Captain Dave’s Classic Rock and Dance

‘21 Certificate of Excellence

Hi. Thanks for considering Captain Dave’s Classic Rock and Dance. Please click on my reviews. First, some honesty up front… If your event will include guests whose ages are mostly under 40, we’re probably not a good fit. Or, if your group prefers mostly current music or Rap, EDM, Trance, etc, we’re not a good fit. BUT....If your group has folks of all ages, or is generally over 50 - especially Boomers - then we have a very good fit. At 69 years young, I've already got a pretty good idea of what the "Boomers" might like to hear. Plus, we’ll use your own playlist, and take requests during your special event. Whether it's your holiday office party, wedding, a highschool or college reunion, fundraiser, corporate or community event. Any special party that needs a huge diversity of music genres. Captain Dave's Classic Rock and Dance boasts a HUGE music library from Big Band to Bruno Mars; music for grandparents to grandkids. Plus your playlist and requests during your event! Big Band, Sinatra, Country, Beach/Shag, Line Dancing (Pop and Country) Rock, Motown, Disco, Classic Rock, Buffett, Reggae, Dance, Oldies,Southern Rock, much more. Excellent mic and MC skills. Raised in Fairfax County, I can travel from Hampton Roads, VA, where I currently live on my sailboat, to Northern VA. Went to Langley High school in Mclean. Class of 73. Mom is still living in the same house I was raised in! The standard service includes two 300 watt speakers, mixer, on site back up system, dance floor lights, uplighting, wireless mics. For some groups that don't require a microphone provided by Captain Dave, and really just need some nice background or sing along music, we have a couple of powerful Bluetooth tower speakers that can provide just the right musical ambiance. Your venue might already have a microphone system. Carefully monitored music volume allows folks to carry on normal coversations while tapping their toes! If your guests want to relive some great times, create some new memories, or your party includes a mix of ages and musical tastes, then we're your best choice! Please check out my FaceBook page “Captain Dave’s Classic Rock and Dance” Whether it’s a wedding, Highschool reunion, birthday, community or corporate event, I look forward to discussing your special event. And, yes, I'm a real Captain. USCG 100 ton Sailing Master.

What’s the secret to keeping a party dancing all night long?

The key to a great event is the ability of your DJ to match the mix and mood of your guests. So a great DJ should be able to read the “energy” or mood of your attendees. If the DJ is inexperienced, young, or has a limited library, he or she may not even have or know what they like! And the music is WAYY too loud. For groups that are older, you have to know your 60’s, 70’s and 80’s great songs. I lived it.

How would you describe your ‘style’?

My style is creating an atmosphere that reflects the personalized choices of my clients. My style is YOUR style. However, if your group is looking for current music, Rap, Metal, etc, I'm not your best choice. Typically, I'll provide a mix of quiet background music for the early portion of the event, and build to the dancing portion of the event. Monitoring music volume is especially important for older groups.

What do you love most about your job?

I love watching a full dance floor. I love creating a memorable event for my clients. Whether it s a private event, or at at a restaurant or bar.

I love it when someone comes up to me and tells me a quick story they were reminded of because of a particular song I played. For many folks, music IS the soundtrack of their lives.

What inspired you to start your own business?

It was just kinda a natural progression. Was listening to my AM transistor radio in the 60’s. Comedy sketches in high school in the early 70’s. College radio at JMU in the 70’s. Then a friend asked me to do some DJ work in a local bar. Using cassettes! From there, I bought my first sound system, with two turn tables. 45’s and LP’s. Created “EarCandy Music” At one point, I had 3 complete record libraries, and two other jocks working for me. That was in Harrisonburg VA. Later moves back to Northern VA, where I continued to “spin records” for Nards, Great Golden Aces, Lyric. As well as my own private gigs.

Bottom line for us, We love to watch people of all ages having a great time.

Why should our clients choose you?

Honestly, if your event includes primarily guests who are in their 40's and younger, we’re not the entertainment you want. But, if you have a mix of ages, especially Boomers, and require excellent Master of Ceremony ability, then please give us a call.
Because of my years of experience reading audiences, and vast library of music, I feel confident I can help make your special party a truly memorable event for ALL of your guests. And especially you! Thanks for taking the time to read all our info. Dave Wilbar 757-620-4042
