Mad Scientist performs outrageous experiments in San Francisco

Halloween is a celebration of wild costuming and different costumed characters. It's the one holiday for young and old to dress up and be any character, with this caveat, "let your imagination run wild."

Our Mad Scientist, AKA Dr. Funkenstein, used a monkey wrench to adjust necks and backs and performed experiments with dry ice, at a San Francisco Halloween theme.

Dr. Funkenstein is perfect for wellness parties, doctor and nurse parties, and for wacky themes.

According to the event planner:

He was early/on-time and went straight into setup. He was very friendly, professional and his presentations were good spirited. Overall look and character was unbridled wackiness, which was a great hit at the party.

Celebrity Gems arranges the Mad Scientist and other costumed characters for events in San Francisco, San Mateo, San Jose, Walnut Creek, Hillsborough, and Fremont.

Jazz Trio at Model Home opening in Burlingame adds that Ambiance

Music is a classy way to showcase a model home opening. We have arranged an array of musical groups in different models to add that ambiance for buyer and realtor walk throughs.

Examples: a Harpist in one model home; a Guitarist in a second model; and, a Jazz Trio in the third model. Picture a Caribbean Steel Band at poolside.

We recently arranged a Jazz Trio for a model home opening in Burlingame. Here is the event planner's testimonial:

I wanted to tell you again how much we all loved the Dix Bruce Trio. They sounded great and were professional, the absolute most important elements for music at a large event.

The music connoisseurs in our group were impressed by the quality of the music (which was superb) but I was equally impressed by the trio’s professionalism and ability to adapt to exactly what we needed.

They asked me ahead of time to setup signals so we could communicate throughout the evening. They also asked me if I wanted them to stagger their breaks to keep the music continuous. Really professional!

They played perfect “background music,” so that they were never too loud, but created a beautiful ambience.

Thank you again!
