MY NAME IS WES, ALL MY FRIENDS CALL ME PAPABEAR. I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN CALIFORNIA AND MY TRAVELS IN LIFE HAVE BROUGHT ME TO MANY DESTINATIONS AROUND THE WORLD. IN 1978 I WAS IN A RECORD STORE IN LOS ANGELES, CA., CALLED LICORICE PIZZA AND BOUGHT MY FIRST ELECTRONIC LP. THE GROUP WAS _KRAFTWERK_ FROM GERMANY. THE FIRST LEADERS OF OUR INDUSTRY. IN 1979, I JOINED THE ARMY. SIX MONTHS LATER, LOW AND BEHOLD, I WAS IN GERMANY, SMACK IN THE MIDDLE OF AN ELECTRONIC MOVEMENT, KNOWN TODAY AS TECHNO. DURING MY ELEVEN YEARS THERE, I LEARNED ALL GENRES OF THIS MUSIC. THOUGHOUT MY TRAVELS OF EUROPE, I HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO VISIT MANY COUNTRIES AND EXPERIENCE THE NOCTURNAL CLUB LIFE, WHERE I HAVE SEEN AND MET NUMEROUS WORLD-CLASS DJ'S. I HAVE LEARNED TO HAVE A RESPECT AND A LOVE FOR OUR MUSIC, SOMETHING THAT HAS NEVER LEFT MY SOUL. IN 1989, I WENT TO WORK FOR _BOB ROSSERMAN PRODUCTIONS_ AND STARTED WORKING WITH MAJOR BANDS FROM ROCK AND ROLL TO HEAVY METAL TO HIP HOP AND RAP. I MOVED BACK TO THE STATES IN 1991 TO ARIZONA WHERE I WAS LEFT DUMBFOUNDED BY THE LACK OF THE ELECTRONIC MUSIC SCENE. ONE YEAR LATER I MOVED TO ATLANTA, GA., AND WENT TO WORK FOR _CREW ONE PRODUCTIONS_, IN THE CONCERT LIGHTING INDUSTRY. I ALSO WORKED AS A SUB-LIGHTING TECHNICIAN FOR _LAZERLIGHT FX_. SINCE THEN, I HAVE MET ICONS IN OUR INDUSTRY THAT HAVE INSPIRED ME TO OPEN A PRODUCTION COMPANY OF MY OWN. YOUNGROCKSTARS PRODUCTIONS WAS ESTABLISHED LAST YEAR BY MYSELF AND AN EX PARTNER IN MY LIFE. (I WILL GIVE HER CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE). THE FIRST SHOW THAT YOUNGROCKSTARS PRODUCTIONS PUT TOGETHER WAS AT CLUB LE VELA IN PANAMA CITY, FL. ON THE FIFTH OF MAY, 2007. THE NAME OF THE SHOW WAS __FUNKTION__. THE HEADLINERS FOR THE SHOW WERE: __DJ ICY__, __DJ SHARAZ__, __DJ MARK SANCHEZ__, AND __DJ SANDY__ AMONG OTHERS. WHAT A LINE UP! THE SHOW DREW A CROWD OF 1700 PEOPLE AND WAS AN EVENING OF SUCCESS!! NOW YOUNGROCKSTARS IS MADE UP OF MYSELF AND MY BEST FRIEND. AND NEW PARTNER AND CEO OF Y.R.S.P. THE ONE AND ONLY KC JONES (AKA GRASSHOPPER) AND MR Z WHERE EVER HE IS!!!! (LOL) WE KNOW WHERE HE IS. I CANT DO IT WITHOUT YOU GUYS!!! THANKS!!!! BROS 4 LIFE.
