School Dance at Convent of the Visitation School
04/13/08 11:15 Filed in: Events
Last night Karl and I
did something different. It was like dueling DJs. We
had a blast and so did the kids. This was our second
time DJing for Visitation School. A while ago we did
the winter dance for the older students and last
night was the 9th graders turn.
Karl decided to surprise me and sets up two computers and we would play off each others songs. He used the black Apple and I used the white Apple computer. Good vs Evil I assumed. He was trying to out rock me. Every time he played a song that got the kids super pumped he rubbed it in my face even if the one I had played got just as good a reaction. To tell you the truth it was fun competing with Karl, it was a neat twist. The kids benefited because we were both trying so hard to get the best reaction. Kept us on our toes. We took some requests, keeping it clean. The students were well rounded and enjoyed music from many eras and genres. The students and adults at this school are a pleasure to work with. They are so kind and respectful to us. Each time we finished a show with Visitation, Karl and I both end up talking about what great kids go there. They help organize the event they do the decorating they help clean up. Very respectful to adults. The teachers and parents must be so proud.
At the end of the night when we had played the last song, and said goodnight, the kids chanted for one more song. We had just played Don't Stop Believing by Journey (they knew all the words), so we waited a bit to make them think we were just packing it up and then we played Piece Of Me by Britney and they screamed! It was so cool!
The kids were thanking us and telling us we ROCKED IT! The parents and teachers had enjoyed the variety of music as well and thanked us for not just playing hip hop all night. Even the Police Officer came up and complimented us on our music choices. A good time was had by all, especially this DJ. Can't wait for the next show!
