Minh-Ha and Ryan's Hilton Torrey Pines Setlist

Minh-Ha and Ryan had a fairly low key, yet beautiful afternoon wedding at the Hilton Torrey Pines. As a golf fan, I always enjoy working here, since it's a chip shot away from one of the back nine fairways. This party did not have a lot of dancing (Minh Ha herself even said there were not a lot of dancers on the guest list), but I still provided a nice upbeat atmosphere to keep folks tapping their toes.

Chris and Tessie's Setlist


A broken leg (the groom was injured just a week before the wedding) and a steady rain throughout the night didn't stop this couple and their guests from getting down all night. Chris, Tessie and their mostly out of town guests had a great time dancing to some classic disco and hip hop.

It was a fabulous night at the Scripps Seaside Forum in La Jolla.

For me, I was excited to finally get to a gig after a long winter break and bust out some new material such as Rihanna's "S&M" and Pink's "Raise Your Glass." We even had a little time for some girly pop with "Party in the U.S.A."

And the night ended sweetly with Train's, "Marry Me," a song that I'm sure I will hear a few more times this year. :)

Oceanfront Dance Party

Lindsey, Jamie and 50 of their closest friends and family descended upon the La Jolla Shores Hotel for their beachside wedding ceremony and reception. As I mentioned in the earlier setlist post, it was a great dance party and provided a first for me, the playing of Whitney Houston's "How Will I Know." What a great pop song! That, as well as a few other highlights are included in the video below.

Here is the full setlist.

Jamie and Lindsey's Setlist

Jamie and Lindsey, along with an intimate set of just 48 close friends and family, flew in from NYC to La Jolla, California and celebrated the beginning of their lives together. I had the pleasure to entertain them and their guests.

They danced the night away to Lady Gaga, Kesha and Katy Perry. But I was most excited to debut Cee Lo Green's edited version of "F**k You," of course toned down to "Forget You." I also had a blast mixing in Whitney Houston's old school jam, "How Will I Know," a special request from the bride.

A few months ago, I picked up the remix of this great 80s jam and have not had chance to play it until now. It was a great party, and I know for sure Jamie and Lindsey are checking this out, because a lot of their song choices came from previously posted setlists.

Congrats guys ... here's your setlist!

Matt and Heidi's Wedding

I was so touched by Heidi's email, that I thought I better get my heiny in gear, edit and post her and Matt's post gig video. So, here are a few highlights of the their July 31, 2010 party at the Lodge at Torrey Pines in beautiful La Jolla, California. Keep in mind, it's just shot from my SLR. No special lighting or anything, just what I have to work with, while DJ'ing. The ultimate in multi-tasking!

Oh yeah, here's a list of all the awesome songs I played that night.

Amy and Ian Wedding Teaser

San Diego wedding photographer Bobby Earle posted a couple of teasers from the wedding I DJ'd this past weekend. I'll write more about my thoughts on this amazing event when Bobby publishes his full post on it later. For now, here is the tease.
