Keedy / Biedron Wedding

3/8/11. Yeah if you noticed this is my own Wedding. After 5 years of courting the Lovely Laura Beth Keedy, we made it official in Fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada. We had such an amazing time and met a bunch of wonderful people. The chapel we got married in even sent out a live web cast, so everyone who was not able to attend go to see everything via the web. What a wonderful thing it is to be alive in 2011. The Reception was amazing. We walked up and down the strip and had a band and a DJ. Remember anything worth doing, is worth doing right.

Scalisi / Danforah Reception

6/12/10. Tonight was Liz and Joey Wedding Reception at the Hoover Country Club. This was the third ethic wedding in a month for me. After doing and Indian and Puerto Rican wedding, tonight it was Middle Eastern. Another night with a CD full of song I don't know and words I don't understand but, another fire burning dance floor night. Liz and joey are really a cute couple and after calming Liz down few times during our Pre-Event Meeting, she was ready to let go and leave to professionals to do their jobs. (side note: I hate using the word "Professional". If someone has to tell you they are professional, they are not.) The party was off the "(insert cliche here)". People danced and sang all night. We even had a special guest sing the Italian version of "Lazy Mary". Good Stuff. I even got to work with Gretchen and Buddy of Gretchen B. Photography. Congrats Liz and Joey. Have fun in St. Lucia.

Sauer / Schatz Reception

6/5/10. Tonight I headed over to Vizzini Farms Winery for Jeremy and Megan's Wedding Reception. Right before the ceremony started the rain came down in full force for about 5 minutes and then the skies were clear for the rest of the evening. This meant that everything was suppose to happen with no problems, and there weren't. Jeremy and Megan had guest from all over. New York, California, NC and even Puerto Rico. This means there was a lot of diversity in music selections. Everything from Reggae to rock to country and of course Latin. Everyone was burning up the dance floor all night. And, thanks to the rain it was so humid that I even had to come out of my Monkey suit. Awesome party! Great People and a Wonderful Time.

Magic City Brew Fest

6/4/10. Tonight I grab the Cool Shots Photo Booth and headed down to the Annual Magic City Brew Fest. This event was a ton a fun and not just because of all the free food and beer. The Great people at the Good People Brewing Company had us giving out great keep-sake photo's for everyone who tried their beer. This was really a mad house for all 3 hour of the event. We even had to have security make everyone leave after the Event was over. What a Rager! Thanks Good People and party on Magic City.

Bryan / Freeman Reception

5/29/10. Tonight was Bryan and Miranda's Wedding and Reception. This was my first time at Our Lady of The Valley in Pelham. This venue is amazing. As soon as walked in I had to walk out to the van and get more lights because there were so many awesome lighting possibilities in this room. Accented I'm sure by the wonderful photography of Jim Little Photography. Anyways, this was a great Wedding Reception. They had a very lively bunch and I got to play some songs I usually would at a reception(good Techno Set). Congrats David and Miranda. Thanks for letting me be a part of your very special day.

Samantha's Sweet 16

5/28/10. Tonight I was off to the Wynfrey for Samantha's Super Sweet 16 party. Samantha was one of the most polite, well spoken, out going teenagers I have ever met. I can see why her parents went through so much trouble to throw her an amazing sweet 16 party. I was there, of course, to keep everyone dancing and having a great time along with the Cool Shots Photo Booth. This was a great party. I had just as much fun as everyone who attended. Congrats Sam! Thanks for having me.

Wade / Luhar Wedding Reception

5/22/10. Today was Jessica and Rushi's wedding and reception. She's from Alabama, he's from India and they both live in London. That can make it very difficult planning a wedding. It's a good thing they employed the services of ace wedding planner Jackie Gaut of Dana's Floral Design & Weddings. This outdoor wedding took place at The Elms in Coosada, AL. I had to play a little of everything being that there were guest from all around the world attending. Thanks to Jessica and Rushi for suppling me with some music that had our multi-cultural crowd jumping all night long.

Liberty Park Middle School Dance

5/21/10. This afternoon the lovely Beth Keedy and I took the Cool Shots Photobooth to Liberty Park for their annual end of year dance they have for their 6th graders about to go to Junior High. This was one excellent group of kids. Well Behaved, polite and ready to party. |Thanks for the great time kids and good luck next year.

UConn New Years Eve Party

12/31/09. Tonight was New Years Eve. The biggest drinking day of the year, or what I like to call Amateur Night. With that said I DJ'd one kick butt non-alcoholic party, as I got to ring in the New Year with University of Connecticut's Marching Band. The group had just gotten into town for the PapaJohns.com Bowl at Legion Field. For a bunch of non-drinking (I think) band kids they really knew how to throw down. We even got ring in the New Year twice because they wanted to do it EST. Go figure. Anyway, thanks for the wonderful time guys. Go Huskies!

Scott / Wasyluka Reception

9/26/09. Tonight I was back at the Fabulous Wynfrey Hotel in Hoover, AL for Amy and Tim's wedding reception. Amy and Tim are both Lawyers and one of the funniest couple I have got to work with. The reception started jumping as soon as Tim and Amy made their entrances. But Amy dad, Mr. Scott, was the life of the party. He stayed out on the dance floor all night with Amy and Tim. I even had to play the Stanky Legg for Mr. Scott. Apparently it's his ring tone. All in all I have another great party under my belt.

