Description
AVAILABLE TO HOST YOUR WEDDING RECEPTION, CLASS OR FAMILY REUNION OR ANY OTHER SPECIAL EVENT! Unmatched music selection and lots of ideas will make it fun. Need sponsors? I can help! Entertaining southern West Virginia on the radio for 35 years now on great radio stations like 103-CIR, 97.5 WQBE, Classic Rock 105.5 WKQV, The Big Dawg 99.5 WJLS FM, 98.7 The Beat, Power Country 105.9 WTNJ, 96.1 The Wolf, The BOSS 97FM, Currently 3-6pm M-F on West Virginia's Big Daddy 100.7. My drivin'home road show is the longest running in the region.
The regions very first mobile entertainer working as a REAL RADIO PERSONALITY hosting special FAMILY events, on-air radio promotions, charity work and fundraisers. My afternoon road show is now in it's 34th year!
Being a lifetime radio/event personality allows me to share the many ideas used in hosting more than 5,000 successful events just like yours will be. A tradition since since 1977.
I grew up here, married my childhood sweetheart here and have raised my kids right here in the area. This is lifetime career choice. Guess it's too late to turn back now but man is it has been fun! Currently ranked # 2 in the Nation on gig masters through my parent 'Abe One Deejays' network of professional entertainers.
Important Lesson: Only high standards are achieved only by honesty and integrity. Clients are treated with the respect they deserve. The past 33 years speak for themselves. I support my wife and girls only by being a REAL DJ!
Objective: To offer quality assurance and unmatched excellence in the radio and mobile entertainment industries alike. Nothing less.
The Purpose Of This Site: Is for those who wish to book me personally aside from my parent company 'Abe One Deejays and Karaoke'.
Promise: I will personally host your event. You will be booking me and no one else with experience having hosted some of the best wedding receptions throughout the east coast over the past 33 years.
Gratitude and Thanks: To a great crew and a wonderful family. My wife Tracey and I are blessed with two beautiful brides (daughters) of our own. As the father of two lovely girls, wedding reception pricing is no mystery, This is the sole reason that a deposit charge for my brides-to-be will NEVER exist.
Dedication: Having personally trained a high percentage of the local club/event/radio discjockies in the region commands high standards for quality control and performance. 2nd best won't do.
Qualifications: As operations director for the all new Big Daddy 100.7 Fayetteville - Oak Hill - Beckley, and host the award winning afternoon road show (the longest running afternoon drive radio show in Southern West Virginia)allows for careful observation and to keep a watchful eye on local events and giving close attention to whats first to happen with community here in the Fayetteville-Oak Hill- Beckley area.
Previous Background: Group Program Director for the previous 7 years for Southern Communications in Beckley. Duties included being in charge of creating successful promotions for local businesses here at home, creative production of the commercials heard on all of the local radio stations, and conducting live remote broadcasts to draw traffic for hundreds of local advertisers in our community for nearly all of the area Beckley stations including 103-CIR, Groovy 94.1, Power Country 105.9, and The New River 102.3. Scheduling the music to be played over the radio is also my job. Chances are that most of the hit songs have been personally decided on by me long before being played here locally on the radio. For our friends in Charleston, WQBE, The Wolf 96.1 and The Beat 98.7 were also stations where I have hosted my afternoon drive show over the years.
Commentary: Hosting more than 5,000 events alone since 1977 and introducing hundreds of dance songs over the years in area nightclubs has been a blast. Many of these songs are still staples and remain popular in area venues even today. Who was the radio/club lunatic around here who was first to play the electric slide in 1988? Your guess is as good as mine. The very first karaoke show in Beckley in 1992 was also fun to do. We had the bouncing ball then.(Whoops remembering this signifies old age)! haha
History: Hosting your upcoming event willing and providing you with (a small phone book) of references would be my pleasure. I'm sure that somewhere down the road, you or a close family member have or will be attending one of our events and this is why we are #2 in the Country!
