● Zone 2 — +$100 Zone 2 travel ● 4–6 hr packages ● Terry personally, no subcontractors ● Quote = invoice

Madisonville grew up on coal and rail — the first mine opened in 1869, and the Louisville & Nashville Railroad turned the town into a shipping hub by 1870. The town still marks its heritage every year with James Madison Days, and the Hopkins County Museum houses the relocated birthplace cabin of Kentucky governor Ruby Laffoon. Backyard parties in the historic downtown district and reunions at the county park both get the same setup. Madisonville is Zone 2 — a flat $100 travel fee, shown as its own line. Central time, same as Evansville.

Party DJ FAQ — Madisonville, KY

Who shows up to DJ my party in Madisonville?

Terry Tunks, every time — no subcontractors, no rotating staff. The person you talk to on the phone is the person running your sound and mic on the day, and that's been true for 1,200-plus events with zero no-shows.

Is there a travel fee for Madisonville?

Yes — Madisonville is Zone 2, a flat $100 added to the package price and shown as its own line in your quote before you sign. It never gets blended into the package number.

Is there a deposit?

Yes. Once we've talked through your date, I hold it for 7 days with no payment. A 50% retainer, non-refundable, then locks it in the moment it clears. The balance is due on the first of the month before your event.

Can you do a slideshow or video?

Yes on the Party Plus and Full Send tiers — bring the file, I'll handle the playback and the timing so it runs when you want it to.

Do you walk through the venue beforehand?

When possible, yes. I like to see the space in advance to plan setup, power, and flow, especially for a room I haven't worked before. For a backyard, a few photos and a quick call usually cover it.

How early do you arrive to set up?

60 to 90 minutes before the start time, sometimes more for a tricky room. Setup and teardown are built into the package and never eat into your hours.

Can you play clean versions?

Yes. Tell me the crowd — kids, grandparents, coworkers — and I'll keep it clean. I'd rather know ahead of time than guess.

Can we plug in our own playlist?

You can, but you don't need to — send me your list and I'll work it in and read the room around it. If you'd rather run a playlist yourself for part of the night, that's fine too.
