Mountain Charley's in Los Gatos, CA
Tonight at Mountain Charley's in Los Gatos, CA I'm going to be DJ'ing and teaching line dance lessons for FREE! That's right, no cover charge. The Giants will be on the TV's there kicking Detroit's butt before the music starts at 9pm. Round up some friends and come dancing!
This evening KRTY brought Thomas Rhett out to South First Billiards in San Jose, CA. Nate & Tina heard him play in Las Vegas recently and just had to have him come play here! He played an acoustic set including "Whatcha Got in that Cup," "Beer with Jesus," "Front Porch Junkie," & his latest radio single, "Something to Do with My Hands."
One guy from the crowd wanted him to sing a song his dad, Rhett Akins, made popular, "That Ain't My Truck." Rhett went one step further and brought the random audience member to sing with him!
Rhett also sang, "I Ain't Ready to Quit," a song he wrote that Jason Aldean recently recorded.
Afterwards, Rhett met all the fans who came out & signed autographs. Seems like a truly decent guy. I wish the best for him & his career.
This Wednesday night October 5th, Gloriana will be in concert at Rodeo Club in San Jose, CA! I'm going to be teaching line dance lessons before the show and DJ'ing for line dance & country couples dancing as well.

Last night I DJ'ed and taught line dance lessons at a 50th birthday party in San Francisco, CA!
They started the evening out with an amazing spread from a local catering service and I played some country music in the background.
After dinner we provided some fun & easy line dance lessons and then played Top 40 and 70's by request.
These people surprisingly had some stamina and danced the night away!

Tonight I taught line dance lessons at a wedding reception in Danville, CA!
The bride and groom had booth competed on a line dance team and wanted to share their love of dancing with their family and friends at the wedding.
Everyone had a fun time learning some fun & easy lessons and then the bride & groom got a chance to show off their skills with some more advanced dances after. The father & mother of the bride enjoyed the entertainment so much that they invited me back to teach at a second reception a few weeks later. Love my repeat customers! :)

I listened to Elliot Randall's Caffeine & Gasoline on their preview site and it sounds worth checking out live. They are playing at the Independent in SF tomorrow night. Hope to see you there!
"Elliot Randall & The Deadmen, an emerging Americana/Outlaw Country band from San Francisco (although Elliot is originally from Charleston, SC). They've had a great year in 2010. They independently released their sophomore album "Caffeine & Gasoline" on February 9th and just weeks later debuted on the Americana radio charts at #28. They remained on the charts for seventeen weeks in the top 30. This was in the company of national acts like Patty Griffin, Band of Heathens, Lyle Lovett and the Crazy Heart Soundtrack. They also had the opportunity this year to support many national acts coming through town including Wynonna, Martina McBride, Steve Miller, Reckless Kelly, and the list goes on." - Dianna Arnspiger, Band Manager
Lets show them a Bay Area welcome and get out to the Independent!

Viva Las Vegas! Time for National Finals Rodeo 2010! Wbo's in?
Finally, after how many years of saying that I'm gonna go to National Finals Rodeo... I found a steal of a deal on a place to stay and decent Southwest Airlines tix! Many thanks go out to my friend who let me use her hotel vacation points to go. If you are looking for flights, Virgin America still has some good prices!
If you haven't heard about it before, National Finals Rodeo is the most amazing gathering of rodeo lovin, boot & Wranglers wearin, straw & felt hat wearin party that is hosted each year the first week in December. People come from all over the world to experience the rodeo, the tack shows and of course, the after parties!
Tues Dec 7th, I will hop on a plane to Las Vegas for the National Finals Rodeo. Many of my friends are going to show up the next day and we will invade for Cowboy Christmas! I will definitely try to go to the actual rodeo competition while there, but what's even more fun is to meet people who like country music and rodeo even more so!
The other day I found the official National Finals Rodeo iPhone app, so the only problem I'll have is figuring out which events to attend. It has all the actual rodeo events, as well as the after parties listed. Yep, I'm a high tech redneck!
Are you going to National Finals Rodeo? What events are you going to? I will be there Tuesday Dec 7th through Saturday Dec 11th, so if you are going, it would be awesome to meet up at one of the after parties or the craps table! Hit me up on Twitter! @ask4adam. #NFR will be the hashtag for the week.
Yes, I am still alive! And yes, this blog still exists! Since writing herelast, I have practiced on KRTY a few more times and forgot to let y'all know here. Apologies for that. Some of you were listening, requesting songs and staying up past your bedtimes, and for that I thank you!
While staying up past most people's bedtime and practicing the skills of a radio DJ are fun and exciting, I must take a break from those activities to focus on some other things in life, such as paying the bills. I know, I know, that sounds really old and boring and "I can sleep when I'm dead." Some of the things that will be getting more of my attention are CPR classes in San Jose and Ask4Adam.com (where a new site will soon exist).
Before anyone gets any ideas, I'm still with KRTY in event marketing and social media, and there will hopefully be some new and exciting things in that arena, but for now, I am taking a break from learning to be a radio DJ. I am eternally grateful to our Program Director for giving me the opportunity to learn and grow in my radio career.
My hope is that you stick with me on this blog and hear some other tales of intrigue and mystery...or at least some good country fun!
Have a great Sunday afternoon and go 49ers! :)

Hello Friends!
Happy "National Kiss & Make Up Day!" I don't know how you get a national day commemorating the use of PDA to make up for being dumb, but hey, they have days celebrating less enjoyable activities!

And on a third note, please stay up late on 8/31 and tune in to 95.3 KRTY when the clock strikes midnight. That's when I'll be on the radio next!
