The 2025 Mobile Entertainment Expo will be February 17-20 at the South Point Casino Hotel in Las Vegas. On opening night there has traditionally always been a kick-off party to let loose and have fun with colleagues.
This year the party is hosted by Chris Washburn and he promises to deliver a fantastic event that will certainly get the expo off to a great start!
The "DJ Invasion" will feature 10 awesome DJs for your entertainment and held in the South Point's Night Club style Showroom. Sponsors D.A.S. Audio and Danny Max Designs have made sure this remains a FREE event for ALL FULL pass holders.
Join Chris as he reviews the entire evening's activities! 

EV changed the game with their Evolve 50 column loudspeaker back in 2017. It had everything a DJ would want and became one of the most popular and best selling column systems on the market.
Fans of the speaker wanted an even larger and more capable BIG brother to the series and EV listened!
Today on the program we speak with Michael Doucot, who is the Electro Voice Marketing Manager for North America! Michael goes into great detail to introduce the newest Evolution in column sound with this very first public interview about (2) brand new EV offerings! 
It is an honor to be the first podcast or news outlet to get this interview so get ready because EV has changed the game yet again!

Last year (2024) I had the pleasure of speaking with the general manager from the Southpoint Casino hotel in Las Vegas, Ryan Growney. With MEX (Mobile Entertainment Expo) approaching for 2025 I wanted to re-issue that interview because it was very detailed and provided a complete overview of the property.
If you are attending MEX & PBX this year and staying at the host hotel you will find this interview very productive! 

Nick James Hahn of Promo Only joins me for a very important and emotional reflection of what has been a 5 year journey with my health struggles. This may be the MOST important podcast I have ever recorded and I hope my DJ colleagues will listen with a open mind and consider how fragile our health really is. And once we don't have it all the other bell & whistles of the trade matter NOT! 
"This is MY personal health story!"
Mike Fernino - DJ Idea Sharing  

Part 1 was so good we are giving the topic a part 2. The discussion of Column Array Loud speaker systems continues with my guests Josh Levine & Brock Sailer. Josh and Brock pick right up where Tony & Lou left off in Part 1 of the series. 

We are discussing a very passionate topic. Our loud speaker systems. In particular, the very popular Column Array Systems. They are not for every application and you should know where they shine and where they come up short.
My guests are the founder of " Harvest of Sound" DJ workshop, Lou Paris. And show regular and audio genius Tony Fernandez! 
These guys know their stuff so if you have or want to get into column array speakers this program is a must listen! 

Mike Fernino speaks with Sr. Product Manager from Chauvet lighting Allan Reiss about the new effects premiered at DJ X 2024!
