DANCING ON AIR
is still alive after 30 years,
a different concept and a different name called "Saturday Morning Fever".
East Coast Event Group was asked a few years back to be a part of the "30 Year Anniversary Celebration" on WPHL Channel 17 where Michael Nise (the creator of the show) wanted to reproduce the good old days with a modern feel of music and lights. We are proud the legacy continues with a different, "I mean different" version of Dancing On Air. Even though we are not involved with the new show, the Fuse network and it's producers look like they did an awesome job with some the original 2012 cast members, featuring Casey Reed, Michael Pericoloso, Ian Eagle Ashanti, Deanna Marie, Gina Zettler, Rogelio Gonzalez, Marissa Rivera, Nicole Zell, Tina DeCara to name a few.
So here we are today with another twist of the show's debut being aired on Wednesday, January 27th, 2016 at 11:00pm on the FUSE network, looks great, don't miss it. See below for more information and the history of the show along with previews of Saturday Morning Fever. We wish the creator, the staff and the cast, best of luck:)

Dancin' On Air DJ's & Hosts
 DJ Josiah
With a fresh breath of life Dancin' On Air set out to do just that plus much more when it made its return to WPHL 17, filming at The Fuge in Warminster. Regulars such as Kelly Ripa and Mike Rossi were swapped out for a new crop of hungry talents and DJ Jazzy Jeff has Philadelphia's next on his heels now. In the internet age, there are many television shows never are able to get off of the ground, the staying power of Dancin' On Air's brand was enough to accomplish this amazing feat alone.
In order to produce a 13 episode season, top-tier talent and design are necessities. Stellar East Coast DJ Josiah received the nod as the weekly in-house DJ. As a traditional turntable DJ Josiah possesses a keen and intuitive mixing style accompanied with a grasp of music spanning a wide number of genres and times that made him the ideal choice. The show allowed him to showcase his creativity and ingenuity as he produced set lighting as well. Anthony Veneri, another stand-out East coast DJ, known for his infectious personality and charm established himself as the clear front runner as the shows regular host, introducing guests and segments each week. The dynamic duo of Anthony Franzzo (DJ ZO) & Billy Stewart provided life to the set. Asside from providing talent, East Coast was able to showcase high end production, lighting and media displays available to you. The Show was a wonderful experience for the entire East Coast Staff. We were able to create wonderful relationships and got a chance to show the world how we feel about ourselves, that we are a first class company through and through. If you are planning and event and would like to reserve one of the DJs mentioned above, put their name in the the comments section of when you request a quote.
