RTH Gives Back – 2012 Solon Relay For Life

/in /by

18 Hours Running on Hope

Rock The House’s RTH Gives Back Program is dedicated to enhancing our community with our unique skills and assets. There are a wide variety of worthy causes that we give time and resources to because we love our community and we want it to be as strong as it can be.

Once again, Rock The House has provided MCs, sound equipment/production, and entertainment to the Solon Relay For Life. Over $42,000 was raised over the 18 hours of festivities that started on Friday, June 8th and continued straight through to Saturday, June 9th at 11:00 AM! Survivors between the ages of 8 and 80 were on-hand to celebrate with friends and family their success of beating cancer. It really gave hope to all who attended that a cure is possible with more research and money.

Our MCs and dancers were on hand to guide the event through every hour. In addition to keeping the flow of the event moving, Rock The House called on it’s many years experience creating and running games where everyone can be involved. 18 hours is a long time to party but we made it happen! We want to really applaud our team’s efforts because involvement in this event was purely voluntary on their part. When we say we have a commitment to our community we mean EVERYONE! The company gave it’s resources and equipment but these individuals gave up their time (very willingly) and its that level of commitment that makes us proud.

June 2012 Team Member of The Month

/in /by

DJ Shane ROCKS!

Each month, Rock The House Entertainment management chooses one team member who has exceededall expectations. With a team this passionate, it’s a harder job than you’d think. This month, however, Shane LaPlante really stood out. Not only did management feel Shane went above and beyond his job duties, but his peers did as well. He had a number of write-in votes for this honor by those he works with at each event.

Event Entertainment Disc Jockey

Shane has been a DJ with Rock The House since he joined the team in November of 2010. He established himself early as a driven team member by requesting sessions with senior DJs to learn as many tricks as he could. This drive was recognized as the start of a truly gifted entertainer. Other team members have stated that Shane pushes them to get better at what they do, and that is a trait that makes us all proud. Traditionally, our MCs are the leaders of our events, but this does not mean that the leadership mentality has to only be realized exclusively by the show leads. Shane leads by example. By making sure the client’s first impression of the DJ rig is always impressive (by keeping everything clean and taped down) he sets his other team members up for success.

Shane told us that his favorite part of an event is the moments of reflection after a show is complete. His drive pushes him to always look for ways things could have gone smoother, and to learn from the unique situations of every show. This hunger for growth and refinement is something you can’t teach. His advice to his team is to always smile and keep cool. It’s an entertainer’s job to stay in control and to be focused on the success of the event.  In doing so, an entertainer can adapt to any challenge.

One of the most impressive things about Shane is that he is one of the most requested DJs by both venue operators and Rock The House team leaders. It is pretty rare for a venue operator to request a DJ because they are not traditionally the event’s point of contact. Shane is proof that any member of our team, regardless of their role, can make a positive impression on our clients as well as industry peers.

Mitzvah Wedding Entertainment

When we asked Shane what it means to him to be a member of Rock The House, he said his training has given him the confidence to be on stage and never be nervous.  You can always tell that Shane is having fun, and that goes a long way in helping the guests have fun!

Thanks for all your hard work, Shane! You Rock!

Cleveland DJs celebrate a Pajama Themed Bat Mitzvah

Cleveland Bar/Bat Mitzvah DJs Rock The House helped Lindsay celebrate the special occasion at the Solon Community Center.  The Rock The House DJ / MC team brought unparalleled entertainment to Lindsay’s event. Our DJs are trained to read the crowd and have music knowledge that would make your head spin! These guys LOVE music of all kinds and they knew what this group would react to. Our Emcee was a true master of ceremonies in every sense of the word.  Even though everyone was in pajamas, no one was ready to go to sleep and let this party die down!

To make sure everyone is having the most fun possible, our Party Motivators made sure everyone had the best time on the dance floor. Our dancers are a group with unprecedented skills.  Graffiti Rock was also a big hit with all the kids at the party.  The photo technician first took a picture, then featured it on a big screen were you could “spray paint” over and change the picture however you wanted!  It was a truly great addition to an already stellar party.

Rock The House Entertainment has been the leading entertainment provider for Bar and Bat Mitzvahs in Northeast Ohiofor over a decade. Let us show you what we can do for your next simcha – www.RTHgroup.com

Our DJs ROCKED at Barley House

AJ’s Bar Mitzvah at Barley House in Beachwood, Ohio was an exciting one! The Rock The House DJ / MC team brought entertainment to all guests with one of the most fun packages – The Video Dance Party. The Rock The House Video Dance Party brings another element to the dance floor. It gives our DJs the ability to play music videos of the songs being played as well as the chance to put the excitement of the night’s dance floor on the big screen.

