DJ Judge Jules today revealed the secret to his successful 28-year career - young friends, getting to bed early and never turning up at a gig drunk.
The Londoner, 48, who became a professional DJ in 1987, said he was “a bit boring” and moderation was key.
He told the Standard: “I do not feel like I have been around for 30 years. I surround myself with younger mates so maybe they keep me young.”
The DJ, below, whose law degree inspired his stage name, said he had been working as an entertainment lawyer by day for the past two years.
“[It] means I do have to go to bed early in the week,” he added. “But I always looked after myself when I was working full-time as a DJ. You have to respect your audience. You can’t turn up drunk or wasted.”
Judge Jules was speaking ahead of his gig this Saturday at the Piccadilly Institute - part of his The Judge Won’t Budge Tour. He said: “It’s not really a comeback gig, as I have never stopped working.”
