This is a late blog post from last Saturday’s (1099 MWS gig) wedding reception I did for Afton & Randy @ Kilkarney Hills GC in River Falls, WI. It’s late because I’ve found myself burning the proverbial candle at both ends, and I haven’t even stepped foot into a nightclub or had a drink. I don’t have a gig tonight, I would’ve liked to but my day job, being married w/ kids, DJing Wednesday and Thursday nights, plus weddings on the weekend is kicking my ass.
Anyway, my gig on Saturday for Afton and Randy was great, I think what made it cool was that the whole bridal party was a really fun bunch of people and I met a really great photographer, Beau Peterson . I get along great with all vendors I work with, but this was the first time I really got to check out the photogs shots that he had taken throughout the day and into the night. He had his laptop set up next to me and he was actively downloading his shots onto to it and I have to say the dude knows his craft. I really liked the way he captured the bridal party group photos throughout the day especially the bar photos. Anyway, I suggest checking him out if you’re in the market.
Regarding the reception, it was my usual upbeat great time, and Midwest Sound, the company I 1099 sub-contract for, received a really nice letter from the bride and groom thanking me for sending me out. It’s really cool getting feedback from clients of another company, it just shows that when I’m doing a gig for them I give it my all even though I make a lot less had it been my own gig. Anyway, it’s pretty cool to get paid to have fun every weekend.
Oh shit... I forgot to mention I turned 35 on May 5th.
