Last night (23rd October 2008) I had a call from the NSPCC who needed help and fast. They wanted a fire breather to do a stunt at the Colchester United Football Club at 10.00am today (24th October). Well here is the photo of me in action. I'm the guy breathing fire at the back. This picture was taken by David at www.stourvalleyphotography.com Now where does this lead to. They are having a Ball on Saturday 29th November 2008 at the Colchester United Football Club stadium. I will now be their toastmaster and here's hoping that someone out there may buy some tickets for an excellent night out in aid of the NSPCC. If you would like to come and watch me work, just for a change, here I am at a charity function and I would love to see you all there. Details of how to get your tickets are shown below and thank you for reading this and considering having a ball!!!!! Please go to www.colchesternspccbusinessgroup.org.uk to get your tickets or join their group or make donations.

A kind letter from Joanne and Jonathan, who had their wedding, wedding breakfast and evening party at Layer Marney Tower, Essex on Thursday 7th August 2008, where we provided music for their civil ceremony and wedding breakfast, a P.A system, sound system and evening disco. Dear Richard, We are writing to Thank You for creating the right atmospher for our wedding. The music for the Corsellis Room was perfect - we have since walked into two shops and they started playing Pachwlbel - Canon in D! Our first dance will always be a treasured moment and the disco had everyone dancing. It was enjoyed by all! Thank you once again, Joanne and Jonathan
Yes the picture above right is a rodeo sheep!!!!
The pictures above should make it clear that you can have a fantastic party at Hylands House with the right guests and the right DJ and especially the right bride and bridegoom. Mia and Hunts, your choice of music was spot on for a stunning party and Mia you certainly know how to entertain.
These thank you details are from Tony & Louise's wedding, wedding breakfast and evening party at Channels on Friday 14th March 2008 and there was a power cut in the area, but we carry a battery backed up system which runs with an excellent quality sound, (made by BOSE, so it would do). Tony and I would like to say a huge thank you for all that you did for us on our wedding day. You were a life saver with the music especially during the power cuts. Without your professionalism and equipment we would have had a very different ceremony and evening reception. We thank you for playing our music for the ceremony, this made it even more special for us. We really enjoyed ourselves and all our guests said they had a great time and that is down to you and your disco. Many thanks Tony and Louise
The music was brilliant and the lighting really set off Channels to its best. We have had nothing but good reports from all of our friends and everyone really enjoyed themselves. I have never seen so many people dancing at a wedding before. If you need any references then please let us know Andy and Victoria xxx.
The confetti canons which went off during our first dance were magical and also made for some lovely photographs. However, the icing on the cake had to be the inflatable guitars which you threw out during the night, everyone thought it was brilliant, made dancing to Queen so much more interesting. Richard, we are genuinely so grateful to you and the boys for making our whole day run so smoothly, it really would not have been the same with anyone else. Your generosity from day one has been outstanding, we truly thank you. We would highly recommend you to everyone, and please do not hesitate to call upon us for a reference should you ever need one. With our sincere gratitude and Best Wishes Louisa and Ian"

