At the Clay Center Prom when the school's male population serenaded me with "Build me up Buttercup" in the middle of the dance. What is your favorite party song?

We were very pleased with our DJ (Andrew) and he did an AMAZING job compared to others I have seen before. He did a great job and I would still like a business card in case we have another event, or if somebody else could be referred.

It was much better than expected. - Annie and Sheridan Thompson He dressed in a Hawaiian shirt and even put on the grass skirt I had bought for the luau. He had so much fun and had great game ideas! I won't use another DJ company. You guys are great. - Addie Larson (Holton Parks & Rec) Our DJ (Andrew) was AMAZING. He went above and beyond his duties.

How would you describe your DJ personality/style? Energetic and fun! If you aren’t dancing or having fun then I need to change what I’m doing. I listen to and like all genres of music and if there isn’t a song in our library and it’s legit I will have it the next time I come around. What is your favorite DJ memory? My best memory so far would have to be at a wedding during my training and the bride and groom were asking for music that the DJ I was shadowing didn’t have much experience or knowledge in. I suggested a few songs by the bride and groom’s selected artist and eventually it became a “I got this under control” moment. Having both the bride and groom come up to me and thank me for playing what they wanted to hear has to be one of the best memories I have so far. What is the funniest thing that ever happened at an event? I was DJ’ing for a fundraiser event at St. George Elementary and I was talking with some of the kids and they wanted the “Apple Bottom Jeans” song. I was a little reluctant to play it because I was at an Elementary school but decided to play it and a grandma came out and busted out with some cool dance moves. Everyone including me was astounded but she just kept on dancing without a care about what everyone thought and at the end of the song she gave me a wink. Funny and awkward at the same time… What is your proudest moment as a DJ? The proudest moment I honestly had is when I was at a high school DJ’ing for their homecoming dance and the school had lost badly and my mic wasn’t working. I knew a lot of the kids from when I was in high school and when I went back to the city where the school was those kids and all of their friends said that they didn’t even know that the mic wasn’t working cause I was a DJ who just played music that they liked. Knowing that despite all the difficulties I was having there are still going to be people out there in the crowd who are still having fun no matter what. Why did you become a DJ? I became a DJ because I thought it would be a job that I would legitimately enjoy (and do) working. I was a member of the “Pride of the Land”, K-States marching band, and have always been around music since high school and beyond. It only seemed fit when that I saw the posting that I give it a try and I’m glad I did. Why do you like performing at wedding dances? What I really like the most from them as a DJ is that you can play anything from older 60’s to the current timeframe music and there will be at least one couple or person out there having a great time and dancing to the beat. What is your favorite party song? Anything by LMAFO! What sets you apart from other DJ's, or what are you specialties? Some DJ’s are good with teaching dances or having great selection choices but I’m a peoples DJ. The first few songs are just to see what the crowd likes after that it’s all about the crowd. I might teach a new dance but I’m never alone when I do it, there’s always some one out there who knows the dance too. And sure I like to have fun but making sure that I get as many people out there having fun before I do is what matters most. Being a part of and getting to know and understand the crowd and their likes is what I believe sets me apart from the other DJ’s. What are some of your personal accomplishments (scholarships, memberships, etc.)? Biggest personal accomplishment is making it to college and surviving… so far, haha. When I lived in the dorms on campus I was a member of the governing board for our dorm. I consider getting accepted for this job and any job really a personal accomplishment. List one or more fun fact(s) about you most people do not know: I was the 2008-2009 Shawnee County 4H King, I can play a variety of instruments including the French Horn (even though I prefer percussion instruments), I like to bike everywhere… I mean everywhere I’ve been from Manhattan to Topeka via bike, and I have plans on going farther.

During a special song the other kids brought him to the middle of the floor and cheered him on as he broke out of his shell. What do you do particularly well at your shows that sets you apart from other DJs? I have a strong theatrical background so I am very experienced with a microphone.

Thank you Bryan! I've got to admit I'm tearing up a little filling this out, but I promise they are happy tears. You absolutely MADE my wedding. I haven't had that much fun in years, and that's the first time in ages that I've seen my family have such a good time. - Kate and Eric Niemann Bryan was a fantastic DJ; he had guests dancing all night! I think a few of them even gave a friendly boo when he had to call 'last song' because they didn't want the party to end. He made sure we were happy all night, and we definitely were. Thanks Bryan! - Sarah and Brian Bellau Our DJ Bryan was absolutely amazing. He helped with anything he could help with and did all that was asked of him and more. Everyone thought that he was incredibly nice. He also did a great job at making us, the bride and groom, feel calm as we were included in every decision that was made. He also played great music, played all our requests, had fun and got everyone else dancing and having fun as well. We heard so many nice things about him from everyone at the reception and we loved him as well! We really appreciate all that he did and were incredibly glad that he was part of our wedding! - Sarah and Linley Brandenberg Bryan was amazing!!! I can't put into words how great he was. I couldn't have asked for better, more prepared, thoughtful and fun DJ! He made sure everything was PERFECT and provided great advice on what to do throughout the night. He tracked me down if we had a question and did everything he said he would. Seriously made my entire night. I'd love to be used as a referral- I will tell any bride that he is the DJ you need. And the keyboard tie was just the cherry on top. - Ashley and Tyson Pyle "A job where I'm hired to bring the fun? That's my idea of good work!" - Bryan Bryan is one of our most outgoing Eastern Kansas DJs. He is a professional comedian and is always ready to make an event perfect and memorable.

