Florida Housing Coalition is one of my favorite corporate clients– I still remember the first party I did with Rue. It was an all-night celebration! This year was no different. Hosted at the Rosen Shingle Creek, I enjoyed seeing many familiar faces as well as being invited to enjoy Rosen’s A-grade food! Check out some amazing pics and video below!
A Premier Entertainment has officially become the newest Haines City Chamber of Commerce Member! We provided sound reinforcement services for their annual Pig Roast… a very large fundraiser.
The elegant BOSE sound system disappeared in plain sight while offering ample sound for a crowd of over 400! Many speeches were done b y Florida politicians, including Adam Putnam.
The event was held at Haines City’s Lake Eva community center… this building is GORGEOUS!!!
I look forward to a productive membership with the HCCoC!!!
Immediately following Rich & Melissa’s reception, Pete and I set up sound and video for Safe Harbor’s summit in the hotel room right next door.
Through a scheduling hiccup (no fault of us or the Hilton), the cocktail hour for Safe Harbor was bumped up an hour early. This means that as soon as Rich & Melissa’s reception was over, the next event began! No problem– we made it work. The Hilton’s phenomenal staff rotated rooms at lightning speeds while our cocktail hour sound system was wirelessly linked to my laptop. This means music played while the equipment was moved over.
Partnered with KC Photography, our A/V division (APE – Pro! @ FLProDJ.com) provided crystal clear sound through our BOSE sound system, as well as a 7 foot wide video screen that was visible with ALL the lights on, thanks to a super-bright REAR-PROJECTION monitor.
As guests had dinner, they enjoyed photos from their golf tournament shot earlier that day. Once the photos played twice, the newest table and group shots done by KC Photography appeared on the big screen.
Our videographer, Tim Hicklin, documented comments from every investor and took some great footage of the keynote speech by author G. Edward Griffin (Creature from Jekyll Island). The line-array nature of the BOSE sound system ensured no feedback or audio dropouts would embarrass Mr. Griffin while the room was filled evenly with sound.

This is APE – Pro!’s second year doing a turnkey solution for JW Mitchell High’s awards ceremony titled Night of Excellence. This time we brought out the 14′ screen instead of the 20′ screen for space reasons.
Check out some sweet photos and a quick video clip below!
Package Chosen: Keynote System – Medium
What a fun group! I made the following video nice and short because I got to play music I may never play again.. at least in this market!
This was the Realtor’s Ball at the Chateau Elán in Sebring, Fl.
I love working there– the staff is amazing and they helped me take this party to a new level. They had an MC who hosted the awards night– he and I had fun ragging on each other… he with his witty banter and myself with music and movie drops. The crowd had a blast! I really wish I shot a video of that part.

McKesson chose Tigertown (Detroit Tiger’s training stadium) in Lakeland, FL…. the only problem is that it’s an empty, metal hangar. How the heck can you beautify this place?
With the right vendors. That’s how. 
Enter Joette of Party People (http://partypeople.homestead.com) with her AMAZING balloon sculptures. Instead of boring you with text, I have supplied plenty of photos and video!
Our next step in transforming the hangar was lighting. They didn’t opt for uplighting, except in the Balloon Tunnel and entrance room.
We used a two-column setup with LEDs that flooded the room with blue (it was a Winter Wonderland theme) with moving head lights that projected snowflakes on the dance floor.
The balloon arch surrounding the floor absorbed the lights and was bursting with color!
Enjoy some great pics and video below!

In case I haven’t told you: I LOVE Eaglebrooke. Their food is FANTASTIC! I was excited to hear that Trans-Phos chose this location.
The evening started with guests mingling. It was a small crowd of 40+ people, but you could tell they were here to party. Neil (the gentleman who helped put this all together) was going to use Eaglebrooke’s beautiful screen to hook his laptop up to in order to show a special slideshow. Unfortunately, his laptop did not have the proper hookups. Luckily, he had a Blu-Ray player which played photo CDs… unfortunately, the CD was not a photo CD as it was created into a VCD (Video CD).
I offered to step in. Using my Mac laptop (usually my backup), I played their slideshow on LOOP for the entire evening.
*whew* that’s glitch was avoided easily.
Other than that it was a fun party. They LOVED disco and slow songs. I think I played more slow songs this evening than I’ve ever done in 4 hours. At the end of the night, I played the Clash’s “Should I Stay or Should I Go” for everyone to exit out to. THEY KEPT DANCING!
Delores, a big dancer of the evening, asked me if I could sneak in Shake Rattle and Roll. I told her I couldn’t as I was already shut down. She was disappointed, but took the time to compliment me on my music selections and wished me in for next year. What can I say? I’m a sucker for flattery. I unhooked my Mac (my main rig was powered off) from the TV and played her request. Her eyes lit up and she ran to the floor to dance.
EVERYONE CAME RIGHT BACK IN! WOW! I decided to do one more song and did “Nothing But a Hound Dog”… the place erupted.
I left it at that and got a round of applause.. Sweet!!
This was a real appreciative group. Neil gave me a very nice set of thank you bills… always appreciated!

E-Stone chose to have their party at one of the prettiest locations in Sebring, FL: 4 Points Sheraton – Chateau Elan. Alyse, the coordinator, did a beautiful job setting up the room to create a festive ambience while leaving enough room for almost 200 guests.
Located next to the Race Track, I am always greeted by the sight of what real machinery looks like.
The crowd consisted of Hispanics, Italians, rock n rollers, 80s-babies, x-genners, a wild crowd from Miami, and Santa. Yes, Santa. Yes, this was one of those real “play a little bit of everything” kind of gigs.
Check out the photos below for some photos and video.
Happy Birthday to me!
Not much to say here… I’ve done Progress Energy before last year and the highlight of the evening wasn’t the dancing– it was the gift exchange. Let’s just say the humor was everywhere. I had to crop some stuff out of the video. 
Enjoy some pics and a new video!
I DJed their party at the Cleveland Heights Golf & Country Club in Lakeland. I ate the grouper and it was DELICIOUS!!!
