What functions do you attend?
We specialise in Weddings, cover all ages of Birthday Parties, Engagements, Anniversaries, School Formals, Christmas Parties & basically anything that needs musical entertainment.

We seen you at a wedding last year, and would like to book you for a family Birthday Party.
We live in Cookstown (a bit out of the way) is this a problem?

No it is not a problem. I have played all over Northern Ireland inclduing Omagh, Dungannon, Portrush, Enniskillen, Ballymena, Larne, Antrim, Portadown, Bangor & Belfast.
 
As well as a few counties across the border ...including Donegal, Monaghan, Sligo & Cavan.

Is it possible at our wedding you could supply background music during the meal?
Yes it is. There are two ways of doing this; You can pick your own tracks from our online music catalogue and have the personalised CD's made for you at a cost of £15.00 each and hopefully your venue can play these for you. If you require me to setup the sound system there is a charge of £75.00 (CD's not included)

I've been quoted £150 by another DJ for my Wedding. Can you match this?
No we can't. A lot of factors need to be considered when booking your disco, ask yourself the following questions :-

Are they a well established business with a lot of experience or are they new?
Will they have all the music you require & at the quality you expect?
Does the DJ interact with the guests via a microphone or does he play song after song with no introductions?
Are they flexible and able to meet all of your requirements?

If the answer to any of these are
NO
then paying a lower price may not provide you with the entertainment that you require.

Do you have Public Liability Insurance?
Yes we do, we carry £2 million Public Liability Insurance cover. A copy of the certificate is available on request.
