One of the biggest discos we did this year was the Brangwyn Hall, Swansea. We had to use the full PA rig to cover it, what we would normally use for an outdoor event. 

The most usual wedding disco, this year was by a lighthouse in Usk. The furthest out gig was Hereford Racecourse. The most memorable disco was the foreign exchange students at the Cardiff Metropolitan University.

The KATT has the annual appearance of the Swansea Science Festival at the National Waterfront Museum. The 8-Foot-Robot-Cat worked perfectly however,  Mascot the Robot Dog was plagued with technical problems. This has been fully resolved, thank goodness.

Corey is now taking a central role in our Robot Shows. Well done Corey.

It was busier this January and I am pleasantly surprised. We have done a teenage disco in Pencoed RFC for an 18th birthday party.  The 13th Birthday party in Port Talbot had UV lighting, smoke and laser.

The Summer of ’18 (Part 2) – Gigs Continue For Party DJ

Written by   in 

Our Party DJ team is spending quite a bit of time between Cardiff and Swansea this summer, primarily with birthday parties. The last couple of weeks have not been as hot, thankfully. It has made the moving and setting up of sound and lighting equipment much more comfortable.

There’s been a change in of some of the crew. Some new guys coming in. Others still keeping in touch as long term friends. We consider them family.

On the disco front in Cardiff, we had:

  • a wedding disco at Roath Sports and Social Club
  • a girl’s birthday party at the Powerhouse Hall
  • a teenage disco at the Collen Arms, Porth

DJ in Swansea

We travelled to  the city of Swansea for a regular customer. The  80th Birthday Party was in the West Cross Inn, Mumbles, Swansea. We always have a wonderful time with them.

Corey and I did a birthday disco and the Conservative Club, in Gowerton. We played loads of requests from the 90s and quite a few Rock tracks. DJ Diamond Dust made a return visit to the Samlet Club, Swansea for a friend and former neighbour to his birthday. 

DJ in Tenby

A return to our regular Summer venue New Minerton Holiday Park, Tenby. We entertained the children with magic, balloon modelling, parachute games and the ever-popular Mascot the Robot Dog. We rounded up the night with disco.

We worked in Whitland Memorial Hall for a 7th birthday Party. This not from our usual venue in Tenby.

The usual routines with magic and the Robot Dog were a great success. We ran more lights and had a chance to use the smoke machine. Quite a few venues don’t allow this as more and more places have smoke detectors.

It’s been a great summer with lots of people to meet and lots of places to see. The adventure continues!

There has been a series of Cardiff discos at Cardiff Metropolitan University. They were for Foreign Students from Italy, Palestine and China. We discovered loads of international tunes.

We had a 40th birthday party Queens RFC Club, Pembroke Dock. There was quite a great deal of requests for Country Music and Line dancing. We were asked to play 70s & 80s rock music too!

This season of Year 6 Leavers Prom included parties at Glyn Clydach Coach House and Mumbles Cricket Club. First party was mainly new music and cheesy disco hits. The second one had more variety because we could play charts, rock music and songs from the 60s.

Children’s Entertainment

We are continuing with our regular summer visits to New Minerton Holiday Park with children’s entertainment. Our booking at Hafod community centre included Mascot the Robot Dog. Martin performed magic, balloon modelling and used our ever popular play parachute.

Our annual Outdoor Road Show at Abergwili Carnival. This year we, primarily, provided the  PA or sound system. We did for background music and commentary. I made announcements, including judging of carnival, rose and fairy queens. Our crew called out for lost children, raffles, competitions. I even introduced the band.
