So the last gig of 2023 pasted without a hitch. Crowd were very appreciative last night and parties from start to finish. Happy New Year guys...
Back on it with Christmas party number 11 last night at the Queens Hotel. It was a staff party for '2Teck' a property maintenance company. There were over 90 blokes in attendance, but only a handfull of women! It's always hard to get the guys on the dancefloor so went big on the dance floor fillers early and it worked...
A bit late in posting but Christmas party number 10 completed on Saturday. They were a great bunch that danced from the first tune to the last...
Christmas party number 7 saw QA Hospital consultants hitting the dance floor last night. I still don't have a strong enough voice to make announcements over the mic but it is slowly returning...
Struggled through Christmas party number 6 last night as I lost my voice and couldn't use the microphone to make any announcements. I decided to let the music do the talking and towards the end of the night hit them with some big dance tunes...
Christmas party number 5 last night at the Queens Hotel, Southsea. This is QA Hospitals A & E Departments getting down to some Shakira...

DJ'd for the re-opening of the Beresford pub near Bognor last night. The previous owners were forced to close the pub last year due to rising costs. The place was packed out with local residents pleased to have their pub open again.Last night was an 80's night...
Back at the Queens Hotel Southsea last night, DJing at the wedding of Jaynie and Dan. Had a playlist to work through with quite a general selection of songs, but also alot of club bangers. I saved these for the last 90 mins when a lot of the older guests had headed home and the party crowd were just getting warmed up...
On Sunday I was DJing at the wedding of Max and Emily at Skylark Meadows Golf Club. Love a bit of Proud Mary...
How do you get a wedding crowd dancing on a school night? Play a 70's classics set! DJing a Monday wedding at the Square Tower in Old Portsmouth for Rich and Kim.
DJ'd a surprise 50th for Lisa at Locksheath Working Mens Club last night. A new venue for me but was made to feel very welcome by the staff. I didn't know it was an 80's themed party and pretty much everyone made the effort to be in fancy dress. Played nothing but 80's bangers from 7pm untill the last song when Lisa asked if we could finish the night with a 90's Take that classic..
Prom number 4. Trafalgar School in Portsmouth students definitely all went away happy along with the staff as they danced all night.
Prom number 3. Back at the Marriott Hotel, Portsmouth. This time it's for Priory School year 11 leavers...
Prom number 2 on Thursday. This time for Mayfield year 11 leavers at the Queens Hotel Southsea...
Well prom season has started. First of many for me was at the Portsmouth Marriott Hotel for Admiral Lord Nelson School. I think they all had a great prom as the dance floor was rammed from the first to the last song.
Great wedding reception last night at the Queens Hotel in Southsea. The playlist said 80's, 90' pop and 90's dance classics. Perfect playlist for me...
