One more bridal show!

I just signed on to take part in another bridal show - it’s happening on Sunday, January 27th at White’s Of Westport from Noon to 5, and it’s sponsored by Fun 107. I used to participate in this show on a regular basis when I worked in radio, but I took the last few [...]

Here’s to a great 2008!

It’s been a pretty busy time for me. I’m gearing up for my first events of the new year coming up this weekend, plus Sunday’s bridal show at the Hawthorne Country Club. So, I spent most of today testing my equipment and taking care of some things that I wanted to improve on [...]

Some recent reviews…

A lot of my blog posts are about the wedding receptions that I’ve entertained at in the past few months, so I decided to ask those recent newlyweds what they thought of my work. The survey was conducted through WeddingWire, one of my favorite new websites and a great resource for brides and grooms-to-be. [...]

Another 2008 Bridal Show!

I just received my invitation to take part in the 2008 Rachel’s Lakeside Bridal Fair, so I’m happy to report that I’ll be there for my fourth consecutive year. It’s a fun show, with a continuous fashion show and plenty of prize giveaways. The 2008 show will be taking place on February 24th, [...]

Death of the class reunion?

Last week I had two cancellations - both were class reunions scheduled for Thanksgiving weekend, and both were cancelled due to lack of interest. For whatever reason, people in Middleboro and Franklin who graduated in 1997 just aren’t ready to go back and see their old classmates. Additionally, I checked with some of [...]

Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!

I made some upgrades to my blog this week, some noticeable (a nice new blue design) and some not-so-noticeable (a software upgrade). Everything seems to be running smoothly so far, but if for some reason you’re having trouble accessing or reading this blog, please contact me. Thanks!

Remembering John Allo, 1960-2007

I want to take a moment to mention John Allo, a friend and fellow DJ who passed away on Sunday. I had known John for a number of years - we met at the John Carver Inn in Plymouth when I was packing up from an afternoon wedding and he was getting ready for [...]

Brides: Mark your calendars!

Most of this area’s bridal shows take place during the winter months, and I’m planning to take part in a few of them. First on the calendar for 2008 is the Hawthorne Country Club’s annual show, on January 6th from Noon to 3. This is a great show, featuring some of Southeastern [...]

Downtime? Not quite…

I had last weekend off - it was much deserved after a very busy summer season. Julie & I went into Boston on Friday night to see Blue Man Group, and it was a lot of fun, then we spent Saturday and Sunday working on our house and (still) getting everything in its’ place. [...]

A word about wedding ceremonies.

Because more couples are opting to have their wedding ceremonies right at their reception venues these days, I’ve been providing music for lots of wedding ceremonies more frequently than ever.  So often, in fact, that I recently redesigned the sound system that I use for such occasions.  I’ll talk more about that in a moment.  First, let’s [...]
