Surprise guest for the bride/groom...wedding party were all U.W grads

Last night toward the end of the evening a kareoke dj came up to me and we began a conversation. Everything from why do I still use cds and not computer to what do I do the most of ...which is weddings. He came into the biz after his dad gave it up and has 30,000 songs in is kareoke...

This for me is a milestone....yes my 1,000 post and somehow I felt it needed to be something worthy. So for the last two days I have been thinking and thinking ...it should be profound....it should be stimulating....and then this afternoon it hit me.... I live in Wisconsin...and like many...

For the last two weeks we have done the couples game at one of the venues that I do a great deal of work at, mostly weddings but the bar area had openings and no weddings going on so I booked the game, next week is the last week for it. Now the motel has alot of people that come over plus all...

About all the Christmases past....the very fun memories that to this day just warm my heart...So I would like to share a couple...and then please share a fond favorite Christmas memory of your own. Tradition seem to be that my parents always went to my aunts house to play cards on Christmas...

My reception on Saturday night was great...bride/groom were very happy. The mother of the groom is the assistant to the banquet manager...she was happy and so were all the quests...lots of dancing and plenty of smiles to go around. As we were packing up a couple of the banquet people were...

About 3 weeks ago I met with the bride and groom from last nights wedding for the final planning....actually the only planning meeting....their schedule and mine just never clicked....This show had been booked for about 3 months.... At the meeting they present me with a play list of 77...

This year Ive noticed a pattern starting to develope. One that is getting more profound as we go. I always noticed that around 11:30 some of the family would start picking up decorations. But lately Ive noticed they now are having to clean up the tables. Now our show on Sat they had about 20...

What happened to the little box at the bottom that took us to the different forumns. Do we no longer have it, did it go into hiding or am I being punished for something....naw that cant be it Im a saint.....dont believe me just ask me I'll tell ya...

This last saturday I met with a potential bride/groom. For one hour we sat and talked. In reality I could have said just sign here and they would have without me even going into a sales pitch. The venue manager highly recommends us and even the staff talked to them about us. They also had...

This past weekend I had a free show to do. We recieved a last minute booking from a couple based on the venue reccommending us. But since I was personally booked jungle had to step up to do the job. Not a real problem for him....but what a review already. I talk to Mike aka jungle and during...

Been thinking about posting this as it was one wierd day to say the least. Some of you know that djjungle and I have merged companies. This past Saturday was one of those days where prior committments were in place. Jungles happen to cancel, and since I had this under control he took the night...

We have a couple weddings coming up that the bride/groom feel that many requests will take place. I designed this card to put on tables (with their permission). As people are eating they see the card and fill it out. It allows us to stay ahead of requests and better organize our music for the...

Well Friday and Saturday morning are over and I survived yet another Relay for Life. 12 hour event and I played about 9 of it. I also might add I never played the same song twice. They had many small items to give away so I was doing trivia both for cancer and other things. Now to what...

Some of you may know about this site, some may not. But with events coming up that would require trivia this site really rocks. Have some fun with it but be warned the price section will make you chringe http://www.dmarie.com/timecap/step1.asp

Today I played at the grocery store I work at. Just a fun day for the employees and the customers. Now yes the body doesnt seem to work like it use to and I now have to wear glasses to read, but today I realized just how old I was getting. I played everything from Sinatra to the 80's nothing...

Well I finally got a real picture up for my avatar. So thus the cartoon can now just go to the wall in my office. And yes I only wear black till they come out with something darker, accented by a great red tie. Just thought you would all like to see this ugly mug. And since we are all family...

With everything that has been going on I forgot to wish djjungle a Happy Birthday, even though it was last Friday. So jungle ole buddy I owe you a birthday lunch.:wnotworthy:

Two weeks ago we got a last moment booking for last night April 21st. A college sororiety. About a 180 people. The dance started about 8pm and was really rocking, then about 9pm half the crowd left. By 9:30pm the only ones left were the bartender, 2 staff and my partner and I. Where did they go...

As djs we tend to experience many things and see many things, my show Saturday was a first. First some background, about a year ago I sat down with this couple to sign a contract. They made it clear that this was thier wedding day, which I assured them that it was no problem. Fast forward to a...

Today I did a 5 hour customer appreciation show at the grocery store. As is the case when Ive done a few of these in the past I allowed myself to talk to customers. An old timer came in today that I havent seen in a while so we began to chat and yup I almost lost track of the time of the song...

After battling the flu all week I was going to attempt to do a father/daughter dance tonight by myself. Lucky for me my partner was free and helped out, it was a fun but rough 2 hours. Having never done one of these and this being the first that the sponsor had ever done they left it in our...
