This was a large area, so we used four QSC line array speakers with wireless microphones and a PreSonus StudioLive 16.4.2 Digital Mixer for complete coverage. We were also able to mic the entire army band, as well as a guitar duo.

The Gilbert Days parade is a long tradition of being the premiere event for Gilbert Days. The parade is a celebration of the town’s heritage and involves many local schools, businesses, non-profit organizations, and special interest groups. This year's theme was #GilbertKindness.

This past October, Jaynee Benavidez (Stage name Dolly Games) from Tucson, AZ contracted $200 worth of sound equipment plus delivery/setup costs for a breast cancer event in Phoenix, AZ and has stiffed us for the entire amount. The sound equipment was delivered to the Monorchid venue in downtown Phoenix, then picked up the following day. The credit card provided has since declined multiple times. We have since attempted to contact Jaynee Benavidez via telephone as well as email and have been responded to with profanity and a lack of communication. We still have not received payment for the contracted equipment.

Sentimental? Yes. Simple? Not always. Here's what you may not know about planning a backyard wedding celebration.
When it comes to weddings, there really is no place like home. Maybe your parents have an amazing lakeside house, or Grandma has that perfect country cottage. But odds are your childhood homestead isn't quite prepared for 150 wedding guests, 75 cars, 20 waiters, 15 tables, and 1 happy couple. Although it may be more work (and more expensive) than you anticipated, you won't regret saying your vows in the place that means the most to you. It's all about being prepared for what it takes to throw a wedding in your very own backyard.
It is amazing at how quickly Uplighting is becoming a “must have” item at Weddings. No, it doesn’t surprise me that discerning brides are wanting this after all, when done correctly, it adds more “pizazz” than perhaps any other single decoration you can do. That said, as a wedding vendor who does this on a regular basis, I’d like to share a few bits of wisdom that will help you with your own Uplighting.
Yours won't be just another cookie-cutter wedding -- here are some unique ideas to make your wedding a standout celebration.
A Luxe Reception Lounge
Give guests a place to mingle between dance breaks by creating a lounge area at your reception. Fill the space with couches or chairs and plenty of pillows to sink into. It's the perfect way to keep everyone in on the party even when they're resting. Really want to wow 'em? Close off the area with curtains to create a VIP vibe.
Reception Ushers
You may already be planning to have your ushers escort guests to their ceremony seats, but consider having reception ushers. These "live escort cards" walk guests to their tables for an upscale restaurant experience. Ask your reception venue or caterer if its waitstaff can do this double duty, or assign a few ushers to the job.
Guest Transportation
If you're planning on shuttling your guests from the ceremony to the reception, make the journey part of the fun by renting some seriously cool mass transportation. Take wedding transportation to new heights with a hot air balloon ride. Or, if it'll suit your wedding style, get nostalgic with some charming yellow school buses. And for extra flair, customize the ride by playing fun music or decking out the bus with a sign that reads, "Sarah and John's wedding or bust!"
So you’ve done it. You’ve spent countless hours writing and recording a stellar EP for your new band. You’ve picked a name. You’ve built a website and set up your social media profiles. You even have a handful of shows booked in your area in the next couple of months. You and your team are excited to get this musical endeavor off the ground.
Maybe you are a little concerned that the only interested parties will be your friends and your family, so you’ve been researching how to market your music to fans that will become devoted listeners and followers. And you hit a wall. Marketing your music is a daunting and time consuming task, with a lot of conflicting information on the best practices. Hiring out a marketing firm to take care of it for you can be rather expensive, and since your budget is limited, you’re not sure where to turn. Click on the link below to read more…

You’re on Facebook, Twitter, SoundCloud, Vine, Instagram, and a handful of other platforms you barely remember signing up for. Maybe you’re communicating with fans with Snapchat, uploading videos to YouTube, and streaming live concerts via Periscope or Meerkat.
Yes, you have an “online presence” — but so does every other artist in the world.
That’s okay. Social media is integral to a musician’s success these days. But total reliance on social media is an all-too-common mistake a lot of new bands make. What these platforms do not provide you with, of course, is a website: an online headquarters for your music, a space that you control for the long haul.