To make sure everyone is having the most fun possible, our Party Motivators made sure everyone had the best time on the dance floor. Our dancers are a group with unprecedented skills. When they are moving on the dance floor...the guests took pictures! Another trick we have are our novelties. Nothing gets our dancing guests excited like light-up hats, sunglasses, and more.

Each guest had the opportunity to leave the event with our Green Screen Photo Magic framed photo. AJ and his family were able to choose their own custom backgrounds for photos available all evening.

Amanda’s Bat Mitzvah at Pazzo’s in Parma, Ohio was really fun for us. The Rock The House DJ / MC team brought unparalleled entertainment to Amanda’s event. Our DJs are trained to read the crowd and have music knowledge that would make your head spin! These guys LOVE music of all kinds and they knew what this group would react to. Our Emcee was a true master of ceremonies in every sense of the word. They coordinated with all the other event professionals the timeline that Amanda’s family had decided on. They ensured that everyone was able to relax and be a guest at their own event.

To make sure everyone is having the most fun possible, our Party Motivators made sure everyone had the best time on the dance floor. Our dancers are a group with unprecedented skills.

2012 Pink The Rink Wrap-Up Video

/in , /by

Rock The House enjoys a great partnership with The Lake Erie Monsters and the annual Pink The Rink event is a yearly highlight of that relationship. Each year, The Lake Erie Monsters Hockey team raises awareness as well as money for cancer research. Quicken Loans Arena was awash in pink-clad hockey fans ready for a great time and we are proud to have helped.

Here’s our wrap-up video from the event:

Rock The House dancers had a great time with many of the kids attending the game. Our Rock The House stage on The Q concourse had dozens of kids of all ages dancing, singing, and having a great time between periods of the game. Our DJs, MCs, and dancers were able to both have fun and show off their skills.

Another reason everyone at Rock The House looks forward to Pink The Rink is that the entire team is welcome to attend the event with their families. We had over 100 tickets and that’s one big group!  One of our sections was even on the Q-Tube Score Board.

Rock The House also was retweeted on the Q-Tube with this tweet:

@igotrocked: @tweetqtube The best hockey fight is when The Monsters fight cancer! #PinkTheRink

This event is for such a great cause and we are really excited to have been asked to help. If your next event is looking for that something special to bring it to the next level, give us a call.

Benjamin Got ROCKED! Cleveland Mitzvah DJs at The Temple Tifereth Israel

/in , , /by

Benjamin got ROCKED at the The Temple Tifereth Israel, in Beachwood, Ohio on March 17, 2012.

Cleveland, Ohio Bar and Bat Mitzvah DJs, Rock The House entertained hundreds of guests at a truly remarkable Bar Mizvah. Known throughout the Northeast Ohio region as the premier event entertainers with their DJ / MC division. Rock The House Entertainment Group is far more than entertainers, however. This event is a great example of all the divisions working together on a memorable party.

The lighting division took center stage for this Simcha with uplights, gobo monograms, pin spotting, dance floor lighting, and more all coordinated by our on-site lighting designer. This helped create a club-like setting for this basketball-themed event.

Check Out This Video From Benjamin’s Bar Mitzvah

Extra entertainment like tattoos and novelties meant that the attendees had attractions to keep them entertained at all times. Our Photo Booth division provided the event with our Green Screen Photo Magic for not only an activity but also a custom favor for all guests.

These divisions and our videography division are what make Rock The House unique in our region and in the country as one of the most sought after companies for memorable events.

Karmin Got ROCKED!

/in /by

The hot Pop duo of Karmin came to Cleveland as part of their Radio Tour to promote their upcoming album “Hello” in April 2012. The group came to 96.5 KISS FM Studios to perform for a select group of lucky fans.

This duo has blown up relatively quickly with exposure through Ellen, reddit, and YouTube. This engaged team has recently been signed to Epic Records for a soon to be released full-length album. The most exposure they have ever received was a recent appearance as the musical guests on Saturday Night Live.

Rock The House enjoys our relationship with KISS FM Cleveland, especially when we can provide lighting, sound, video, and production services to this Clear Channel Radio Station for their in-house performances.

Rock The House Wins Two CBC CCA Awards in 2012

/in /by

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.
