Quiet weekend

What a nice treat a free weekend with no gigs, which is lucky as i've got the worst head cold!!
But been very busy with inquiries this week, quite a few for 2011 but also several for weddings over the next couple of months-the one's I cant do I will pass on to a couple of DJ's I know but people really are cutting it fine. I know brides like to get their dresses sorted first but once the venue is booked and confirmed, the evening entertainment should really be sourced and booked as soon as possible.

House Party

I have a house party on Sataurday which is something i'm always a little nervous about as is very difficult to control your working environment. It is easy for the party guests to get to close to my precious & very expensive disco equipment-to spill a pint or fall on a light stand. But this client seems like a really nice bloke & it's his 40th so shouldn't be too wild!!
I've been compilling his playlist all week and it's certainly different-it ranges from Chemical Brothers to Colin Blunstone. I've also been working on our new website so hopefully that will be up and running soon.

Well Christmas has come & gone & the New Year is shaping up to be a very busy one!  Generally the first 3 months can be quiet but this year has been busy.  I've had several 40th birthdays which have been great as the music preference has been mostly 80's & disco and some really great party anthems.... and such lovely clients as well.

Its great on the night of an event to see the dance floor packed but the real 'proof in the pudding' of client satisfaction is when they book you again.  My lovely halloween couple have booked my for their 1st wedding anniversary so I need to start thinking about my fancy dress costume....and I've got a wedding and a 70th booked in the same month by the same family-a real party & kareoke family whose 18th I did for their daugther last year.  So I must be doing something right....
