Meet Your DJs

DJ G - Smooth


DJ Jess E - Silk


Jess and I have, what might be described as, a "different" taste in music. Some might call it good taste, and we'll certainly champion that, but we do love the music that we love. We're simply not familiar with what many consider to be popular or mainstream (not that there's anything wrong with popular or mainstream). So who better to play the hits we wanna hear than us?

What we're saying is, you might not hear a lot of the prototypical wedding songs (not that there's anything wrong with prototypical wedding songs). You probably won't hear "YMCA", and we probably won't be busting out the "Macarena" (not that there's anything wrong with those songs). It's just simply not our style.  Belle & Sebastian is more likely to be heard than Lady Gaga.  We will probably opt for the Dirtbombs over the Jackson Five.  And the Ramones will be played in lieu of Bon Jovi.  Not that there's anything wrong with Lady Gaga, the Jackson Five, or Bon Jovi.

There is also no pre-established dance floor at the Warhol. But this does not mean we are anti-dance. You can dance wherever you please. Strike a pose, air guitar, sing to your hearts content. We strongly encourage this (just please watch your drink if you're playing air guitar). But there may not be any collaborative efforts such as the "Chicken Dance" or the "Electric Slide" (not there's anything wrong with those dances).   Additionally, the lack of a prefab dance floor means there will be a lack of guys standing awkwardly to the side of the dance floor hoping that no one asks them to said dance floor (I can sympathize with that guy).

While we can not guarantee everyone will be familiar with everything we play, we can guarantee everyone will have a rawkin good time.

And for those Guided by Voices fans on the guest list, we are working out a special treat for y'all. We will pass on the news once it is confirmed. For those asking themselves, "Who is Guided by Voices?", simply Google: "Greatest rock band of all-time."
