Happy
holidaze everyone!
Welcome
to that ultra busy December crunch time again. A full month of self
centered demanding clients, obnoxious drunks making stupid music
requests and the agonizing feeling of detachment while performing for
total strangers on New Years Eve. So why do we endure this season of
premeditated torture? Why do we put up with everything from corporate
chaos resulting from the frenzied fruit of a years labor to the
chronic well wishing from the family black sheep? Because when 1998
becomes a fading blur in the rearview mirror, we'll be with fellow
veteran DJ's in Las Vegas partying like it's 1999!
The
golden opportunity that comes around once a year to Mobile DJ's to
combine prudent business with self indulgent pleasure. The chance to
get out of town to see old friends, make some new ones too and write
off the whole adventure as a tax expense! A hard earned week to
ourselves in entertainment paradise. One spent networking, shopping
and relaxing at the Mobile Beat DJ conference. It is also time to
reward those amongst us that are deserving of a job well done. Time
to see the latest new dances, original games and interactive skits.
As well as a chance to win valuable DJ gear door prizes. It's time
for the 4th annual American Disc Jockey Awards. This year is going to
be different. This year is going to see changes. This year's Awards
Show will be the best one ever. For starters, the competition winners
for "Male and Female Entertainer of the year" as well as
"Propmaster of the year" will win a combination cash prize
and DJ gear worth $1,000.00. Awards Show attendees will learn dances,
games and skits to take home and use in their markets. Some lucky
DJ's will win a variety of fabulous door prizes. We've even added a
chance for people to win a prize by simply looking good. You may wear
whatever you want, however, guests arriving formally attired will be
seated in the front center section and be given a colored ticket for
a drawing of "Best dressed attendee". Everyone will get to
visit the all new "Hall of Fame" exhibit, be dazzled by the
intelligent lights, and move until midnight to the deluxe sound system.
To
insure that this year's performers are the best possible, we've
created an audition at noon January 14 to separate the mice from the
men. It will be followed by a rehearsal where every segment of the
Show will fine tuned. To participate in the talent selection please
contact the American Disc Jockey Awards at (714) 634-1774 to place
your name on the list. If you know of a deserving DJ in the
categories of "Best Club DJ", "Best Karaoke DJ",
"Best Country/Western DJ" or "Best technical DJ"
and would like to nominate them, then please do so by December 10,
1998. Nominations are open to the entire industry and Nominees must
be present to win. Seating is limited, tickets are $20.00 at the
convention and $15.00 presale if purchased by December 31, 1998. Call
(909) 626-1005 for credit card orders (there will be a small service
charge added) or send a check made payable to the: American Disc
Jockey Awards, 1015 E. Katella Ave. Suite B, Anaheim, CA 92805.
ShowTime is 8:00pm to 10:00pm January 14, 1999 with a post party in
the Caribbean ballroom until midnight.
So
come on out to honor the best and learn something new with great
odds to win some pro DJ gear too!
See
you at the Tropicana Hotel!
