A Day at the Beach

A day at the Beach with WSCA in March, we spent all day with the Water Safety Congress of America at the Catamaran Resort on Mission Bay. They were hosting an educational outing for their conference that involved the San Diego Lifeguard, US Coast Guard, San Diego Police and Navy Seals. Since some of their education was best suited to take place while on water, we brought out top of the line audio and microphone equipment so that not only could the group on the beach hear the actors as they acted out their skits out on the boats, those actors could hear everything the Emcee said from the beach as well.

Disco Themed Video DJ Party at Maderas

This was like an explosion of color! This Annual corporate party selects a theme each year and the attendees go all out, dressing in costume and acting in character - it was a lot of fun.


I Video DJ'd all Disco for the first 4 hours (yes, I have that much Disco on DVD)and they were INTO IT. maybe it was the wigs but no matter they were having a great time. The last hour as the planning committee and I planned we started to break out of the disco theme and give them some 80s and top 40 which by that time of night they were ready for and only added to the excitement.
My team brought in an 8 foot screen for the videos, plenty of dance and stage lights, 8 hot pink uplights and a disco ball - because let's face it what's a disco party if there's no disco ball!

Sorry for the lack of Recent updates!

I'm sorry to report that my cool little video camera that allowed me to give you a quick glimpse of those parties is no longer with us. I don't know if i misplaced it or if someone decided they liked it more than I do.

For now I guess we'll have to settle for good old fashioned Text updates and blogposts...how boring. I'll try to link youtube clips to some of the bigger events if I can find them online.

Here are a couple to get you going


San Diego Block Party: Early January I Video DJ'd for 2500 people from the Special Event Industry. I find that more and more, when its time to impress those that are usually behind the scenes and in-the-know like this group was, I get the call quite often for Video DJ because it's just so amazing. My video library is over 18,000 now and it covers to name a few: Frank Sinatra, Temptations, James Brown, Bee Gees, Madonna, Michael Jackson and of course all of today hits. This event was incredible, 4 City blocks with Food, Audio and Video Throughout.





The guys from Innovative Presentations did a great job placing 12 video screens around the 4 block area including the 12 foot screen behind me and a 15 ft screen on a rooftop on 5th avenue. I played for about 90 minutes and had the place jumping until I passed it off for the main stage and Recording Group - Kool & the Gang took the main stage.

This video isn't of me but someone else caught a little of Kool & the Gang on stage

Wedding at Scripps Seaside Forum

Late fall 2011 I DJ'd a wedding and then the reception right afterward at the Seaside Forum. The wedding went perfectly, they were from Hawaii so the music choices for the wedding were mostly Hawaiian. The Bride is a Dance Music Recording Artist and normally when I have clients like that I try to avoid playing their music during the event, mainly just because its a little weird. But this one wasn't like that, she was perfectly fine with it. As a matter of fact, at first she gave me the track titles and didn't even tell me they were her tracks.

It was kind of a dance music crowd and pretty much the entire group recognized, got up, danced and sang along when I played the first 2 of her songs. By the time I played the 3rd song I honestly think I had worn them out. They danced solid for about 2 hours and were still dancing but I think they were pretty out of gas at that point.

December Wedding

I'll try to post more on this wedding later but I wanted to get this video posted ASAP. Joe Park is an awesome videographer, one of the things I like best is that you can have him create a teaser video for the wedding. Since the full Wedding Video takes weeks and weeks to edit in some cases, the teaser video just shows some of the highlights at a quick glimpse. As usual, he hit another homer with this one from Dec 3rd.

Corporate Party at Fox Sports Grill in San Diego at Hilton Bay Front

This group came in for a few days, one of their nights was a party at Fox Sports Grill. It didn't take them long to get out on the dancefloor. Fox Sports Grill is a great place for a Corporate Party, plenty of space, night near the bay, indoor and outdoor mixed seating and plenty of video screens for sports or Video DJ would be amazing...

Baby Bash & Frankie J Live at UCHS in San Diego

Today we provided sound for Baby Bash to play a concert for University City High School, the students there won the concert in a Z-90 contest. This is the 3rd show I've done with Bash and this time he brought Frankie J with him.


These guys are both pros, nothing like the egos and attitudes that I've encountered with some other big names. You can see that they are just happy to be there and doing what they love to do. Even though the show was only 29 minutes long, I think they actually played about 35. But then they both stayed and did meet & greet/Photo and Autographs for close to an hour.... C'mon who else does that? That's why Bash is one of my favorites to work with, Like I said, he's a pro.
Thank you to my team (Brad & Matt) that helped me pull off the show.
