This show was so much fun! An American Idol spin with the guests singing Karaoke, ok so far no big deal, I've been doing parties like that since the Kelly Clarkson days of Idol. This show was different, it was on the main stage at The Grove of Anaheim. A 1500 seat theatre adjacent to Angel Stadium in Anaheim that is complete with a full stage, Pro Sound array and full stage lighting rig. This stage has seen an amazing list of performers, Los Lonely Boys, 3OH!3, Sinbad the Comedian, Jordin Sparks the Go-go's, Snoop Dogg and Three Dog Night. I only missed Willie Nelson and Jefferson Starship by a few days.
There were only about 800 people in the group but seating for Dinner service made the room look full. The doors opened at 7 and the show began at 8 with me as the Emcee introducing Paula and Simon. Well, not the real Paula or Simon, but two look alikes from Hollywood that were excellent at the delivery. Our Paula was a little Ditzy and liked almost everyone, while our Simon was true to form and a little rough on some of the singing groups and I got to play Ryan for the evening. The Karaoke was a HUGE hit we had more singers than we had time to get them on stage.
I love playing real music venues and walking in the same halls and sitting the same dressing room as amazing artists like Al Green. I just have to hire someone to come get me just before the show and say "They're ready for you on stage Mr Bezy."

Dj & Dancing - Wedding at The Lodge at Torrey Pines
I recently DJ'd a really fun wedding at the Lodge, in the Ballroom overlooking the 18th green of Torrey Pines South Golf Course. Uplighting and a wonderful dinner really set the tone for the party. Dinner took awhile to serve all of the courses so when it finished the guests were ready to dance.
The Lodge at Torrey Pines always makes me feel like I'm in a secluded 5 Star resort, which I guess it sort of is. But its so quiet around the grounds, even when the golfers are next door at the course. Inside it's a very luxurious look and feel, everything from the beautiful wood accented walls to the top of the line service by their staff.

DJ - Wedding at Villa Amore
A great wedding for some long time clients and friends that I've known for years. The Villa Amore is an estate in Temecula tucked in amongst the vineyards. The grounds of the Estate are really beautiful and a perfect setting for a wedding ceremony. The Ceremony and Dinner were in the courtyard and the dancing was on the outdoor patio on the opposite side of the property to help contain the noise for the surrounding properties.

BizBash - LA
BIZBASH was fantastic, a great opening keynote speaker Mindy Weiss the Amazing wedding planner to the Stars. Volt! The Official BizBash after party was great. It was the creative vision of many but Jack Weiner and Anthony Griffin of kool. Party Rentals were the driving force behind the event. The after party was held in the Penthouse of Pacific Electric Lofts in downtown LA, which is a beautiful space but without furniture it was really just an empty box. kool. Party Rentals took care of that with their signature LED lit furniture. Dining Tables, Cocktail Tables, decorative 20 foot tall columns and even a white bed floating on an LED cloud, it really seems like their is no end to the magic that they can bring to an event.
I made a few laps around the exhibit floor just after the keynote session and then headed off to prepare for THE After Party of the year. It was hard to tell how many attendees we had, the space was so big that it was hard to see everyone at once. I Video DJ'd some light house music to give it that kool loungy, club vibe. The videos were a big hit and the food and drinks were amazing too. I met a lot of great special event industry professionals and have already had some talks about performing for some of their events later this year.

DJ at Padres Home Opener
I was lucky enough to get to play the Omni Premiere Club in Petco Park on April 12th, for the Padres home opener just before the first pitch. I also provided uplighting and 2 Padres Gobos for another party held in the Candy Factory near the "Park in the Park". Kool Party Rentals brought in some amazing white leather furniture with their glowing LED and acryllic tables. The room looked amazing. Due to MLB and Padres logo use requirements I can't share any pictures but it was really impressive. It was a lot of fun to be in Petco park setting up before the crowds, Colbie Caillat sang the National Anthem that day, about 3 hours before game time she went to the field for a sound check with her guitarist, sang the whole national anthem and then "Bubbly" from start to finish and it sounded as good as it does on the youtube link below.

Karaoke at the House of Blues San Diego
Provided Deluxe Karaoke at the House of Blues in San Diego last week complete with Audio Recordings of each singer as a take home. 200+ guests filled the HOB with a Dance DJ in the main room and the Karaoke Lounge in the adjacent room. It took about about 30 minutes for the group to warm up to the idea but once they got started they sang for 4.5 hours straight. For More information on having Karaoke at your party, go to the Mobile Music Plus website
