I used to work retail and learned December was the craziest time of Year and Christmas meant it was now safe to breathe.
Well the DJ world is kind of the same. See Holiday parties have no rhyme or reason to when they are scheduled, usually they are planned around getting the best bang for the corporate buck. This year with the Economy things were crazier than usual. Parties on Tuesdays, Thursday's even Sunday's meant that I had Saturdays off while still working a full week. I love December.
With the craziness that is December, which is followed by the equally crazy Bridal Show season, the blog had to take back seat for a time... Well VFBSB (View from Behind the Squared Booth, clever huh) takes a back seat to nothing... Well except December and Bridal Show season. In an attempt to make up for this I will fill in my December in one post.
December 4th - Ricoh Holiday Party.
Great group, probably the only event where I got to follow More than a Feeling with La Vida Es Un Carnaval and then Stronger.
December 5th - Kaiser Permanente Nurses Group
Nominee for Holiday Party of the Year! I did this one as a favor and I am 100% glad I did. These nurses cut loose and as the party wrapped I had to kick them out of Yorba Linda Country Club. I think they left, they may still be there. I am Friends with Julie, the Director of Catering, over at YLCC and she told me a week later they loved everything and are looking to book the same package (me included) again.
December 13th - Jessica's Mitzvah
I did her older sisters Mitzvah so it was cool to return to do Jessica's.
December 16 - Yorba Linda Country Club Holiday Party
The food was great and the GM did a great Job of Emceeing as I played the hits.
December 18th - Presbyterian Hospital Neo Care Unit
Nurses love to party and I love to DJ for them. This one was at Coyote Hills Country Club, which I still owe a top ten moments post, there Bartender Matt telling me "You get tired of hearing this but you are the best DJ we get here". Matt I never get tired of hearing that and your check is in the mail.
Then I got the rest of the month off. I used that time to... get ready for Bridal Show season, and that is a post for another day.
