WHERE THE HELL ARE THE SPICE GIRLS?

Watching Backstreet Boys and New Kids on the Block live on the American Music Awards right now. There is something wrong about 30 something white guys lip synching to each other while gyrating around an elevated stage. Whenever I play them in the future...I'll have that horrible image in my mind.

Something even more wrong....Justin Bieber! I can just imagine the angst among Katy Perry and Lady Gaga who had 8 number one hits among them. This is kind of funny considering I've played music live in front of a couple thousand people this year and haven't played one Justin Bieber song. How can he be the artist of the year? I guess I just don't play tunes for enough 14 year old girls.

We start our busy Christmas season next Saturday at the CFB Esquimalt Wardroom and roll from there. 6 shows and then New Years Eve at the Air Force Base in Comox. I guess this is as close as we will ever get to 'going on the road with the band....'

'til next time.....

My first blog.....13 Nov 08

Hi everyone. I'm updating my site and thought a play-by-play might be interesting. I've been DJ'ing for about 17 years off and on as I couldn't decide what I really wanted to do when I grew up. Now I know....so I re-purchased some brand spanking new sound and lighting equipment last spring, and voila! Here I am...ready to rock your world and make your party the talk of the town. Hiring a licensed DJ for any event makes sense when it comes to value for money. It allows you to forget about the entertainment while you and your guests can focus on having a great time, toe tapping and twistin' the night away.

It was a very busy summer performing for weddings from Victoria to Gold River to Youbou. I even managed to get nine holes in before the show in Gold River. A great time with some great people. I enjoy the variety that comes with meeting and performing for different crowds in different places. Hotels are great but nothing beats a backyard reception for memory making. I am in the process of semi-retiring from the Navy and am looking forward to meeting lots of great people while doing something I love.

PS: I'm also a Toronto Maple Leaf fan but don't hold that against me. At least it shows that I'm consistent!