I have no problems playing the laid back show but I most certainly do not shy away from a high energy show either. Why do you like performing at wedding dances? Everyone is in a fun mood and ready to cut loose. I always enjoy bringing the fun for people who are in the mood for it. How would you describe your personality as a DJ? Fun, energetic, friendly and always aiming to create a successful evening. What is your #1 goal at a dance? Naturally I want everyone to have fun, but I'm not satisfied until the bride and groom (or other client) has a huge smile and don't hesitate to recommend me to their friends. What do you do particularly well at your shows that sets you apart from other DJs? Listening and adjusting the atmosphere and tempo of the evening to properly match the mood of the room for that particular evening.

How would you describe your DJ personality/style? I love to be outgoing and helpful to the bride and groom. I try to keep everyone happy before and during the dance. I love to attend parties and love for them to be big. What is your favorite DJ memory? My favorite DJ memory is when I did a wedding in a small town like my home town and everyone danced and was rowdy the whole time no matter what age they were. It reminded me of my families weddings! What is the funniest thing that ever happened at an event? My funniest memory is playing the song “Judas” by Lady Gaga at a high school dance and all the students circled around one girl who did the entire dance from the video. I was impressed to say the least. What is your proudest moment as a DJ? My proudest moment is having the bride and groom come up to me on my first wedding I chose all the music for and telling me that they really didn’t want to have a dance but I made them glad they did. Why did you become a DJ? I became a DJ because I will take any opportunity I can to have fun and being a DJ is job were you get to have fun while helping other people have fun. Why do you like performing at wedding dances? Who doesn’t love attending a wedding dance? It’s always a day full of positive energy and everyone is ready to let lose What is your favorite party song? I enjoy the “Cupid Shuffle” or “Beat It” by Michael Jackson. The “Cupid Shuffle” is very easy to dance to and everyone tends to love it. “Beat It” is a classic almost everyone knows and if I teach the Rope-a-Dope to go with it anyone can dance to it as well. What sets you apart from other DJ's, or what are you specialties? I think all the different genres of music I listen to personally, sets me apart from other DJ’s because I won’t be bias to playing any genre over the other unless asked to do so. I play what makes people get up and dance and I try to keep that flow. I enjoy getting out on the dance floor and teaching dances or just having a good time with the crowd. I feel accomplished if I leave the dance feeling like I made a new group of friends. What are some of your personal accomplishments (scholarships, memberships, etc.)? I am currently a fine arts student at Kansas State University and I received one of only a few art scholarships available for students of my age. My proudest accomplishment is raising over 1,300 dollars for the Susan G. Komen foundation to go towards breast cancer research, by organizing a “Pink Out” at my high school! List one or more fun fact(s) about you most people do not know: I am 100 percent German as far as I can trace back and I enjoy polka music.

I have never had a DJ come out to the dance floor and dance with the crowd. It was a lot of fun for him to join everyone. Everyone was dancing the entire night. The selection of songs was great and he really felt the mood of the crowd! One of the best dancing that I have ever seen at a wedding. - Katie and Jeff Laurendeau Josh was GREAT and he did an amazing job at keeping things moving. I had several girls approach me to book him for their weddings! Thank you again! - Rachel and Stephen Varnado "This job seemed perfect for me. I saw Complete Music DJs all the time when I worked at the Houston Street Ballroom, and so there wasn't another choice when it came to what I wanted to do with my weekends." - Josh How would you describe your DJ personality/style? I'm a very personal DJ. I like to read the crowd and play whatever they're dancing to. I really love it when customers make music suggestions and requests, because then I know what type of music will get people to stay on the dance floor. What is the funniest thing that ever happened at an event? I was pulled out on a country song to teach a young girl how to two-step. The bride asked if I knew how because her young cousin had no one to dance with. It made the bride happy and got more people dancing. What is your favorite party song? I have always been partial to the Cotton Eyed Joe. Why do you like performing at wedding dances? I used to be a hall manager and always enjoyed watching newlyweds dance to their first song as husband and wife. When I had the opportunity to become a DJ, I realized I could enjoy that dance even more. As a DJ I make the night, so getting out and teaching a new dance or making people have the time of their lives makes every night an enjoyable one.

