Who is Sequoia Slentz and some of his event planning achievements

Sequoia Slentz or the upsurge of a event planning professional? Slentz had become a booking agent for the Killers of Comedy in 2006, when he learned through his graphic designer, Jason Bland, who also designed T-shirts for the Howard Stern Show, that the comedic cast (including Bob Levy, Yucko the Clown and Beetlejuice) needed an Orange County rep. Cleanbox began designing the Killers of Comedy’s merchandise and managing all of their websites, and later bought the trademark to become the official booking agent for the show. They’ve now put on more 60 shows nationwide, including a few with Stern sidekick and “Too Fat to Fish” author, Artie Lang.

Sequoia Slentz profile in 944 Magazine : The room was full of good looking girls with laptop computers trying to look professional, but coming across more like cold and aloof. FYI, 944 is run by ice queens. So, buy the magazine if you feel compelled to read the profile, but for those of you too financially poor (and emotionally rich) to buy a magazine devoted to shallow, wannabe celebrities, here is a brief synopsis: Sequoia booked local bands in Laguna Beach, met Bob Levy of the Killers of Comedy, created a reality show, sold reality show to HowardTV, show airs in November, end of story.

Sequoia Slentz creative marketing guides: As the Boy Scouts’ motto says, “Be prepared.” Not only for emergencies, but, “for any old thing.” Live events are just that… they’re live. Anything can happen. The presenter’s wireless microphone could go out. You could lose power which could effect audio, lighting and the live feed. Make sure you have back up microphones and a reliable power source. If you have a lot of lighting, make sure you have a head electrician who can manage the power needs for all the lights so you don’t trip a breaker or blow a circuit. For graphics, it’s common to have a primary and back up computer to run your slides, and always wire the stage. You never know when a presenter will come with their own laptop and have videos they want to run, so having the cabling already set will save time.

Sequoia Slentz on Covid-19 times and the entertainment industry : A music career is a marathon, not a sprint. Understand there are waves of success with dips and plateaus. Figure out a way to push through the dips by reinventing, pivoting, and just keep going. Beyond that, they must value their family, friends, and community. Thank them for being supportive. Always remember who was there to help you out because they will be there for the long run. Understand what worked for you in the past may not work for you in the future. The methods that got you where you are, but they may not take you to where you want to be. Lastly, it is challenging for young musicians who are starting out to have the money to support their physical health. Your physical health can affect your mental health. Exercise, eating right, and meditation help you feel healthy mentally. Making music could be a form of meditation. It is important to surround yourself with supportive people and live healthy because they affect us the most. ”
