Description
Hello,
My name is Lisa Martin, and I would like to introduce Main Event Productions to you. My husband Daniel & I have been in the Karaoke/DJ business professionally for over 8 years now, and I can honestly say those years have taught us a lot. Even before starting our own business Dan & I attended over 30 shows learning what works, and what doesn't in this industry.We came to the conclusion that a good library,a good sound, and above all a great report with your guests is what sets you apart from others. We have prided ourselves on those 3 principals. We currently have over 32,000 songs to choose from, top of the line equipment such as Peavy, NuMark & Samson, and our client report goes UNMATCHED in the industry. My husband Dan has over 15 years experience in the electronics field interning at WXLC radio station. Myself, I have been a Karaoke junkie for over 19 years, so let's just say, I can honestly say I have been on both sides of the fence. Dan & I still attend other Karaoke/DJ shows to keep current with trends, and to just plain relax. So, as you can see, we are very involved in what we do, and it shows in our performances. The intent of this was to introduce ourselves to you, and give you a little background as to our experience.Dan & I would love to sit and chat with you more about this exciting phenomenon.So if this sounds exciting to you, please feel free to give us a call to set up a meeting.We currently run our shows off of our computer which gives us access to unlimited resources. We are here to serve you, our client, in whatever your needs are.

Feedback
- Main Event Productions was perfect for our event. The crowd loved the songs they chose. In addition, they surprised us with some games for the guests to play that were fun and went with our retirement theme. I would recommend them for your next event! -- Linda W, Gurnee, IL, 10/2/2009
- I have a confession...I was nervous to hire Main Event Productions because they were so inexpensive. We all know the expression "you get what you pay for" well that was not the case with this company, we got way more then we paid for! They were kind, professional, classy, and sincerely wanted our wedding to be a success. We can not say anything bad about them. They came all the way to Milwaukee from Illinois to go over our contract and final details with us. They were available through email and over the phone, always responding promptly. They were very helpful and not "flashy" like some djs. -- Christy D, Milwaukee, WI, 8/15/2009
- Main Event Productions made our day very special and fulfilled all of our special requests. We would recommend Main Event Productions for any of your events. They really know how to read the crowd and make your day fun for all. Thanks! -- Janet D, Mchenry, IL, 8/8/2009
- They were polite and very curtious to the needs of our gathering. I really liked the fact they also had facts from 1959 and 1991. -- Charlotte W, Addison, IL, 8/9/2009
- They did a great job! Played all of the right songs and were very accompdating. -- Derek B, Windsor, WI, 7/25/2009
- Lisa & Dan did a great job at our wedding reception! We had several special requests (such as a guest announcer, the bride announcing the groom/mother dance with a twist, and an interruption for Chicago Style hot dogs, just to name a few), but Main Event Productions stayed on top of it with us and moved things right along. We had a great time that evening, and with so many things to worry about that day, it was great not to have to worry about the music. -- Emily J, Cicero, IL, 6/27/2009
- My Name is Tina and we just hosted a post wedding reception. Lisa and Dan (Main Event)were great!!! They arrived on time and provided the atmosphere we were looking for. Our guests enjoyed the selections of music and other entertainment they brought. We will be hiring them for our next big event. If you want a great service, look no further!!! The price was excellent. I would recommend them to anyone for any event!!! -- Tina M, Zion, IL, 6/20/2009
- I was extremely impressed and satisfied with main event productions! They did a fantastic job, props, games, little info tidbits etc. for my mom's 50th! They were great, and i had many compliments from friends and family who atteneded! GREAT JOB! THANK YOU! -- Brandy P, Elgin, IL, 5/16/2009
- Did all we asked them to do and showed up for the event on time.
Even helped with the catered food. Very friendly. -- Christine B, Glen Ellyn, IL, 3/7/2009
- Main Event was very accommodating and willing to work with me over email and with a minimum of face-to-face contacts, which was very helpful since I was planning this event from a distance of 200 miles away. The choice and variety of musical selections were great to listen to and created a fun and energizing atmosphere, and those of my guests who were inclined to dance were consistently kept on the dance floor. The DJs were also very flexible to take requests both before and during the event. All in all, Main Event offers an excellent value for their services. -- Rachel M, Crystal Lake, IL, 1/3/2009
- Great fun and music for everyone of all ages. They did a really great job on my Halloween Bash. Costumes and games for everyone involved. -- Jared B, Evanston, IL, 10/31/2008
- They were fantastic. They had all the music we requested, and handled on-the-spot requests. Several people at our wedding inquired about them. I said that the DJ's were very helpful and accomodating. They had a questionaire that really helped us tailor their services to fit our event, which relieved some of the stress of wedding planning. They contacted the site manager and worked everything out with her, so I didn't have to. They even worked overtime when asked. They made my event truly memorable. -- Kristin B, Geneva, IL, 10/18/2008
- WONDERFUL!!!!! I can't say enough! -- Janine S, Plainfield, IL, 8/30/2008
- THANK YOU FOR HAVING THE PATIENCE TO DEAL WITH MY HUSBAND AND FRIENDS VERY THOUGH CROUD YOU GUYS DID A GRATE JOB I HIGHLY RECOMEND YOU -- Claudia K, Union Grove, WI, 8/2/2008
- Rock and Roll music was great. My employees enjoyed themselves. Unfortunately it was very HOT, therefore we did not have alot of involvement from employees. -- Susan M, Aurora, IL, 7/31/2008
- Main Event Productions was fantastic. They were extremely accomodating for our outside, backyard wedding; very professional, comfortable and well-spoken on the mike; played a great song-list; and kept the dance floor full all night (even later than originally planned...no one was ready to go home yet)! I would hire them again, and would recommend them to my family and friends without hesitation. Thanks again to Lisa and Daniel!
-Amanda and Isaac Cowart, East Troy, Wisconsin -- Amanda K, East Troy, WI, 5/31/2008
- Words can't express how wonderful Dan and Lisa were in all aspects of planning and executing my daughter's 11th birthday party. From the first moment I spoke with Lisa, I knew that Main Event was the right organization for our party. From the lengthy song list that my daughter requested, to the lighting, party games and prizes, and numerous other special requests, Lisa made sure that every last detail was met and exceeded expectations. I would hire them again in a heartbeat and recommend them to anyone and everyone. Main Event made my daughter's birthday a huge success. Lisa and Dan, thank you again for an outstanding job. -- Stephanie G, South Barrington, IL, 3/1/2008
- Dan was very nice and very accommodating to our needs. -- Dawn B, Highland Park, IL, 11/2/2007
- They were great to work with and provided fun for all the ages at our party. -- Erika S, Western Springs, IL, 9/22/2007
- Main Event was very easy to work with and were very flexible in accomodating any requests during the day at our corporate event. The range of music they played was great - it had everybody moving to the music and really helped energize our group.
Main Event Productions is very passionate about what they do - and it shows in their work. I would certainly recommend them and their services. -- Natalie M, Libertyville, IL, 9/20/2007
