We love our clients!

We recently received an extremely nice "thank you" letter from the class advisor for a Junior/Senior Prom we DJ'd and did the lighting for at the Valley Forge Convention Center.

"Although this may be an overlooked task, I feel that I must bring to your attention the outstanding customer services I received from your company and especially your DJ's, Chris and Dan at the 2009 Junior/Senior Prom.

I am, of course, very delighted to have had the pleasure of working with your company for our prom. Throughout the entire process, you and your staff made our prom quite successful. We were impressed by the DJ's professional and courteous attitude, expert knowledge and patience in dealing with the staff at the Valley Forge Convention Center, our students and the faculty at the prom.

In the past, our students have not had as good of an experience with the DJ's at the prom. But not this year, our principal remarked that this was one of the best prom's we have held in years and I think that is in part to your excellent service. Synergetic Sounds was definitely the correct choice for our Junior/Senior prom and I will do what I can to help retain your services at future events."

It was wonderful working with you and we really appreciate your kind words!

Senior Prom at the Merion

In early May we had the privilege of DJ'ing a Senior Prom at The Merion. Dan I. was the DJ and he had nothing but great things to say about the students and their prom! "The immense spiral staircase and marble floors and columns in the lobby of the Merion give you the feeling that you are in the Coliseum of Rome. And the appropriately titled theme “When in Rome,” was a great addition to the atmosphere of this extravagant night," Dan said. After enjoying the wonderful food prepared by the Merion's chefs. the students made their way onto the dance floor.

Throughout the night students made their way to the DJ table to make their requests and talk to Dan. The students danced all night long. Dan played a wide variety of genres and music to satisfy the diverse song requests of the students and staff and at the end of the night he received tons of complements and high fives. The students even had a “DJ” chant going.

Thanks Dan for a great job! Below are some images courtesy of Stephanie Butchin at Broken Glass Images.

Pennsbury Prom

Every year Pennsbury High School puts on one of the most spectacular proms in the country (there was even a book written about it). Instead of having their prom at a hotel or country club, they choose to turn their school into a decorated dream land. Every inch of the school is covered with that year’s theme, this year it was "A Novel Night." It looks nothing like a high school when all is said and done.

Once a theme is chosen, the preparations begin. Each year they paint murals reflecting their theme to hang in the gym and throughout the hallways. The hallways are covered in murals and in some places, life size diaramas. The gym is completely draped out in black and is turned into something you would see at a concert. The largest murals are hung there.

Before the prom starts, hundreds of people line the main driveway to the school to watch the students arrive. It is tradition to try and arrive at the prom the coolest, most original way possible. Helicopters, fire engines, trailers, whatever you can think of, they have done it. It takes about 2 hours to get all the students into the school. Once they exit their transportation, they walk a red carpet into their prom.

During the prom, dinner is served and there are two separate hypnotists that the students can go to. But the big show happens at midnight. Each year, the school tries to get a big act to surprise the students. A few years ago John Mayer played, this year it was Ryan Cabrera. He did a 4 song set that the students loved.

This is one of our favorite events of the year! We get the chance to be as creative as we can be and as you can see from the pictures, we don’t let them down. Thank you Pennsbury, for allowing us to be a part of this great event.

Thanks so much to our friend Jenn Childress, Jenn Childress Photography, for the amazing pictures! You rock Jenn!

Senior Prom, Sheraton Center City

We did a Senior Prom on Saturday night at the Sheraton City Center for about 800 students. They booked our truss rig that is put up around the entire dance floor. We used 100 feet of truss, 10 intelligent lighting fixtures and about 48 par cans for up lighting. Our PA system consisted of the JBL VRX Line Array speakers, one of the best small line arrays available. That room was jumpin!

Here are some pictures of the set up and the prom.
