Found in a forgotten folder... I don't remember who they are, but I really enjoyed their show at ULU Live... sadly lost after covid, the University of London turned the lecture theatre into something else. It was a popular small venue gig, with long history of live music, with many 'names' appearing... we were all quite upset with its closure. I saved the original vintage Strand mirrorball! Obviously.

City Day 2026
Thank you Southend-on-Sea City Council for inviting me to design and supply a 3rd iteration of DiscoCity .. the nostalgic look back to all the ballrooms, dance halls and nightclubs of Southend... starting with The Kursaal Ballroom. It was extra special because I had recently been given the mirrorball that used to be in the Kursaal Ballroom and had this in the DiscoCity DJ booth! It's a beautiful and immaculate 1950/60s Strand Electric design... amazingly it's the same design as the ball I 'rescued' from ULU London, when it closed. So to have a matching pair is quite something.

Also great to note that all the main suppliers (lights, sound, stages, power) are local companies.. like minded people who only want the best for Southend events.

Repost! I'd forgotten how nice these looked...

Back to the first Southend light festival, Luminocity in 2022, my lighting for the Cliff Gardens on the seafront. It was a look back to Never Never Land - which had a huge influence on me as kid... it was meant to be called Never Never Now, but marketing didn't like that and called in something else.. which was rubbish....

I love a customer returning as a friend... 10 years ago I illuminated Nicola's 40th and was very happy to be asked to light her 50th.
What a lovely party..
