We Know Ernie Can Dance!

We couldn’t be more proud of our extraordinary dancer, Ernie. We know he’s one of the best we’ve seen. His natural talent is something you have to see to believe. Ernie, however, keeps pushing himself to get better and to take his talent to the next level. He did just that on March 2nd and 3rd when he auditioned for “So You Think You Can Dance” Season 9 in Los Angeles.

Ernie was actually the first person in line at 5:30 AM the day before the auditions began. He did not have the opportunity to dance until 10:00 PM the next day. How amazing is that? He brings that same level of dedication to each event he works on for Rock The House, so this feat comes as no surprise to us. Out of the 500 dancers who auditioned in Los Angeles, Ernie made it to the top 20.

Once Ernie made it past the first round, it was a whirlwind of activities without stop for the next 48 hours. Photo shoots, video loops, and interviews about his life story all took place back to back. His second audition is where he knew he had to do something to stick out from the pack of other hip-hop dancers. He showed them stunt dancing like they had never seen including running the length of the wall where “So You Think You Can Dance” was written. This immidiatly excited the judges.

With one hour of sleep, jet-lag, and (most disappointingly) a knee injury (from the photo shoot of all places) his last audition didn’t go as well as the previous two did. Every judge loved not only his story but his attitude as well.

Everyone at Rock The House is incredibly proud of Ernie. He is one of our most requested dancers and a big favorite of guests. Ernie told us this was only his second audition of his life after the audition that earned him a spot on the Rock The House dance team. Los Angeles will not be his last. Season 10 will have one amazing talent auditioning next year. In the mean time, talk to us about our dancers today for your next event. www.RTHgroup.com

Rock Your Prom 2012 – Cleveland’s Best DJ / MC Team

Rock Your Prom 2012

Our first Rock Your Prom campaign has been a big success. We couldn’t be happier with the result of attention this has received due, in large part, to our partner 96.5 KISS FM Cleveland. KISS FM was the best type of partner we could ask for and we are excited to expand our already great relationship. We would also like to thank American Commodore Tuxedos for sponsoring this promotion. They had the insight to get on board for the first year of this and we’re hoping students take advantage of their services.

The winner will be announced Wednesday, March 14. We would like to thank everyone who voted and organized other voters.

We will be posting the big announcement very soon!

Rock The House Wins Two CBC CCA Awards in 2012

2012 CBC Magazine

Connector’s Choice Awards

On March 7th, 2012, CBC Magazine put on a remarkable networking and awards event – The Fifth Annual Connector’s Choice Awards at the The House of Blues. This event is one that all of us at Rock The House look forward to each year. In fact, this year, we had a group of 18 in attendance!

Presented by Cleveland Business Connects (CBC) magazine, the Connectors Choice Awards (CCA) is an annual awards presentation that is dedicated to recognizing the best and brightest individuals and groups that represent the local corporate event-planning industry as well as the professional networking community. [Cleveland Business Connects ]

The Rock The House team was excited and humbled to have won both the Best Audio Visual Technical Support Company for the 3rd year in a row as well as Best Entertainment Company. We know that the driving force of the voting was spear-headed by our clients and friends. That fact is what makes this award really special to the entire team.

Rock The House Founder/Owner, Matt Radicelli says:

“After a few years of being nominated for awards like these, its beginning to feel like we’re a boxer defending our titles.  The most amazing part to me, however, is that although we have to do quality work to get nominated, it’s the customers and fans that drive home the awards for us.”

We believe that winning this award three years in a row for Best Technical Support Company is very significant. It says that through consistent growth, we have emerged as one of the most sought after production company in Northeast Ohio due to our creativity and track record of executing magnificent events.

That said, winning the award for Best Entertainment Company is something that is really close to our hearts. After growing beyond the label of being exclusively a “DJ Company”, Entertainment is still a true passion of ours. Winning this award is proof that even though we have evolved as a company, our commitment to producing exciting and fun events remains the same.

Besides our elation at winning two awards at this event, we also felt that this evening itself was expertly put together.  Everyone involved did a fantastic job.  The House of Blues and CBC have grown this event each year by creating something people really look forward to. The food was incredible and was only made better by fantastic service staff members. Sharing the night with all of our partners, customers and friends in one place, makes for a very efficient networking and introducing potential business partnerships, which we in Cleveland really enjoy.  Matt Radicelli says:

“The Connectors Choice Awards is one of the few opportunities  we have each year to network with hundreds of our favorite event professionals and partners.  I believe that CBC does a great job producing the event, and House of Blues is the perfect location!”

Once again, we would like to thank everyone who voted for us and we expect this year to be even more exciting. For award winning event services such as: DJ/MC Entertainment, Lighting, Photo Booths, and Videography –visit RTHgroup.com

We won! Best in Show Booth Design – Akron Today’s Bride

We Look Good Making You Look Good!

This year’s bridal show season has been one for the record books. Rock The House has never had the chance to meet some many excited couples throughout the region. What made it easy to talk these couples was our beautiful booth design our team put together for the Today’s Bride Bridal Shows in Akron and Cleveland.

This booth was one that had those that passed by looking up as their jaws hit the floor! This impressive booth design was a true team effort. That said, we are in the business of making wedding receptions looks unique and gorgeous…why would our booth be any different?

We want to thank Today’s Bride Magazine and Bridal Shows for awarding us the Best in Show Booth Design award for the Akron Bridal Show. Their events are a big part of our formula for success and we’re glad they appreciate the effort that went into this design.

Rock The House provided event lighting that helped create this event’s signature look. With uplighthing, feature lights, and monogram gobo lighting, this event was able to have the atmosphere the couple envisioned.

Solon Community Center Got Rocked

Inflatables & More

Cleveland Bar and Bat Mitzvah DJs helped host a B’nai Mitzvah at the Solon Community Center in Solon, Ohio. The Rock The House DJs played music and provided MC host services for the event. Many exciting inflatable areas were created for the kids to have fun.  They also brought in party dancers to motivate the crowd to dance and participate at the party. 

Rock The House lighting also made a memorable impact on the event. The RTH Green Screen Photo Magic provided guests with a favor that was customized and unique. In addition, novelties such as fun hats and glasses were also handed out to guests for them to dress up with.

Check out the Rock The House website for more information on B’nai Mitzvah DJs or other event entertainment.

Rock The House Joins The Internet Blackout

RTH Fights Censorship!

On January 18th, 2012, Many of the most popular websites on the Internet took the day to protest the House Bill “SOPA” (Stop Online Piracy Act) and the Senate Bill “PIPA Act“. Some websites closed completely while others placed black bars over their logos. The campaign promotes the ending of online piracy but not at the expense of liberties.

Rock The House would like you to sign the petition to kill these bills before they even have a chance to be voted on.

https://www.google.com/landing/takeaction/

In solidarity, Rock The House has blacked out it’s logo on our website for the day.

Join us in the fight to keep the Internet free of censorship!
