Pool Party - The Grande at the Galleria

7/25/09. This morning I grabbed the Feel The Beat Cash Machine and head over towards the Galleria. Today's party was at The Grande at the Galleria in Hoover. The staff was holding a lease renewal party and every resident who renewed their lease or folks starting a lease got to get inside the Feel The Beat Cash Machine. They gave away over a thousand dollars off of next month's rent and fed everyone as well. Also, the pary went so well that they even kept me and hour and half over time.

Pool Party - Highland Bluffs

7/24/09. This afternoon I made my triumphant return to Highland Bluffs to do their pool party. I did this event last which was organized by an outside source but they liked my work so much that they had to have me back on their own dime. Joy and the staff at Highland Bluffs really stepped it up a notch this year. I think they had 3 times the turnout of last years event. They even had some prizes to give away too. This was a very enjoyable event. It's nice when people seem genuinely happy for me to be there. Thanks Joy and everybody at Highland Bluffs for giving me such a wonderful experience again.

Daniel & Ford's Birthday Party

7/23/09. Tonight my services were need at the Bluff Park Community Center in Hoover for Daniel and Ford's birthday bash. This is the 3rd time I've got to perfom for these kids. This gig came of a referral from LaTanya Dobbs (thanks LaTanya). The kids had a great time and I think Daniel and Ford got some money out of the whole deal, so all in all this party was a success.

Roberts / Sherman Reception

7/18/09. Tonight it was back to the Sonnett House in Leeds for Lauren and Casey's wedding reception. I can tell that they spared no expense with this holy union. They had musicians for every aspect of the ceremony. They hired the Wynfrey's catering staff and of coarse they hired me. After the ceremony it took about an hour and a half to do their introductions. Since they hired a wedding planner I was not able to do my job to its fullest potential. I really do not like it when someone else is in charge of my show. When things drag and don't go as planned it looks like I had something to do with it, or I am unprofessional or something like that. But anyway, the guest had a great time. Lauren and Casey left 45 minutes before the event was over and so did the wedding planner. After that, the remaining guest and I had one heck of a throw down. It's just sad that Lauren and Casey couldn't have been there for it. But that wasn't my fault. I was just doing what I was told.

Pool Party - Barrington On The Green

7/18/09. This morning I packed up my gear and went down to Barrington On The Greem in B'Ham. Very relaxed type of pool party. They supplied their residents with 30 Pizzas unlimited soda and a keg of beer. Oh yeah, they also gave me 20 prizes to give away from squirt guns to $50 gift cards. But the real kicker was that they gave away a free months rent to a lucky resident. And Jason was our winner. Congrats Jason.

Tommy Fancher's Birthday Party

7/16/09. Tonight I did the country lane stroll over to Wilsonville, AL for Tommy Fancher's birthday party. Tommy is a seasoned war vet who served under the President. So when it was time to throw him a birthday party, the entertainment should be nothing less than Feel The Beat. Tommy's sister, Della was the one who organized this party. She put together one heck of a get together. From the navy theme to the food to the entertainment. we also honored and recognized all of the war vets that were present from all branches of the military. This was very cool because I got to see and meet some of the great men who served our country in the Korean and Vietnam wars. These were the men that helped to give us all the freedoms that we still enjoy today. The whole evening was topped off with a giant sparkler display that lit up the night sky, all to the tune of "God Bless America." Happy Birthday Papa Tom. We salute you.

Larry and Carol Martin's 50th Anniversary

7/11/09. Tonight I added a new state to my performance list. The almost great state of Mississippi. This was my first time to Ackerman and what a better occasion than for Larry and Carol's 50th wedding anniversary? They incorporated a 50's theme for this party and did it right. From the food to the 1959 Ford Fairlane. I only hope that one day I might get to celebrate my 50th wedding anniversary, I just have to get married and live at least 50 more years. Well, who knows what with the advancements in medical science. Anyway Super Congratulations to you Larry and Carol. You are an inspiration to us all.

What % of success of your event would you attribute to the Entertainment supplied by Feel The Beat?
Was there any part of our services you were particularly pleased with?
Joe's attitude, willingness to please, and his ability to read the crowd was spectacular! My entire family befriended him by the time the party was over and enjoyed him very much. My parents also greatly appreciated him working so hard to play the songs they chose. It made a big difference!On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being best), how would you rank your Feel The Beat Entertainment disc jockey?
Was the price you paid a good value?
If you were going to recommend us to someone, what would you say? (testimonial)
We've been to 4 events where Joe was the DJ and he's always great. We've been to many other events where DJ's have been furnished by other companies and found that a DJ can't be underestimated. I recently returned from my 20th High School reunion where a different company was used to play 80's music. The music should have been a big part of the party, yet the DJ was totally not in tune with what our class listened to at the time, therefore we were disappointed knowing it could have been so much better. I didn't book this DJ, but wish I had been in charge! I would have known who to call!

Can we use you as a reference?

Yes No
