behind the decks with e: I realize that I've been freakishly absent from this blog...

I actually have a good excuse - I've been SUPER busy!

But, check back with me soon, and I'll have a couple of new setlists up, and maybe some fun info about a new blog I'm thinking of.

OOOOOH - yay!

"You did an unbelievable job entertaining our guests. We cannot get through a day without hearing how much fun our friends and family had, and how no one has ever been to a wedding with a dance floor so packed. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. We'll never forget it."

"Thank you so much for being part of our wedding. You helped us in so many ways and we will always be grateful. Thank you for your professionalism and your patience. For being the voice that got everyone where they needed to be. For creating the soundtrack to a great day. And (most importantly) thank you for uniting our various guests in an uncontrollable desire to get up and SHAKE IT until the cops showed up. And then a bit more!"

"Thank you so much for providing such great music for Marisa and Patrick’s wedding reception.

The evening moved along so smoothly and the music really made for a great party. And I must tell you that it was quite infectious to see you enjoying the music too.

Erin, you are truly a professional and –by far – one of the best DJs I worked with this year. I truly hope that we have an opportunity to work together again very soon.

Again, thank you so much for everything. I am truly grateful."

“If you like music, then Erin should DJ your wedding. She captured exactly what we were looking for, playing hours of music we love and always keeping the party going. Her extensive wedding experience really came in hand when we weren’t sure what to play for the ceremony music. She pointed us in exactly the right direction and helped us find something perfect for what we wanted.

Even though I’m somewhat of a music snob, there wasn’t one song all night that wasn’t exactly what I wanted to hear at our party. Not only were we extremely happy with the music, our friends (and our parents’ friends) were extremely happy as well. Erin read the room perfectly.

Oh and she’s also professional, friendly, easy to deal with, and put our desires first while making sure that everyone had a good time (thanks for telling one friend “No country music!”). We would definitely hire Erin again.”

"Erin was fantastic to work with. She was very professional and flexible with everything we needed. We had a couple meetings with her prior to the wedding to discuss what we wanted, and she delivered exactly what we envisioned. She handled all the music during the day; from the ceremony to dinner and dancing. For dancing we only gave three songs we wanted played and left the rest up to her. She kept people dancing the whole night. "

"Erin was wonderful to work with. She always responded immediately to emails, was very flexible, and had a great selection of music and really knew how to get the crowd going! We had quite an age range at our wedding, and everyone was up dancing from the toddlers to some friends of our parents’ who are in their late 60’s. She was laid-back, didn’t put on an annoying fake DJ voice or personality, and really just kept the evening moving smoothly with a great variety of music. Three weeks later, we’re still getting phone calls and emails from people telling us what a great time they had at our wedding, and I attribute much of that to Erin’s awesome DJ skills. I highly recommend her!!!"

"Erin was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. She understood my tastes in music right away and with that in mind she crafted the best playlist for me and my wedding guests. Throughout the night, she'd do a pulse check to ensure what she was playing meshed with the crowed and by the end of the night, every one of my guests was on the dance floor! I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to play great music everyone will dance to. Thanks Erin, for making my wedding day so special."

"Hands down the best vendor we chose. I originally was going to go the iPod wedding route because music is so important and I didn't want to risk booking a dj that wouldn't get us. I soon as I saw one of Erin's playlists online, I knew that she would totally fit our wedding. We had so many compliments on her - she played music that was us and she was really low-key with the announcements and introductions. We gave her a list of songs ahead of time that we liked so that she could get a better idea of what type of music we liked, but outside of the introduction and planned dances, we only gave her two songs that we really wanted to hear that night. She totally nailed it. "

"Hi Erin,

I wanted to tell you how absolutely amazing you were for our wedding! The play list was great and people who I never thought even knew how to dance were out there hitting up the dance floor. Basically you kept the night flowing and the atmosphere exactly what we had hoped for. I hope everything worked out smoothly on your end (directions, set-up, etc.) as well. Thanks for putting together a dinner hour CD, it worked out well. I kept telling people that you played locally - Black Cat, St. Ex - the locals of the group have been asking me what days you play, where, etc. Even heard that Brendan's best man, Devin, heard you play last Thursday! We hope to make it out to hear you sometime soon - I just have to work on my less-than-desired night shift schedule I have. Overall, it was fabulous to work with your unique creativity and professionalism, and I would highly recommend you to anyone. I hope our paths cross again some day!

All the best,
Erin *Cullen*"

"Dear Erin,

Thank you so much for everything you did on Sunday. Everything went just as we envisioned (well, maybe a little hotter:), and Chris and I have you to thank for setting the tone of the event. There were multiple people who commented on how great the music was, and how talented you are. Also, I'm so glad you suggested changing the last song to "Thank God I'm a Country Boy." It was wonderful; Chris and I loved it!Thank you again for everything. I wish you the best in the future.

Take care,
Amy (and Chris)"

"Erin,

I just wanted to write to say thank you so much for the wonderful job you did at our wedding back in October. We couldn’t have been happier! (Well, we could have been happier if it had been about 15 degrees warmer, I suppose… then people wouldn’t have been leaving in droves, necessitating our early departure.) You did a great job with music during dinner, a great job with music for dancing… you just did everything perfectly! And you kept us informed during the night, which was great. I’d have loved to have gotten the chance to dance more – you played such great music! And you are INCREDIBLY well-organized, something that is invaluable during wedding planning. We never had to worry about anything with you – we knew you were on top of absolutely everything. I recommend you to anyone who needs a DJ.

Thank you so much for everything… we had the best wedding we could have ever imagined. Thank you for being a part of it, and for helping to make it happen!

Thanks,
Allison"

"We hired Erin for our October 7, 2006 wedding. We first met with her in February so that she could get a feel for our tastes and so that we could get an idea of what I guess I'd call her DJ philosophy. While my husband had originally wanted to save money by iPodding our wedding, he agreed to meet with a DJ because I was nervous about how much work it might be to do our own and because we weren't sure about the sound system at our site. As we left our first meeting, it was obvious he'd had a complete turnaround and was completely on board with hiring Erin. He felt really comfortable that she'd play music we liked, be able to read the crowd, and emcee without being annoying or trite. In the months preceding the wedding, Erin was responsive to our messages. On the day of the wedding, Erin showed up early, with an apprentice, to set up and proceeded to play a varied set that, at various points, had everyone on the dance floor. We've since had a few guests request her contact information for themselves or to pass on to friends who are getting married. She's extremely professional, with a good sense of sarcasm that we appreciated. We both highly recommend Erin.. for all your DJ'ing needs.

Best,
Lucy"

"I can't say enough about DJ lil'e! She was so easy to work with and very responsive when I had questions. lil'e has great knowledge of music, and knows how to keep people on the dancefloor. My guests still rave about how much fun they had dancing."

"Thank you so much for the amazing job you did for our wedding reception. Like we told you before, we weren't planning on having a DJ at first because it didn't seem worth it. But after our meeting with you, we were sold! You grasped our musical style perfectly and kept everyone on the dance floor till the end. You really put life into the party and read the crowd so well. Many guests complimented the music throughout the night. You are not just another wedding dj and I will be recommending you to as many people I can. Thank you again!!!

"We hired Erin when she was going by Ball and Chain - but whatever the name she's amazing. This is another vendor that over a year later we had people mentioning at parties. Her style is nicely eclectic, she reads the crowed really well and is just a real pleasure to deal with, both before and during the event. "
