We always make every effort to play all of YOUR requests. Also, we will provide a complete, printed listing of the music that we have for your guests to choose from. Where your Interactive DJs experience comes in, is knowing what music requests will entertain your guests, get them out on the dance floor, which are hard to dance to, and which may be a good "listening song" for 1-2 people. Don't feel like you need to pick each and every song. Remember, that's why you are hiring a professional in the first place. When picking out your playlist and do NOT playlist, keep in mind your guests interests as well, so that they will also enjoy the music at your event. Sometimes, you may have a request that we don't have because it has never been requested before through us. In this case, we can either purchase that CD or, if you want us to use a CD from your collection, we can do that as well. On your request list, simply indicate which songs you will be providing. You can bring your CDs to us at the start of the event and we'll promptly return them to you at the end.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



Can we give you a
"Do Not Play" List?

Definitely! If you tell us not to play a specific song, or even a specific type or style of music, rest assured that "It will not be played." The do not play list is equally important, if not more important, than the request list itself! We understand that you don't want to hear particular songs or you may have been to one too many events where they play the "Same Typical Party Songs."
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



How good is your customer service?

Customer service is very important to us! People always tell me that they have e-mailed or called other Illinois Entertainment Companies, and they don't receive calls or emails back until 2 or 3 days later! You deserve a company that takes your calls/e-mails seriously. We take your e-mails/phone calls very seriously. Normally, you can expect a same day response. We have a full-time office that allows you to talk to a live person instead of the answering machine you may get when calling a part-time DJ service. You will also meet with your actual DJ to plan, design and create the entertainment for your special event.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

What does your music library consist of?

Our company has an extensive 100% "legal" music library. What we mean by "legal" is that all our music is paid for. Up until recent, alot of DJ companies were illegally downloading most of their music from the internet without paying for it. Because of this, a handful of DJ companies were and are being closed down by the authorities, because the internet can now track when you illegally download music AND when you deleat your illegally downloaded music. Our music library consists of music from the 1920s up to music that is just coming out on the radio. We have a list of our "Top 275" most requested songs on our website under "Song Advice", even though that list only consists of about 3% of the music that we have.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

Do you have SPANISH music and other ETHNIC music?

We do have ALOT of Spanish music and ALOT of Ethnic music. We have alot of experience in ethnic music because we DJ events where the client has requested, for example, only Spanish music
 
Spanish Music We Have: We have Salsa, Merengue, Cumbia, Bachata, Banda, Rancheros, Latin Pop, Mariachi...

How are your Disc Jockeys trained?

Our Interactive DJs are trained yearly through nationally recognized seminars, as well as monthly, with on-the-job and in-office training. We update our skills on a regular basis to stay modern and provide you "1st Class" Chicago Disc Jockey service.

How much do I, as a client,
need to do during my event?

Your DJ will act as your Event or Wedding Planner to completely design and coordinate your event with you ahead of time, so all you need to do during your event is relax, dance, and enjoy yourself!! With our experience and expertise, we will ensure that your event is memorable and flows smoothly. For instance, your Disc Jockey will coordinate with your photographer, to assure that you get the best photo opportunities for your photo album. Your DJ also coordinates with your videographer and banquet hall so that everyone involved with your event knows exactly what is happening at all times.

How loud do you play the music?

We play the music at "One point twenty one jigawatts...", just kidding! One of the biggest complaints of bands and DJs alike, is that they play the music too loud. It doesn't have to be that way! During cocktail and dinner hours our speakers will be positioned so that the sound will fill the room at a comfortable level. When the dancing starts, the speakers will be repositioned for maximum sound coverage on the dance floor and minimum sound exposure throughout the rest of the banquet room. This means that on the dance floor the music will be at a very comfortable, yet exciting level for dancing. Throughout the rest of the room, the music will be less predominant so that your guests can carry on a normal conversation without screaming! So if you want the music softer, we'll play it softer. If you want it louder, we'll play it louder. One of the problems some DJ companies have is that they control the music and volume from BEHIND the speakers so they only hear about 30-40% of the volume the guests hear. We take the time often during the event to check the sound from other places in the room to make sure the volume is "just right."

How will you dress for my event?

It's up to you! Normally, we wear a tuxedo for formal events. If you want us to wear something more casual, we can. We always make every reasonable attempt to accommodate your code of dress. For instance, if you want us to wear a costume for your costume party, we will.

What type of equipment do you use?

We pride ourselves on the Chicago Disc Jockey sound and lighting systems that we have designed for our company. Our balanced sound system is crystal clear at any volume level and very professional in appearance. We also have state-of-the-art lighting and special effects. Also, all of our equipment and music is company-owned and maintained. We do not rent and feel that renting is unreliable. Our speakers are "JBL" or "Yamaha", our amplifiers are "Mackie", our CD players are "Denon", Our mixers are "Numark" or "Gemini", our microphones are "Sure", our sonic maximizers are "BBE", our lighting is "Martin" and "American DJ".

We do request 2 six-foot, skirted tables, shaped like an "L," but if space is a concern, we can utilize 1 eight-foot table.

Do you "sub-contract" out to other DJ's ?

We don't use sub-contractors. We don't depend on someone else to show up on time, with their equipment, their vehicle, and their music. We have it all, and it all leaves from our location. The benefit of working with our company is that you know who you're working with at all times. Our DJs prefer to work exclusively for our company. Also, you never have to worry about getting "the new guy" or the "DJ-in-training." You will have the opportunity to work with your specific mobile disc jockey every step of the way, having plenty of opportunity to share with him exactly how you'd like your event to be or not be.

