It all started with a bartender named Muck who needed a DJ for a X-Mas party. He stopped over and asked if I would do it.  I said, “I’m not a DJ.” He said, “You have more speakers than the DJ's that have been playing there and look at how many CD's you have. Will you do it?"  So I did. Turned out I’m really good at it.

  Then he asked if I would do more there, so I built a set of speakers that were 6 feet tall. They were a pain to move around, but then after 2 or 3 weeks of doing it, people started asking me to do weddings and other bars. So I had to come up with a name witch is harder then I thought at the time. My brother helped me with it though. He said, “Why don't you call it lighting DJ.” I thought about it.  Well that night I was setting up the lights and it fell and “struck” me. I went to an after bar party and they said you should be called lighting struck the Dj. Well I took that and turned it into LIGHTING STRIKES DJ. That has been my life’s passion ever since.

   Then I got a bright idea to make it louder and with more power.  So I had a good friend of mine help me build some new ones that were 3 feet tall but a set of 4.  Well they still were 6 feet but easier to more around and it ran off, believe it or not, 12 volt amps, car amps with 2 chargers, and 4 marine batteries. It was loud. The only thing you had to plug in was the light and the cd players. Yeah me with cd players!  I hated having all the cd so I came up with idea to use my computer, a Pentium 1 200MHZ with 32 MB of ram.  It worked, but it could not hold all the songs. So I still had to use the cd players but not all the time.

   Then I got a partner and went to Sonics speakers and QSC amps.  Well there was one Mackie. Then he went back to work and so I bought him out.  But would fate have it, he started DJing again.  He has Sparky's Sounds.  You can look him up.  He is by Wausau now. For you that don't know he by Sparky his name is Mark.

   Now I use all Carvin tops 15' and Carvin bottoms 22' and QSC amps with 12 lights on my truss and foggers and black lights.  Oh Yeah my fav. Beer Bong. Then for smaller things, I have Sonics twin 15' and QSC amps, lots of lights in that one too. I like to have a good time but not a Jerry Springer time.  I wish some times I had the Jerry Bell for some of the parties I've done.
