Honest Wedding Advice
Sometimes the advice is for the couple.
Sometimes the advice is for the vendors.
Regardless, I have almost 100K streams on 15 different platforms with the number one wedding podcast in the Philadelphia Tri-State area.
I'm Eric Scott Gold, DJ ESG, a private event DJ with over 30+ years of experience. These are my micro tips! The SHORT version of EVERYTHING, because Millennials and Gen Z's have the attention spans of a flea. I sugarcoat NOTHING. It's all from the heart and as RAW as it comes. I hope you can appreciate the honesty.
I have over 3,500 events under my belt with over 1000 online reviews. I'm a 7-time finalist for "International Mobile Entertainer Of The Year", a three-time "Best Of Philadelphia" winner, a two-time "Best Of San Diego" winner, and a two-time "Best Of Bucks" winner. I am the number one advocate in the nation for LGBTQ weddings and the first person to ever hold the pride flags up at the International DJ Expo during a live performance. I've also officiated over 200 weddings and over 50 same-sex weddings. Lastly, I had the amazing and distinguished honor of MCing (with my buddy Bob Palio behind the decks) Jason & Kylie Kelce's wedding. Yes, THAT Jason Kelce! #GoBirds
Peace, Love & God Above! :-)

What's up guys? Dj ESG on Sweating Advice, and today I'm talking about it's All Good Until Somebody Blows a Hip Pop Lock and Drop it by Huey, I don't give a shit how old you are. If you get down to the ground and you can't get back up, arthritis is kicking in and it's a scoop job. This weekend, holy fuck man, I played that song not once but twice at two different events. All right, almost like shout when you hit down to the ground and then you come back up, like you got to get back up. You know, like if your ass can't get down to the ground, well, if you can get down to the ground, that's one thing, but if you can't get back up once you get there, it's a whole other story. So let me tell you what happened this weekend and tell you how to avoid that at your wedding. So I'm playing songs literally like bend over and you know my neck, my back and all that kind of jazz, because the bride was like that's what I need, right? So? And I forget her last name. I don't even know her first name, but she told me she's you know she's part of like a rock star. She's 70 some years old. She got partying like a rock star. She's 70 some years old. She got bodily yingling. She's putting it up her stress. I don't know what she's doing with the bodily yingling, but it was interesting. And um, she starts to go down and she's down and we're getting low and all of a sudden it cracked and I hear it, it's that loud, and she's like, oh my god, I fucking busted. Like oh my god, you did not bust a hip, you did not do that, man. She got fucked up bad and she was really, really, really injured. I mean, there's no amount of alcohol we could have given her that would have settled that shit down. We had to literally get her into a car and get her home or to a hospital or a car. I don't know where they took her, but they took her somewhere. But man, that liquor was just flowing, man, all of a sudden she was down and then she wasn't back up again.
Speaker 1:But what does this have to do with your wedding? All right, I get it. We're having a good time. It's a fun fucking night. We are having a blast.
Speaker 1:You are paying me, or guys like me or girls like me or people like me to throw a party at your event and you want to have the best time of your life. Now is that time going to be at the expense of somebody going to the hospital? No, we're not trying to make that happen, but what I'm saying is that this is really not for the bride and the groom. This is more for the elders that are attending the wedding. So if you're listening to this and you're young, you know, pass this shit over to grandma. Listen, I'm going to come down from reality. For a second.
Speaker 1:Age is a number and I understand that. And you're 21, 25 years old. You know you're young, you can do anything. Man like sky's the limit on what you think you can do and what you can do. So, but if you're older and you're getting wasted and you're having a good time like you still have to remember that the body doesn't sit the way it used to. So there are certain things within your body that might not be as functional as they were when you were younger. So be mindful of that.
Speaker 1:A lot of you guys don't even go out and dance anymore. This was like maybe a couple times a year. You do this and I can understand the fact that you're having a good time and everything. But if you've got a replacement hip or a busted up knee or some kind of you know arthritis or you know joints that are not where they're supposed to be, or you know back problems, like just kind of calm down a little bit, you know. I mean like just just chill, just just party and have a good time, but just remember that you know you you got things, things that are not where they used to be and don't come back to life the way they used to be. So just when everybody else goes down, stay up. When everybody else goes left, stay in the middle. People go right, chill out right there.
Speaker 1:If you've got things that have shifted if that makes sense from when you were younger this is for my 65 and 101 crowd I had one of those, grandma. She was amazing, 101 years old, still kicking. Just tone it down a little bit. Maybe we don't need you going to the hospital. It's solid advice for the elders, the mature people, and I just want to throw that out there. So, grandma, I look forward to seeing you on the dance floor, but I look forward to seeing you upright and not on a gurney. But we're going to take that into the. Eric Scott Gold gives you great advice for the retired AARP people and this is really not for the bride and groom, but either way it's great advice. Take it or leave it. I'm ESG, I'll be back. Peace, love and God above, and I'm out. Bye, bye.
