Philadelphia Band Agency… and DJ???
There seems to be a new trend in Philadelphia… band booking agencies selling DJ services. I think it’s worth mentioning that – for the most part – I’m on pretty good terms with my competition, and by competition I mean both the area’s larger and more prominent Disc Jockey companies, as well as the independent...

What CEE Means to Me…
I was just a little girl (around ten years old) when I first “met” Cutting Edge Entertainment at my brother’s Bar Mitzvah, where I was carried into the room by one of the dancers (Pedro). Dancing since the age of three, I would have never thought I would be performing in front of people as... Read More
A Beatles Journey: So Far
So here I find myself, almost a year after my first blog post about The Beatles, and subsequent meandering journey in search of Beatles lore. I read someplace that you know you are obsessed with something when in the instance the subject is brought up in conversation, everyone in earshot turns to look at you. ... Read More
Danielle & Brad’s Wedding at The Rittenhouse
On Sunday April 25, 2010, I had the opportunity to be the MC at Danielle and Brad’s wedding reception. The party was at the Rittenhouse Hotel in Philadelphia, and it was truly amazing. People were dancing the entire night, and I had a lot of fun being a part of the action. A couple... Read More

Don’t Call It a Comeback…
When tossing around ideas for my “Return to Cutting Edge Entertainment” blog post, those famous opening lines from the LL Cool J classic ‘Mama Said Knock You Out’ kept ringing in my head as a perfect opening… “Don’t call it a comeback / I’ve been here for years” Literally, I have been here for years....

Nicole’s Bat Mitzvah at The Helicopter Museum
On Saturday, May 22 of 2010 Cutting Edge Entertainment had the opportunity to perform for Nicole’s Bat Mitzvah at The American Helicopter Museum in West Chester, Pennsylvania. With most Bar & Bat Mitzvah clients, we deal with Mom and Dad from the booking stage all the way through planning, but once in a while I... Read More
A Sunday Wedding at The Lake House Inn
Wedding season is in full swing, and I have plenty of weddings I’ll be blogging about for a long time to come. For now, let me tell you about a wedding I did recently at the Lake House Inn on a Sunday afternoon. The weather couldn’t have been more perfect, and neither could the outcome... Read More
Gaffers Tape
When Cutting Edge Entertainment provides a DJ or lighting for an event, we are careful to secure cables or tape down wires, and we only use gaffer’s tape, or “gaf” tape. Gaffers tape is more expensive than duct tape (about four times the price), but it doesn’t leave the sticky residue that duct tape leaves... Read More
