FAQ
Yes… to the highest degree! There are all levels of sound equipment even at the professional level. I use the very top of the line which is considered “concert quality”, and in fact I have an entire page dedicated to sound that you can view here: Great Sound… How important is it anyway?
I am a director for the Tucson Wedding Network and a member of both the National and local chapters of the American Disc Jockey Association.
I always take requests, both during and in advance… but I only play them if they are appropriate for the event I am performing at. Your guests can also visit MakeYourRequest.com where they can browse my music and make requests online.
I typically setup for most events 4 to 5 hours before start time. I like to have all sounds checks done prior to guest arrival, some final practice and rehearsal time, and perhaps even a little time to help my clients with any last minute preparation details. This also gives me time to relax, focus and change modes from “roadie” to “performer” so I will be mentally prepared to “rock the house”.
Quite simply… because I cannot mass produce or even replicate what I do as both a DJ and entertainer! Unfortunately there is no way to guarantee top quality service and performance by using part-time DJ’s whose primary goal would be making a few extra bucks on the weekend, and I cannot in good conscience allow your wedding or event to be a “practice ground” for an inexperienced DJ.
Knock on wood… in my entire career I have never missed or even been late for a wedding. However, if something should happen I am fortunate to have among my friends some of Tucson’s Top DJ’s in which we have an agreement among us to help each other out should something prevent our performance.
The truth is I could be the very best DJ in the entire world, and yet in my long DJ career not once has a guest ever came to the wedding in order to see me. So to answer your question… yes, I am very interactive when interaction is needed, however, I never forget that your yours guests came to see you and that you are and should be the stars of the show.
I am so glad that you asked! As a true Video Jockey this is my specialty. Not only do I have thousands of music videos, but I mix them with the same precision that I mix music. I also create very unique and personalized montages, trivia, backgrounds, etc. You can see a few samples of just a few of the things that I do with video on my Wedding Magic page. If you have an idea for something that you don’t see here, or perhaps have never seen anywhere, please contact me as I love the challenge of something new.
