When they are that drunk I refuse to let them sing or be anywhere around my equipment. I also inform the bartender so they can cut them off. If they don't want to do that (some are reluctant to cut-off a paying customer), then remind them that they can be held responsible if that drunk leaves and gets into an accident.
I also use long enough cables to route them away from the traffic area.

that's why i have all my gears on a custom road case and all the exposed cables /wires are routed over head, i dont let anyone holding any type of beverage come near my gears, i have a dj stand that has a 48x36 front cover, if they come near me i asked them to leave or put the drinks somewhere ( politely of course )

I also won't allow anyone drunk waving their drinks about anywhere near my equipment. After twenty years of running karaoke shows I've just invested in a cattle prodder which works a treat and has improved the vocal range of a lot of my singers.

Too funny Eric.

You could be right there Doug, but I think I'm more of a Parrothead. But not that many of us on this side of the pond.
