Some days, your wife decides to print your face onto popsicle sticks for all your friends to have at your birthday party. Most days, that doesn’t happen. But sometimes, it does.

So as I’m updating and posting and sharing and creating content, I was taking a tour of the history of this page. There were a lot of battles of “posting on personal, post on the page” and trying to figure out what works. Over 10 years on social media as DJ Carbon, and I am almost at 6,000 followers without dumping a bunch money on ads and promotion but just organically building in the Wichita market and the surrounding areas. It means a lot to me. Appreciate those of you that have been along for the ride. Thank you!!

Planning and plotting things for Rainbows United, Inc. big fundraiser. Fashion Passion is always a great time. Hard to believe I’ve been a part of this celebration for almost 10 years.

A great night at for a Social Hour (or 3). Networking, vibes, and a super cool space. Can’t wait to do it again in the near future.

How to make my Monday wonderful? Getting an email like this "Happy Monday! I just wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for everything you did for our group on Saturday night. Everyone had such an amazing time, and your efforts truly knocked it out of the park! We are already looking forward to doing it all over again next year."
I was very excited to be a part of this corporate banquet as their usual history was a more of a dinner and drinks and no enetertainment. They trusted me to kick things up a bit. We had a cocktail hour, and then dinner, and then a program with some awards and employee appreciation. I made sure the mics were right, the music was on point, and the lighting complimented it all.
After all of that, I took over and we did raffle giveaways, I hosted games to win some awesome gift cards, we danced, more games, more dancing, and some more amazing raffle gifts for the employees to take home. The energy was high and it was an absolute win of a night.
I take a lot of pride in the services I provide, and I always treat it as an absolute honor when a company selects me to provide the entertainment to their valued employees. If you are ever needing to take your corporate function up a notch or two, feel free to give me a shout and let me help make it an amazing night!

Many moons ago, I went to an art show. While there, I saw some absolutely amazing photos that I fell in love with (and bought several of). That was the day I met Patton . We became fast friends and I got to DJ the debut of the Shapes series. Years later, I got to DJ the most recent Shapes release. In between, there have been some good meals, good drinks, great hangs, and some of my favorite photos ever.

We had quite the party at the Salina Art Center Galaxy Gala, and everyone came out looking AMAZING!!! Truly out of this world! I even met up with a few fellow space cadets.

Had the most amazing time at my birthday celebration. I was not ready to have multiple versions of my face available, but that happened. Sincere thanks to everyone that came through for the DJ session.

Is it normal to look at past photos from all the outdoor events when you are locked down in the frigid cold?

Today is national "Love your Pet" day. My home is currently pet-free. I have some squirrels that regularly visit my front yard, but I don't think they qualify. So, I am requesting all the pet photos to make me not feel like running out and claiming a new animal today.

What a week! Birthday festivities to discuss and a trip to Broadway in Wichita where I saw probably my favorite show ever and Brooklyn, well, not on her tops list. But come check in with the crew of myself and Annette Lawless, Live Local, The Kansas Gastronomist and Wichita By E.B.
Also, speaking of upcoming theater, the next showing from Broadway in Wichita is Beetlejuice which has an extended run, so get those tickets now!!!!

Going through my stack of gift cards/certificates and re-declaring that I am going to use them all (for the ump-teenth time). I think it’s safe to say I can get rid of this one. But I gotta say Pinball at Industry was a fun time. Met some great people in the pinball community and rediscovered an old hobby. From the beginning of beat up machines and playing low score buys the next round to having full on tournaments and leagues. I almost qualified for “state finals” (don’t worry, I didn’t know that was a thing back then either). Thankful we have some great spots to go flip at these days (shout to Kirby's Flipside, The Arcade, Lucky's Everyday), but “Pindustry” will always hold a place in my heart.

Just daydreaming of amazing spaces that let creativity run wild. Working on some things and dreaming of warmer weather.

So last week, we threw a little event called the "Clam Jam". We used to do it on a semi-regular basis. Basically, a handful of DJs would get together and setup the latest and greatest equipment (and usually some classics or some stuff you may not see often) and just setup a jam session. DJs could get together and practice/talk shop/trade tips/ask questions and just gain a lot from each other, and celebrate each other at the same time. To do it for the first time in a long time was a blessing.
Why am I saying this? Well, I hope to do it again, and maybe a post will keep me committed to helping put something together. And beyond that, for the homies in other markets, DO THIS! Seriously so beneficial to chop it up and educate.