Spain Park High School Homecoming

9/25/09. Tonight was Spain Park's Homecoming. I did this show last year, and it was no where near the amount of excitement that it was this year. I think there was at least twice as many kids there this year, and they stayed all night long. The Homecoming Queen even stayed til the end. But these kids are awesome and I love getting to do their Prom and Homecomings. They have fun, they scream, they sing, they dance and all in all just get wild. Rock On Jags! Congrats for the win on the field and at the dance.

Homecoming For the Home Schooled

9/19/09. I know what your thinking. How can you have a homecoming if you're home schooled? Truth is I don't know either, but this was one great group of kids. They had a lot of fun all night long, which goes to show you that some things just can't be taught in school. Like how to have a good time. I had a great time, the kids had a great time and so did their parents. I will definitely be doing this again next year.

Children's Miracle Network @ Macy's

9/15/09. This afternoon I grabbed my DJ equipment and head back over to Macy's for a charity event for the Children's Miracle Network. They are trying to raise awareness for their new project. Apparently they are encouraging people to have dinner parties to raise money for the network which Macy's will then match. How super nice of them. Hope all goes well. There are many people in need now-a-days, especially with the holidays creeping in.

Giger / Lee Reception

9/12/09. Today was a very special day. Not only was it Emily and Josh's wedding, but it was also my birthday. I usually never work on my birthday but this year I made and exception. The main reason being well, Emily requested me, and I have never been to Louisiana. Oh yeah, I failed to mention that this wedding was 6 hours away. Now after this wedding I have been to 46 different states. Anyway, we had a great time. Emily and Josh were a wonderful couple and their friends and family came to party. They even ordered the Cool Shots Photobooth. They danced and sang and took pictures all night. We even put together the best instant photobooth wedding album to date. They took so many pictures that we ran out of room in the book for all of them. If you're looking for something new and exciting at your reception you should really consider the Cool Shots Photobooth. Congratulations Josh and Emily. Thanks for everything, including the birthday cake you guys got me. That was awesome.

Bowser / LaFon Reception

9/5/09. Tonight was the first day of college football and Noah and Alicia's wedding reception. Having your wedding in the fall in Alabama can be tragic if not planned well. In Alabama, fall weddings are optional because football is way more important. The next three months will set the mood of the entire state for the whole year. So, in order to combat this, Noah and Alicia did the right thing and had a TV with the game on. If this is not a part of your vision for your wedding reception then you need to get married in the off season. I did a wedding last year during the Alabama / Georgia game and only 40 out of 150 guest showed up. It's not that there friends and family didn't want to be there, It's just easier to send a gift and stay at home to watch the game. Anyway, we had a wonderful time. I got to play music that I like. Phish, Panic, Grateful Dead, moe. Which is the music they wanted. This was the first wedding where I got to bust out a Mike's Groove and a Tweezer Reprise. Fun, fun, fun. Also, the Feel The Beat Light Design made the conference center at the Carraway-Davie House look phenomenal. Thanks Noah and Alicia for letting me be a part of your special day. I hope you guys have fun in Greece. Also thanks to Randi Funderburg for refering me.

Tailgate Party - Galleria Woods

9/4/09. This afternoon I grabbed the Feel The Beat Cash Machine and headed over to Hoover for the Galleria Woods assisted living communities 2009 Tailgating Kick-off. Everyone was encouraged to wear the favorite colleges colors to the barbecue. I was joined by the Hoover High School Band and Cheerleaders who were there to help bring out the football festivities. They did a few numbers and routines followed by Cash Machine, where we gave a lucky resident some money off of there rent and an associate a paid day off. Fun, Fun, Fun was had by all and now I'm officially ready for some football. I NEED MORE COWBELL!!!

Karaoke @ Papa Saia's

9/2/09. It's the beginning of another wonderful month of Karaoke at Papa Saia's. If your not here on Wednesday nights, then you need to reevaluate what you're doing with your time. We got great specials on Beer and Wings, plus we got prizes for participation. Come on, get it together and join all the cool kids in Alabaster on Wednesday nights.

Southern Bridal Show @ the BJCC

8/30/09. Today was the years biggest Bridal Show at the BJCC. Feel The Beat was there along side the Cool Shots Photobooth to help future brides get some knowledge on the wedding business. There was an amazing turn out and all in all an awesome show. Many of the cities most reputable vendors were there and as always the best fashion show in the state. Hope all your planning goes well.

McManus / Fill Reception

8/29/09. After leaving Macy's I headed over to the Historic Rucker Place for Emily and Jason's Wedding Reception. These kids were awesome and spared no expense to make sure their friends and family had a great time. They had an awesome buffet complete with shrimp and grits, plus they had a full bar to help loosen everybody up and head out to the dance floor. This party was jumping from the beginning and just when I thought it couldn't get anymore fun... they busted out the double dutch. oh yeah. This was a crazy game of poker. Thanks Jason and Emily. Hope you guys have fun in Mexico.