Formula: A successful wedding reception is about the proper music choices, the right personality host who can keep the party moving, and the amble experience needed to handle every important benchmark. It takes many years of practice and design to transform an ordinary wedding reception/ceremony into a memory to last a lifetime. Do you want experience with all facets of wedding event planning? No problem!
Certifications: As a certified radio marketing consultant I have been properly trained and certified to plan and create successful and award winning promotions to generate traffic for local businesses including non-profit groups and organizations. The true art form of promotion and proper execution is important to the success of any event heard over the radio or not.
Promotional Background: Being operations manager and afternoon drive host for Big Daddy 100.7 in Fayetteville - Oak Hill - Beckley qualifies me to help with all of your special event needs. I also specialize in organizing fundraisers, grand opening events, remote broadcast enhancers and can help design special radio promotions for local companies and local nightclub promotions. Do you want references from 33 years of satisfied clients? Just ask.
The Fast Forward: Hosting many fundraisers with Big Daddy 100.7 in our own community is priority one. This site is open to help to promote with the many fundraisers in our area. Have a non-profit organization and need help promoting it? Call me. Entertainment will be promoted through Abe One Deejays and your event promoted on Big Daddy 100.7.

Feedback
- We hired Cowboy Will to host our wedding reception on a whims notice. We had less than 48 hours to put everything together. He is known to haved trained many of the other local djs through the years and now I know why he is the best. He knew what to do every step of the way. We are both 22 and have never been married before. Will made everything seem easy from the introductions to the great music he played. He was interactive with our guests with his fun games which had everyone laughing too. My wife is very happy with him so that makes me happy. PERFECT! -- James M, Beckley, WV, 1/5/2011
- Our night was incredible! The place was packed. Not only does Cowboy Will impress me with his skills as the area's top dj/emcee, his crew does too. Many of his Abe One Dj crew were here as well. I had no idea that these guys had so much talent. One of his dj's "Breeze" was actually on American Idol as few years ago and he is an outstanding singer. You can witness that Will works hard to make all of his dj's outstanding host's and performers as well. Will also prepared an effective advertising and promotional campaign to draw us even more customers through his radio station. It was total win-win! We had a record Wednesday. Thanks for everything! -- Shelly F, Beckley, WV, 5/5/2010
- Our Valentines Party was a blast. My wife and I saw his karaoke show on Saturday in Beckley and we knew that we made the right choice. He keeps the music upbeat and the karaoke was great too. The sound system rocked and the party went on for hours. I've been listening to him on the radio here for years and my wife and I now listen to him on that new radio station 100.7 Big Daddy. It really makes a big difference when you hire a real radio disc jockey. He have great microphone skills and knows how to work a crowd both young and older. We had so much fun tonight that nobody wanted to leave. Great job Will! -- Lyndon J, Oak Hill, WV, 2/14/2010
- Cowboy Will continues to be the area's dominate Dj. His ability to perform for all age groups is incredible! He works the crowd like no one I've ever seen. His equipment sounded great and the extra lighting he brought added a lot to our party. I love his new radio station 100.7 too. I will be using him for all of our future events and would like to encourage anyone in the Fayette and Raleigh area's to do the same. He is a real pro. Thanks for everything Cowboy Will we LOVE you!!! -- Kimberly J, Oak Hill, WV, 2/7/2010
- Another home run! We are consistantly pleased with Cowboy Will and all of his Djs. Will is professional and gives attention to detail. We can witness his hard work and dedication with his other djs as well. Hooks is a steller emcee with great micrphone skills. Breeze was an American Idol contestant and is a great talent. Gary is an old pro and keeps the crowd motivated. Phillip Taylor is a nice guy and very accomodating. Brian Reznor 'the radio king' can rock the house with younger crowds. His daughter Kerri Leigh and Magic Mike are great new additions too. Will has spent a lot of time training his team and the investment shows when you hire any of these guys. -- Shelly F, Beckley, WV, 6/24/2010
