The room scale

Add up the headline shows and it clears half a million people in the room, on top of 1.3 million a week on Chicago radio for a decade. Summer Bash ran eleven years across Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, Tinley Park and Toyota Park, and the 1999 Joliet show drew fifty thousand. Halloween Bash and Jingle Bash ran twenty-five thousand at Allstate Arena. The Super DJ Spin-Off in 2001 was a national bracket. He won it.

Booking

Clubs, festivals, residencies, corporate shows and brand events go through the booking page. Chicago based, plays anywhere. The DJ and live guitar set is on the table when the room can take it.

Press

Same channel for press, podcasts and interviews. Subjects he goes deep on: the early Chicago dance scene, the B96 years, Euro and progressive house getting a foothold in the Midwest, and dropping the DJ Smurf name for his own. The discography backs it up.
