Leslie and Dave

When Leslie was asked to DJ for a School benefit recently, she was pretty excited about the party. Besides helping as the "reader" for the auctioneer and raising 63k in funds for the school, she played some great tunes for the parents to boogie down to throughout the night. Leslie was thrilled when parent Dave Matthews broke out his guitar, plugged into Leslie's mixer and let an alum student perform a song. Then he gave a speech that was awe inspiring. After his time on stage, Dave ended up dancing the night away with his wife on the dance floor, grooving to the Ramones and the Violent Femmes. Leslie made a new friend, connected through music. We get so many requests for Dave's music, especially the great song You and Me, which we've used for more than one first dance and even during a wedding ceremony. The event was a huge success thanks to Dave and DJ Leslie's performance. Leslie's been asked to DJ again, and is excited for next year's event!
