Zoom meetings for DJs!


We are lovin' our on-line DJ meetings on Zoom! They are informal, fun, informative, and often funny! We talk music and dancing for 90 minutes and generally get to know our colleagues in the course of the conversation and laughter.


As you may know, we now send the meeting link to all of our members and encourage them to invite their fhyriends who are DJs or folks they know who aspire to become DJs but are unsure of how to get started. All are welcome!


Our next Zoom Meeting for DJs is scheduled for Sunday, September 11th at 7:00 PM EST, 6 PM Central, and 4 PM Pacific time! You may have noticed that we change the day of the month regularly to offer options for the DJs who are working on a set schedule.


Non-members may register by contacting Donna Conley at [email protected] or call 614-266-2386. Once you register for a Zoom meeting you will automatically be added to our regular online DJ meetings!


If you have a specific topic or question you would like to be discussed, please email the specifics in advance to our moderator, DJ Tom Claypool, at [email protected].


Please respect the rules of participation in the Zoom meetings. Do not share your access code to the meetings(s) with any individuals who are not members. Refer them to the contact info above to complete a one-time initial registration.

DEEJAYS ON THE RADIO!
Several of our member DJs have also been using internet radio broadcasting on a regular basis for a good number of years. Definitely worth visiting these quality broadcasts which are a great source of music for listening or dancing to beach, shag, oldies, blues, swing and more! Here's where you can find them:
DJ 'Fessa John Hook
On Jukin’ Oldies with Dancing On the Edge, Monday thru Friday, 3-6 pm
Red Hot Rockabilly Show 5-7 am Saturday
Beach Music Class Reunion Countdown Sat 8 am to Noon
Beach Music Top 40 Countdown Sat 4-7 pm
Roadhouse Blues Boogie and Fish Fry Sat 10 pm – 1 am
Facebook:
John Hook’s Beach Music Top 40
John Hook’s Roadhouse
DJ Rock Hall

At one time DJ Rock lived in North Carolina.  When he moved away he realized that he missed the music that was associated with the Carolinas.  DJ Rock then decided to bring beach, boogie and rhythm & blues music to listeners around the world.
