High-flying wedding reception hall.
Last week I had a great time participating in a wedding professionals open house at the American Airlines C.R. Smith Museum. The museum is an unusual place to have a wedding reception and can accommodate anything from small parties up to hundreds of guests. It is also available for private parties, corporate events, socials, fund […]
It’s a Yoga Party on the Patio!!!
I love helping with sound and DJ-ing the fun (and mellow) parties at The Mat yoga studio in Richardson. This coming Friday is the quarterly “Karma Yoga Happy Hour”. After the 6:30pm class, join us on the patio for food, wine, and music… always a blast with fantastic friends. I will also be providing sound […]
I danced with Cinderella (and Snow White too).
If you have read about me and know a bit of my history as a DJ & MC, you know that I have been part of thousands of events; hundreds of weddings over the years, lots of birthdays, school dances, etc. But nothing gets me emotional like a Daddy Daughter Dance. I always have a few […]
25th Anniversary as a DJ & MC!
This year is my 25th year working as a DJ & MC. I started as a teenager (don’t do the math, I’m still really young!) and somehow just kept on going. Everybody has to start somewhere and thankfully someone snapped this photo of me at my very first gig in 1986 right here in North […]
There is nothing like a Junior High School Dance!
Back in “the day” we were lucky to even get a DJ with a decent sound system at our Junior High dances. But these days, kids are more sophisticated and competition is fierce. That is why I offer complete packages that include great sound, LED Lighting, and even big-screen video with (age-appropriate) Shadow Dancers. The […]
The Metroplexers move ahead in 2011
When you are a professional disc jockey and a musician, you get to see a lot of fun events. Super Bowl parties are coming soon and The Metroplexers are ready-to-go with a brand new look and sound for 2011. Molly, Kyle, Larry and Mike (me) are all “real players & singers”. Did you know that […]
2010 was a great year for weddings.
As we close out the first decade of the new century, I took a look back at some of the brides and grooms, party-goers, and families that made each of my DJ & MC events in 2010 so special. I use the word “special” a lot, but when events come only once-in-a-lifetime, I think no […]
Is there a doctor in the house? Yes, actually several…
This past Friday night, The Metroplexers had a blast as the entertainment for the MD Pathology Affiliated Laboratories 23rd annual holiday party. These doctors, lab technicians, and administrators provide area hospitals with test results that help patients get properly treated for a variety of ailments. The event was held at the Prestonwood Country Club, Hills […]
Dancing Shadows Big Screen Video
This is one of my favorite ways to bring a DJ show to Junior Highs and High Schools. Double big screens project cool “dancers” from behind that give the impression of live performers. There is never any inappropriate content, but it does give a more grown-up feel; kinda like a night club. My music at […]
