Well, getting ready for today's event. Particularly dense couple. Went through my CD database, picked a bunch of "conflict" and "break-up" songs to play at their wedding. Hey, they had some good selections as well. Folks, don't judge things by song names alone, OK? That's some free advice, take it.
So, gonna bring a large system, minus the Community monitors, just use two of my active mains as floor wedges. Going lite on the lights.
At least they pay good. I hope I get food tonight. Happy Garden Seafood Restaurant, at Stockton and Fruitridge. Karaoke/dance music event. Got 3 new karaoke discs not in the karaoke catalog. Sure would be nice if I had time to take care of those things. Oh well.
If you're Vietnamese, I'll see you there. I'll be the white guy. Closed-event, so no gate crashers please. Event starts at 6, I'll be there at 3:30 setting up. Event will end most likely around 10(Nothern Vietnamese party early), so I'll be outta there around midnight. I started prep-work at 10AM. Sunday: I will try to remain in a vegetative state and get some much needed and deserved rest that I'm sure will be TAKEN from me.
Next events coming up: Keith Urban, Mr. Lobo, Bill Cosby, Chicago. Check out my sites for more details.

I had to fire my crew DAY OF event. Pulled attitude, weren't ready. Had to get 2 new guys.
Pulled it off, at the buzzer. Went good. Lights went up clunky and need some repairs for stuff that happenned, but that's OK.
Party next door was some ego-driven wanker DJ with a crap-ass sound system. We were asked REPEATEDLY to turn ours down. We even had live mic's and no feedback. What puds.
Anyhow, looks like we got a fundraiser booked for the 24th of September. Some washed up Vietnamese A-lister whisper-singer(they all sing that way). I'm sure she will complain about feedback while she gives me nothing to work with. I'm bringing an assault knife to that event to deal with her handlers. If they touch my gear, I'm lopping digits off them!! I'm putting it in as a rider to the contract!!
I'm about ready to hire UWA folks for my crew. At least they are reliable and I can toss them whatever money I can for their much deserved efforts.
