It is very true.  I am more than a DJ.  In fact, in certain ways I am not a DJ at all.  I do not use LP’s or Records.  I do not “Scratch” or “Mix”.  What I do is entertain!  I create an environment for groups of youth that is fun, inviting, free and very much God focused.  I do use music and yes…most of the things I end up doing resemble “exercise” but above all I connect with youth and adults by allowing them to be themselves.  I perform and speak and have fun.  Through it all I allow kids to be kids but challenge them to look differently.  Look differently at the music they listen too.  Also challenge them to look at the skills that God has given them and how they can use them to better themselves, their family, their parish and their world.

I have branded myself as “DJ Bill” so people can remember who I am and that I can provide music, entertainment and dancing…but I am much more than just a DJ.

Don’t take my word for it…if you look at my “rave review” section of this website you can read what some of the people who have seen me have said.  The title of this blog entry is from my friend Kevin who I worked for in Nov. 2006.  He is a great Diocesan Youth Leader and said some very nice words about me.  (Thanks Kevin!)  I also have a few more to add over the next few days so check back often.

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME! Now believe it and LIVE IT!

Peace, (More than just a) DJ Bill

Yes…it is true.  Go to Google, Yahoo or MSN and do a search for Catholic Dance and we are the number 1 and number 2 results! 

I am glad to see that for those keywords my site comes up first.  Not sure how many people in the world are searching right now for the words Catholic Dance but it is nice to know that if they are…they will find my little site.

Hopefully after National Catholic Youth Conference 2007 in Ohio we will make this site very popular for all the youth across the USA!  It is good to have a goal!!

Peace,

DJ Bill

So I am still working on posting videos of the Catholic Dance. They will be online soon.

Until then I have made this page for you to see some of the videos from November 2006. Enjoy!

Watch and let me know what you think!

Has DJ Bill fallen off the face of the earth? Well….NO! I have been working on way too much lately. Between DJing, family, websites and working hard on new promotional material I have had no time at all. I cannot believe Lent and Easter are all ready behind us…

During Easter I kept hearing a Steven Curtis Chapman song in my head. “All Things New”! Great tune and definitely my prayer for this time of my life. I am trying hard to minimize all the things that I seem to focus on that keep me from spending time with my Family or my passion of DJing and entertaining.

During this time, my beautiful wife helped me make a new promotional item. I would LOVE to share it with you all and see what you think. It is located here! http://www.catholicdance.com/promo1.pdf. I would love to hear your feedback and your thoughts. I am still working on growing my regional ministry to be a National ministry and I have yet to really start promoting myself. This will be the first thing I use…

I am praying for all of you and will keep you in my Easter prayers. Please also pray for me. Pray that God continues to show His plan for the Catholic Dance and to give me the drive to do what needs to be done.

DJ Bill is a Mobile Disc Jockey and also a Master of Ceremonies.  However, in a few weeks, DJ Bill Lage will be a…..ROCKSTAR!!

Yes it is true.  I am giving my first ever CONCERT!  A hybrid of my all ready interactive dance.  To suit the needs of a Junior High event I am doing in the Diocese of Fargo, I will be not having a dance but I will be performing a concert.  How does that differ from what you usually do?

Honestly it does not…most of my dances I am on a stage and the crowd is facing me and following me in my interactive dances.  This is a GREAT way to have a dance without worrying about the normal dance issues.  Giving the kids step by step things to do will allow them to all participate and be involved.

So…I am excited to have my first OFFICIAL concert.  I hope I am a rockstar when all is done! 

Peace,

DJ Bill Lage