After the celebration becomes a kaleidoscope of memories and sounds, one element stands out- The sight and sounds of Classic Nomad! 'Lynda and I would like to thank you and your team for a tremendous show at our 60th birthday bash at Hylands House last Friday 25th May. Your choice of music was superb and blended perfectly with the atmosphere in each room. To this add your discreet management of the guests, meant that Lynda and I could relax and mingle with our guests knowing that you were quietly keeping an experienced eye on all of the needs of our guests. Then the disco. Your skill and smooth professionalism as a DJ was only surpassed by your collection of music which had all the guests amazed! We have never seen our friends dance so much or so enthusiastically. A big thank you again Richard for your help and advice and your enthusiastic extra input you gave in managing the evening, which made our enjoyment so much more appreciated. Watch out for our booking of Lynda's seventieth. Our very grateful thanks and regards.' Nigel and Lynda
'We would like to say thank you for all your help and advice leading up to our wedding day and of course everything that you did on the day. As our DJ we thoroughly enjoyed the music and were dancing until the close. It was a fantastic day and wouldn't have been the same without you. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend you for family or friends.' Sarah and David
You came highly recommended and did not disappoint us. It was a pleasure working with you before and during the event. You and your team made that extra effort to ensure that the night was a success. It was the little details, in particular dressing up as a ringmaster to fit in with the theme of the evening, which helped add that extra special touch to the event. I would have no hesitations about using you for any future events. Many thanks for all your hard work and effort.' Joshua Ejdelbaum Cambridge University Jewish Society Ball President 2007
'Just a note to thank you very much for your time, care and attention. Your assistance was greatly appreciated by Sarah and I at every stage of our wedding. Your enthusiasm and professionalism made our day easier to enjoy and all the more special. I will certainly be recommending your services to any of my friends or colleagues looking for a DJ or Toastmaster. All the best and kind thanks' Adam and Sarah
'We wanted to pass on our sincere thanks to you for helping to make our wedding day the most special and perfect ever. You went to a lot of trouble to make sure the music, lighting and smoke machines(!) were just as we wanted them to be and we really appreciate your efforts. The day went just how we wanted and we are grateful for your contribution, in particular the Harry Potter music to the fireworks which exceeded our expectations and made the fireworks even more spectacular and magical. Thanks again. We would have no hesitation in recommending you.' Richard and Sonia
We received a thank you card saying "Thank you for your contribution to making our special day absolutely unforgettable. You absolutely made our night. Thank you once again and we wish you every success for your future nights (especially at Gaynes Park) Our very best wishes, Giles and Amelia.
'Thank you so much for your help at the wedding - your support in helping run things smoothly really took the stress out of the day. Everyone enjoyed the dancing. Thanks' Amudha and Chris Stock Brook Golf & Country Club Rosewood Suite Sunday 23rd July 2006
'Thank you so much for providing us with such brilliant music from the moment our guests arrived to the moment they left. You were fantastic and we have had so many compliments about you. We had the most perfect and amazing wedding day which we will remember forever. Thank you for helping to make our day so very, very special. With love' Melissa and Jason Vaulty Manor 20th August 2006
'Thank you, so very much for all that you did in helping to make Helen and Shahram's wedding day so perfect. We were all so pleased with how smoothly everything went and at what pace the events of the day unfolded, mostly thanks to you. You did an excellent job in the evening as our DJ, the disco was exceptionally good. Many thanks once again.' Patricia and Graham (Helen's parents) The Talbooth 16th September 2006 And from Helen and Shahram 'Thank you so very much for making our wedding day so perfect. ' 16th September 2006. We thought we would say a MASSIVE thank you for making our day the best day of our lives. We know it sounds a bit soppy but you (and also your colleague) made everyone very relaxed and happy and it was an absolute pleasure for you to be at our wedding!!!! Everyone commented on your music and how brilliant it was. The music you played was fantastic - everyone was up dancing - I think quite a few people didn't get a chance to sit down! When looking at the pictures in the evening of the wedding everyone looks like they are having a fantastic time and that's all we really wanted - for everyone to have a memorable and happy day!!! Once again thank you so much for being our DJ!!!!!' Mark and Sonya Stock Brook Golf and Country Club 19th August 2006
'Thank you very much for doing the music for us. You put on a fabulous show. The decoration was brilliant to fit in with our theme perfectly. The whole set up looked beautiful and could not have been better in any way. The lights looked stunning with all the different colours and effects. Everyone I spoke to afterwards said the music was wonderful. The music which we had chosen worked really well I thought. Everyone commented on how varied the selection was, and I am very grateful to you for managing to judge which songs to play depending who was on the floor. It has to be said that your selection of music was enormous, it is hard to believe that there is any song you could not have played. Once again thank you so much for providing such marvellous entertainment and for ensuring that, that part of the evening went smoothly. Thank you' Alice Layer Marney Tower 30th August 2006
'We can not believe that our wedding day was over a month ago. The wonderful memories we hold make it feel like yesterday. We just wanted to write and thank you for being our DJ at our wedding, we both had a truly amazing day and you ensured that we enjoyed every second of it. The whole day was just perfect, and it was all superbly managed by you. Your professionalism and personality were outstanding and you made both us and our guests feel comfortable and relaxed. The evening disco was the best that we have ever seen at a wedding, the library of music that Classic Nomad has and the rig set up was fantastic and we have been told by our guests that all music requests were met. Once again we would like to thank you for making our special day an unforgettable experience. We wish you every success for the future and would not hesitate to recommend your services.'

We are trying to give you a true impression of how we present ourselves and our equipment. Our Music Library Room and probably the largest music library in private hands in the country! Our main music library is based at our headquarters where we try to keep all of the most popular music in stock, but in the unlikely event of us not having what you want, we will buy it. Our complete library has more than 212,892 titles, which we believe is the largest music library in the mobile disco business. We keep updating the catalogue as new music arrives. There is movement on a regular basis, as we continue to sort the music into appropriate sections. The shelves on the main wall are 8 feet high and it is so good to have all our music library in one room. This is only a part of our music stock. On our main rig, we take out over 28 boxes of music, this equates to over 48,000 titles (please see the picture below for an indication of how much music we carry). We are very lucky to have the support of David Court www.courtoncamera.co.uk who has updated the library picture, to give you a better indication of the size of our music collection. We have a comfortable area for meeting our brides and grooms (please see pictures below). You can go through your plans for your day, discussing your music and your instructions, so that your day will be how you want it to be. You are able to view past weddings that we have worked at, on a very large screen (84") with surround sound, to help you get ideas about your wedding day and what you would like us to do for you. We have re-equipped the room to make it more comfortable and offer further services.
Equipment For Hire A range of equipment to help you with ideas for your wedding day is available for you to choose from. The following items are only a taster of what we are able to offer and if you have any special requests, we may be able to help you.
