About Me



ABOUT ME.....

I was Born in Portland ME. My mother re-married, and I became a Navy Brat at the age of six. We moved all over the country. Maine, Rhode Island, Charlston, SC, Pensacola FL, North Chicago, IL, Nashville, TN, I went to High School in Chicago, and Here at PEARL COHN.... SUP to all my FIREBIRDS!! Then I joined the Navy and served in the Persian Gulf along side of my step father on the USS Sacramento (AOE-1), While living Near Seattle, WA. I was Married and Divorced and I have a beautiful daughter named Paige, who is like 16 now. I started driving a Tractor Trailer after the Navy, and I stopped here in Nashville to meet my current wife Rose. We have a handsome son named Noah. Nashville, is where I call Home now.


HOW I BECAME A DJ....

I started Listening to Chicago HOUSE MUSIC back in 1987, and was Hooked right away. (B-96, WBMX, and WGCI) I bought my first turntables at a Salvation Army, so I could practice Scratching. I've been working with vinyl since 1989 off and on. (Not proffessionally) I got my first computer back in 1998 and started editing music and tracks. I started creating mixes, and got pretty good at it. A friend of mine, Todd Ingal, asked me to DJ his wife Camille's 50th Birthday Party of 150 people or more. I agreed and DJ'ed off my Computer. I hooked into the amplification system of the keyboard player hired to play dinner music. It went off without a Hitch. I was asked for my card afterwards, and I told everyone I was not a proffessional DJ. Everyone told me I should be. So I decided, "Yeah......I really should be......"I bought my first Speakers and Amp at a Pawn Shop. A Peavey CS - 800 and a pair of StudioPro speakers. (usually found at Rent-A-Centers) I DJ'd for FREE at a Mexican Restaurant called El Pueblo in Smyrna TN for about 6 Months. It was a friend of ours who just opened it, and the business was going under. My music brought the place alive, and he has since bought and opened a second Restaurant. I couldn't really do any wrong, if I just played what the people wanted to hear. I learned quickly, the power of playing requests..... If I didn't have it.....I got it. Needless to say my inventory of Musica de Espanol es Mucho Grande. I also did Spanish Karaoke......Ya'll Try that one with No Spanish Lessons. I gained Much Respect from all my listeners. I played two other mexican restaurants, and included a KID's Night.

After about 8 months, I started at LIZZI'S GRILLE in Antioch, TN. January of 2006, I started from scratch. No Crowd, No Advertisements, except a banner on the building. I turned an ordinary restaurant into a small hip hop night club in about 3 months. People always talk about those days, and how much fun we had.

I DJ'd CLUB 615 In Nashville, TN One of the Biggest Clubs in the City of Nashville. Made famous of course by Young Buck. I played my Videos on a 100 Sq. Ft. Screen on the Dance Floor.

Next I DJ'd @ CLUB ZEN In Madison, TN , Saturday Nights and also played my VIDEOS on the Dance floor. People really like the videos, and it's becoming more and more popular with the DJ's that wanna keep up.
I am Currently at TOWNLEY'S Bar and Grill, in Smyrna TN The Videos are a Big Hit, and I'm gonna do my best to make everyone happy. I try and stick with what made me successful in the first place, and that is to play my requests. We play 80's and 90's on Friday Nights, and top 40 on Saturday Nights......(No Rap Music) Thursday Nights are LADIES NIGHT!!

Sounds Like:

If you're going to talk to the club D.J., DON'T SAY.....

1. "Play something good... something we can dance to!" The D.J. has to play for more than one person, so what you may hate may be another's favorite song and everything played here can be danced to one way or another.
2. "Would you play something with a beat?" Don't be an idiot. We know of no songs played in a club that don't have some sort of a beat.
3. "I don't know who sings it and I don't know the name of the song, but it goes like this... la dee-dah-dee!" Please, don't sing for the D.J. They have to put up with smoke-filled rooms and dangerous decebal levels all night. Do them a favor and don't give them a rendition of your favorite song.
4. "Everybody wants to hear it!" Oh sure, you polled everyone in the club and, as their spokesperson, you are requesting the song. Also, do not make a request, then send all your friends to make the same request when the D.J. doesn't play it. We're on to you bastards.
5. "I can get laid if you play it!" If you are good enough, you can get laid to anything!! (also been known as "buy the album and get laid for a month!")
6. "I want to hear it next!" The only people who can get away with that statement write the D.J.'s paycheck. Also a $100 tip could help matters.
7. "I don't know what I wanna hear... what do you have?" It's a lot easier for you to go have another beer and figure out what you want to hear than it is for the D.J. to recite the name of every record in the booth.
8. "Hey man, nobody can dance to this!" It is not advisable to say this when the dance floor is packed (but, some people do anyway). However, even if there is only one person on the floor, it still contradicts the statement.
9. "Everybody will dance to it if you play it!" The D.J. won't...I guess that blows a hole in that theory.
Tips:
1 If you ask for a song and the D.J. says he just played it, don't say, "Well, I just got here." It makes absolutely no difference.
2 Don't say, "Is this the only kind of music you play?" If you go to a Chinese restuarant, you wouldn't ask for Italian food. Rock clubs play rock, alternative clubs play alternative, discos play disco, etc., etc., etc...
3 If you ask for a song, be specific. Don't say, "I wanna hear something, anything but this!" Try going to the bar and saying, "I wanna drink something, anything but this!" You can't complain if you're not specific.
4 However, if you are specific and the D.J. says he doesn't have the song, don't say, "What?!! What do you mean you don't have it? What kind of D.J. are you? Why don't you get into the wonderful world of fast food! You obviously don't know what you're doing as a D.J.!"... Expect a bitch slap.
5 Give the D.J. a break. The next time you request a song, stop and think before you speak. And above all, if the D.J. has one hand on the mixer, one hand on a turntable/CD player - wearing headphones, don't bug him. HE'S MIXING