Can you provide
lighting and special effects?

Yes. Each of our affordable packages come with various lighting effects, from simple, colored, "mood enhancing" lights and a mirrored ball lighting effect, to extravagant, intelligent lighting effects all at affordable prices. Keep in mind that lighting can help create an atmosphere in which your guests feel more comfortable to dance. If you decide that lighting is not appropriate for your event, we suggest just dimming the banquet room lights to make a comfortable setting for those dancing. We also have available bubble machines, smoke machines, confetti cannons, and party favors, as well as other extras.

What is intelligent / computerized lighting?

Intelligent lighting /computerized lighting is the "elaborate" lighting that they use at Illinois Entertainment dance clubs and concerts. Intelligent lighting is usually programmed by the DJ and it normally moves to the music. In addition, it can be more spectacular because it does not repeating the same motion over and over, as in non-intelligent lighting. If you are interested in this type of lighting, we can provide this for your event.

How do you know what music
to play at what time?

Experience, Experience, Experience. A very important ability of a DJ or a Wedding Reception DJ is to be able to "read the crowd," keeping within the boundaries previously set forth in our planning meetings. We like to incorporate a variety of music for all ages at the party. Being able to pace your event and provide the right song at the right moment is more important than you might think! For example, knowing when to switch from 70's disco to 80's retro, knowing when to put on a slow song and how many is important to keep everyone interested until the last dance is important in keeping everyone interested till the last dance. Knowing the order and style in which the songs should be played and the way songs should be mixed together in order to keep the event flowing smoothly is also very important.

Will Your DJs Drink Alcohol
During My Event?

No! Our company policy is "no smoking or drinking of alcohol before or during any performance!" so that you can have peace of mind that your DJ or Wedding DJ will not be "slurring" his speech, playing "wierd" music, or "flurting" with the ladies. 1st Class Interactive is a Christian company and our Interactive DJs uphold the highest ethics and professionalism while providing entertainment at your event, one more reason why we are "1st Class."

Should we provide a meal for the DJ?

A Chicago Disc Jockey friend told me about an experience he had at one Chicagoland wedding where the Banquet hall asked the DJ, the Photographer, and the Videographer to eat in a DIFFERENT room during dinner and, TRUE STORY, there was a surprise appearance during dinnertime while they were in a different room eating, NEIL DIAMOND showed up to perform 3 songs. But since the DJ, Photographer, and videographer were in another room, Neil Diamond had no microphone to use, there were no professional pictures taken of him and no video. So it is VERY important to have your DJ, Photographer, and Videographer in the room AT ALL TIMES.
 
Also keep in mind that for a DJ, with setup and takedown time, a DJ will most likely be at an event for 9-10 hours, which is a long time without a meal. Our only request is that you let us know ahead of time.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

Can you provide music for my
wedding ceremony?

Yes! We have supplied music for many wedding ceremonies in the past years. We will go over the music selections for your ceremony at our meeting "one month before" your event. Our Experienced Wedding DJ Service can take care of it all
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



Do you take breaks?

No. Our services are truly uninterrupted and non-stop. From our scheduled start time to our scheduled end time, we will never have to "stop" the music, which allows your guests to enjoy uninterrupted entertainment. With using a Wedding Reception DJ as an example, all your guests will then be more likely to stay longer.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



Do you carry back-up equipment?

We have back-up equipment as well as back-up DJs. Your special event could very well be one of the most memorable days of your life, so we offer you the highest level of reliability and integrity.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek

[Back To Top]



Do you hang any banners or other advertisements?

No. We pride ourselves on being elegant. We do appreciate referral business and feel our service speaks for itself. The extent of our "advertising" is a small stack of business cards next to our equipment so that guests can easily take a card.

How interactive are your DJs?

Whether you want a conservative DJ or an outgoing Interactive DJ, it's your choice. By default, we're only as interactive as necessary to keep your guests having an incredible time on the dance floor. Even at our most outgoing level, we still remain totally professional and not "Cheesy" or "Corny." We do not take the spotlight from the guest of honor, but rather "enhance" your event with interactiveness. Simply put, we are interactive in a "classy" way, hence the name of our company, " 1st Class Interactive."

What does it mean to "Mix"?

Chicago Disc Jockey "Mixing" is unlike a radio station where one song fades out and the next starts. "Mixing" is a term used for professionally fading one song into the other seamlessly by matching beats which will uphold the "energy" on the dance floor. This will help to keep your guests on the dancefloor and will help your event flow more smoothly. Wedding Djs Chicago are known for their high energy of mixing.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek



Where should my DJ set up his equipment?

The best place for your DJ to set up is as close to the dance floor as possible. This avoids having tables between the DJ and the dance floor. Also, a good "rule of thumb" is to seat the "younger crowd" closer to the speakers than the "older crowd."
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek



How can I prepare for our "follow-up" meeting?

1. Have your "Extranet" finished.
2. For weddings, have your bridal party list ready in the order you want your Wedding DJ to announce them.
3. Have your lists of "Play" and "Do Not Play" songs completed.
4. Optional - have a timeline sketched out. For example, start time and end time of your cocktail hour, dinner, when to do the cake cutting, etc. If you need help with this timeline, you can lean on our experience.
5. We'll take care of the rest.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek



How many events can your
company do in a day?

Even though we have three main DJs, we only schedule two events per day so that we have back-up DJs available. We strive to offer "Quality" service, not "Quantity" service, so we can better focus on your entertainment needs.
Copyright © 2002 1st Class Interactive & Scott Fijolek
