I spent a little time in photoshop, but I will submit pic when fully done.


The trailer will be used for outdoor dj parties. What do you all think??

I also talked to tyrone a little about hints on lights to use for this trailer!

I just got the trailer yesterday, and the awnings are ten feet long! PERFECT!!

IS THIS A DJ REVOLUTION?? lol!!!

So if anyone has any hints or tips for lights, I would be more than glad to hear them! Thanks! I dont want to spend an arm and leg, but I want a great light show that will last a few years, and also that no other DJ's will try for a few years!

Heres the actual trailer, what it looks like now!

YES THIS TRAILER NEEDS AROUND $1000 to $2000 in TLC, but I know this will work! I wont be able to paint, do the lights until end of march/early april, or when it warms up!

I also have 100 folding chairs, 10 folding tables, and 3 12x20 screened tents I can rent out for the ultimate outdoor party. I am going to buy more chairs, but this is just a start!

Well here they are, dont beat me down too bad on the pics. The back walls in the trailer looks like there is water damage, it is actually dried glue from carpet. The trailer is overall in great condition, for the price I got it for.

I want some of you to throw out numbers on what something like this should cost. Some of you might make me feel better...lol!

Well heres your chance to critique my purchase! Behave friends! lol

Adam...

I can't open the pictures to make them bigger... Do you have bigger shots?

I've been watching trailers on e-bay and the prices run all over. A 24 foot brand new trailer can go for 5 to 6 grand. The cheapest new ones are out of Georgia (that's where Hallmark makes them). I'd say anything under $1500 for that is good.
 
Here's what I want...

The prices in Georgia are about 50% of what they are up here... I'm looking for a 16 foot, with rear ramp door. This one is currently at $2000 and is new. This picture was only 6K in size... try for over 10 or 15 K in pixels when posteg a picture.

so are you planning on making the trailer a kinda "Party On Wheels" Where you could take it to outdoor events? Car Shows or the such?

I knew a guy in CA who had a rig on a trailer and he did great at Car Shows, Summer Night Parties... it was cool...
 
Got my first possible gig....and only had the trailer two days!

As I have mentioned, I have not even started on the trailer, and seems interest is already in a small future start. Got a call today telling me to submit a proposal to a local city, so they can approve the "outdoor party *fest*" for August 10...which is a friday night!

Bottom line........in my neck of the woods, its harder to get gigs on friday nights! So this is definitely a start. I already know four other towns that were just as interested, if not more....of doing something this year! Maybe even a couple of events...*if schedule permits.*

So I am excited, it helps assure me that this is going to be the right direction! If I can get my cost of the trailer back in two years, I will definitely know, my business plan is definitely on track!

I just figured, worst case scenario, nobodies interested, and I sell the trailer again for a small loss. But I guess, it might look different! Also the best thing is knowing there are several small towns in this area that have outdoor parties (street dances), at least once a year!

So just a start, just got to finish trailer and start advertising before the major graduation parties start!

Right now its -8F so I dont really get the desire to freeze my buns off working on the trailer! I'll just have to wait a little while!

As I said earlier, I am going to buy at least another 55 chairs to 105 chairs so I can do bigger outdoor parties.

I will probably buy a few more tents, but we will see if it is necessary. Yes this trailer can be used for whatever outdoor event that ever may be!

For instance, this can be used as a announcing trailer for outdoor snowmobile races in the winter. But yea anything that involves outdoor entertainment, I can be there...lol.....if hired!
 
Sounds like a pretty unique idea to me. A DJ with a party on wheels....I like it!

Very intriuging!
 
I seen that one too, but very very spendy!!

Drop the price by 8,000 and we have a deal ??


My trailer aint nuttin fancy, but at the very least it will serve its purpose!

Wow, I just read the push button set up! WOW WOW WOW!! :sqeek:
 
I didnt want to start a new thread on the same topic!

My trailer friggin rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I had a friend photoshop the trailer, and I brought the idea around to several local towns, and THAAY LIIIIKE IT A LOT!!!


One bar owner said, lock your prices with me for three years, and I will book twice a year! I'm like...."oh yea, its on!!"

I booked 6 for sures, and 2 maybes! I didnt even get to the south of here!! I am so happy with the results, I just wished I'd charged more!

The same day as that happened, I booked another wedding!

Thats a $5500 day for me!! That certainly pays for the speakers/lights/ and upgrades on the trailer! If I book 5 more events, I will already start seeing the green!! This is absolutely awesome!!!!!!!!!

So not only will I be making more money, I'll own a $8000 setup!! What a steal!!!!!!! I think my business ideas are working out just fine and dandy! Still one year in the biz, and I am achieving leaps and bounds!!!!!

So, I am not trying to brag, but I want to honor my idea with a "YAY"

I didnt think the idea would go that fast! I thought maybe like 3 this year, and more next year! This is when a guy really understands where he is susposed to be in life!

Well, only a few more weeks until I can finish the trailer, and then more advertising! The trailer has definitely became a party revolution in my area! No one has anything like it for 100s of miles! I must also add, the places that are hiring me, have been used to paying $3000+ for live bands! So they are saving money, and I'm getting the scraps this year!

Next year I can see doubling my price, and doing just as good! This rocks!!!!!

Your bud,

Its not exactly a new Idea the local radio station here had one on the go about 20 years ago. All the gear was in lockdown cases inside the trailer and the speakers were built in. They did remote broadcasts over the summer for a few years. It was designed to look like a big boom-box

But it is a great idea especially if you are the only one in your market with one best of luck Adam

Ill take a look around I might have an old pic of the radio stations setup
 
I recant my remarks............

I have seen djs run off trailers.....but I have never seen an extensive setup as I will have!! I do know there have been other djs who have done this, but i have never really searched for pics yet!

But in my area...............YES IT IS A REVOLUTION!! FOR CRYING OUT LOUD I LIVE IN THE STICKS!!!! YEE HAW!!!


(Yee haw) we just learnt that phrase!

lol
 
The latest!

After several cold weeks, I finally got to "dig in" on my project!


So I barely get the hammer, and tools in the trailer....and my phone rings.....


It was another bar owner wanting to maybe book me for memorial night! Sunday night.....YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

I already had my chairs, tables, and tents rented out....so yes!!!!!!!!!


So I told him that, and he was like...."Thats alright.....we just need some outdoor entertainment"....whats your prices!

So that was that little extra push to get the trailer done sooner!


i started out by myself, and I was struggling....but then my dad came out, and we got er all figured out!

He shot down some of my "cool" ideas, and his ideas were more "rational" and "practical!"

So he shot down some of my bubbles, but it still is going to work.

I will be re-paneling the inside, and re-wiring the inside....I will paint the inside and outside, as soon as the weather gets about 70F!

I am stoked......

I found out, we are getting called back to work next week...probably, and that I still get to keep my current job! Due to lay offs (permanent) I wasnt sure how this would work out for me....but it didnt affect me!

I will definitely take pictures throughout the process, and post them as soon as I can! I will kinda do a before/after thingy to show how interesting this will be!

I hate work.....but everytime I start "working" on the trailer, I can feel how "exciting" it is to having something cool like this! Its gonna be a blast!

Well thats all for now....I'm hungry! First time I worked all winter....:sqbiggrin:
