5-29-10 Marjorie's College Grad Party

So Saturday Brought me to Elizabeth to enjoy an evening of dancing and joy celebrating Marjorie's big accomplishment. I arrived on the scene about 1.5 hrs ahead of schedule to begin my setup. Once setup I got some tunes ready as the guests arrived. the Mom Zenaida provided me with a play list consisting of numerous Latin songs and a few Haitian selections as Marjorie's father is Hatian and her Mom is Colombian. The evening was alot of fun as the family and friends truly came to celebrate our grads accomplishment. they danced for most of the night and gave me big props on the selection and music mix. Thanks again to the Quiones family for choosing Your Neighboorhood DJ!

So Tuesday's event was even cooler than last year. DJ Jagged and I had the pleasure of working with Egils of Eggsotic events for this year's beach themed corporate event @ The Blooomberg corp campus this year. As I arrived and was screened by numerous guards before I finally got to the party location. It was decked out with a full home made boardwalk equipped with boardwalk style games and food stations serving fresh fragrant seafood delicacies. Once again I was entertaining in the cafeteria which was transformed into a beach buffet. the decorations gave a great feel of actually being transported to the beach as Egils does a fantastic job every year! After getting situated I helped Jagged get his gear setup outside. Upon finishing I got the tunes fired up keeping with the laid back beach paradise theme. The mood was set with songs like: Sweet Escape- Gwen Stefani
Two Tickets to Paradise- Eddie Money
Margaritaville- Jimmy Buffet
Paradise- Sade
Kokomo- Beach Boys
Paradise City- Guns n Roses

Once wrapping up the buffet our guests were corralled upstairs for their annual awards ceremony. The awards area was also decked out in a beach theme and set the mood for the guests. Our awards hosts were in rare form and kept the ceremony fun and upbeat with their wit and humor. Once finishing up the guest were back downstairs and outside under a huge tent where Jagged was set up and keeping the atmosphere with some beach inspired tunes. The crowd flooded the food stations and let it all hang loose in the extraordinary space. The crowd didn't cut a rug like they did last year, but overall I think a good time was had by all. Thanks once again to Jagged for bringing me in on this event, and thanks Eggsotic and Bloomberg for allowing Ambient DJ to be part of such a cool event!