Everything was fantastic! - Alejandro J Sune Patrick worked perfectly with the crowd. Thank you! - Carolyn Worthington Pat was the best DJ yet! The kids would love to have him back for homecoming. - Claudia Daily Our DJ was out and about checking to make sure everything was going great and the way we wanted. I was very happy with the DJ for our event. He was there to listen to everything we wanted and made sure our night was great. - Monica McCown I was very pleased with the service I received. Patrick was very courteous and took the time to make sure that I was happy. Thank you for making our date that much more special. - Trina Riffel “I realized right away that I was going to love this job because of the phenomenal feeling that I had seeing my effect on people at a dance. It makes me work that much harder to make people’s nights great." - Patrick Patrick has a pleasantly outgoing personality, and knows how to scale it back for more relaxed events. He is a people pleaser. What sets you apart from other DJ's? I separate myself from many DJ's with my broad diversity. I am not only fluent with all major music genres, but I strive to better my knowledge of the lesser known. Not only do I listen and understand the music, I like it! I can listen to almost anything and find a part of it that clicks with me in some way. What is your favorite party song? My all time favorite party song is Shout by Otis Dad and the Knights. Nothing ends the night better than dancing your face off to one of the most famous party tracks ever. That last 5 and a half minutes is my finale to the client. I let it all hang out and most guests do the same when they hear this song. It ends the night with everyone craving more. What is the funniest thing that ever happened at an event? I was DJing a wedding reception and it was time for the garter toss. The groom reached up her dress and got a puzzled look on his face. He then put his head up the dress to investigate further and came out looking more confused than before. He went back in one last time and came back out with a car air freshener. Everyone around me was laughing hysterically, but before I could decide if I thought it was funny or cruel she dropped him to the floor with the biggest haymaker slap I had ever seen. List one or more fun facts about you that most people do not know: Most people don't know that I really like to dance. Most guys of my build aren't much of the dancing type, but when I DJ, I hold nothing back. Nothing makes people more comfortable about coming out onto the dance floor than seeing the DJ get out there first and break the ice.

He is definitely not shy and enjoys doing lots of icebreakers. What is your favorite party song? I have many, but right now it is the Cupid Shuffle. How would you describe your personality as a DJ? My style changes with the event. I'm outgoing most of the time, yet I keep things on an appropriate level for the event. What is your favorite DJ memory? I was the DJ for a dance in Phillipsburg, KS. We all were having so much fun that I finally had to refuse a thrid hour of overtime because I had to drive back home. What is the funniest thing that ever happened at an event? I was asked to play Come On Eileen, and when I did, the group of frat brothers that requested it all dropped their pants and danced in matching boxers. What sets you apart from other DJs or what are your specialties? My music interests are wide and varied. I love all kinds of music. I'm a firm believer that I'm there for my customers and guests, so I believe that their requests should always be played. Also, I listen not only to what guests say, but what they want. I do my best to make it happen for them, even if I have to make a fool of myself. What is your proudest moment as a DJ? Being able to keep my cool during the Hoisington prom the night of the big tornado.

"Earl, I just completed the DJ survey and wanted to tell you: Thank you, thank you, thank you! You made Amanda and Brian's reception run so smooth and everyone had a blast! As a parent all that you can ask for is that your child's wedding day be a memorable one and Amanda said it was 'a perfect day'. Thank you for helping make it that way. You did a fantastic job!" - Dawn Brady (quote from facebook) Earl did a great job. He kept me in the loop on everything and was very willing to accommodate my requests. He was so good that my bridesmaids paid him to play an additional hour! – Shannon Foster Seemed like Earl actually enjoyed doing his job, it was if he was just as invested in making our event successful as we were. He was extremely friendly and willing to help with anything we needed, even things that had nothing to do with the music. Arrived early enough to do a sound check and make sure everything was perfect. Would definitely book again, and will suggest to others. Thank you so much! - Eric Benedict Earl was a fabulous DJ, I can't tell you enough how pleased Anthony and I were with him! Even though I have never worked directly with other DJ Company's I've seen first hand how much more prepared this company is for a huge event like this compared to the others. He had all the information needed on hand before we got to the Reception Hall and he knew exactly when to come and ask if we were ready to start the next big event, i.e. cutting the cake, spotlight dances, garder & bouquest toss. Our guests were very pleased with him as well, we are still receiving phone calls asking who he is and who he works for! Could not have asked for a better job of picking songs out to get the crowd going and showing alot of energy and enthusiasm throughout the entire night. Loved the DJ, loved the choice of songs, loved how easy you all were to work with. Very well done!!!! Made sure we were happy and kept things going until the time was up...Thank you Complete Music!!!! I has seen them at a couple other weddings and thought you all were amazing.....You were more personal and a lot more energy was giving by the DJ. Also Scott, the manager was great about keeping m,e informed about everything and answering all my questions ahead of time. I also got the DJ that I requested which was nice. He did a wonderful job and everyone loved him... Great job by entire company.....very very pleased. I loved Earl he just went out of his way to make everyone happy. Checked in several times with us to make sure we were all happy and had someone on the floor 99%of the time dancing........ - Kristina Pottroff “I love this job, it’s a blast to be part of a great party.” – Earl Earl is a hard working, hard playing kind of DJ. He is a western Kansas guy who is a down to earth and always ready to make sure everyone has a great time. How would you describe your personality as a DJ?
