About

Moved to Milton Florida in Sept 2022
Yes I still have a Kansas Phone w/ Area Code (785) 925-9344...

I've been DJing for over 30 years, and would consider myself a ( Standard DJ ).
I use an All Wireless Professional Sound and Lighting System, that has wireless Speakers, Microphones, Lights, and Video Displays, so no cables running everywhere...

I've got a very large music and karaoke collection, so much so, I usually hear someone say: He's Got My Song

Brief History

I started DJing in 1989 in Seattle, WA with my best friend Dean who did it for a living...
Back then we used Cassette Tape for Private party's, Company party's, and Wedding's…
It was a workout to cue up a song (Fast Forward, Rewind, FF, RW, FF,RW)...
So being a DJ was not on my list to be a full time job, just helping out a friend...

In 1992 we started getting  into compact disc (CD's), and DJing was so much easier...
So, I branched out on my own, for extra income, doing bars, restuartants, resorts, city parks, company parties, class reunions, birthdays, private parties, and yes weddings…

I added Karaoke services, around 2006, when I moved to Kansas to care for Parents, because it was in demand in the area...

I've always enjoyed playing music and watching those memories, of the good times, come over the crowd, when that special song triggers a memory for someone.

(Like)
A smile comes over their face
They start singing along with the song.
They start telling people I haven't heard this song in so long.
They start bringing up memories from their past.
They start tapping their feet.

Just because people aren't dancing, doesn't mean their not enjoying the music.
