Glasgowmusic Newsletter 140813

Hello, how are you?

Looking forward to the football tonight? Lets hope last nights under 21s result isnt a sign of what may come!

Festival season is coming to an end and many tours are being announced. Cannot wait to check out loads of bands coming through our fair city!

Prestfest was great fun to work at and was nice to get out the city and see a well run festival with a great atmosphere and excellent musicians. I really enjoyed Echo Valley www.Soundcloud.com/OfficialEchoValley


I am curating the DJs for the Tough Mudder event in Dalkeith, Edinburgh on the 24th and 25th August. Details here https://djcraigmcgee.wordpress.com/2013/08/13/tough-mudder-dj-sets/

I have been booked to play a number of Christmas Parties at West Brewery aswell as their Hogmanay Party https://djcraigmcgee.wordpress.com/2013/08/13/hogmanay-and-christmas-parties-at-west-brewery/

FINALLY


I am Djing this Sunday night in ONeills from 10 onwards.


Needing a Wedding DJ?

I have been Djing Weddings this year where couples only want to hear music being played and not some Microphone hungry DJ who cracks bad jokes.
I will chat with couples and tailor each set to each clients needs. I started a blog and you can view it here. On there are some mixes, playlists and testimonials.
I can also arrange other entertainment and PA / Lights Hire.
