The Morning After (THE Wedding Music Show), Sunday August 16, 2015
So....this post is coming quite early. On Sunday, the 16th of August, let's hear what Wedding reception music would sound like if a "The Morning After" dj decided to tie up the professional Wedding dj in the closet with the wedding cake crumbs. NO NEGATIVE comments about the professional Wedding guys/gals; if the music is playing and the reception seats are empty, they are doing a fine job.
...but what would happen if songs, with very danceable notes, were played that may be unfamiliar or out of the Wedding guests' comfort zone? Well....I'm hoping that the great vibes of a wedding gathering, some alcoholic lubrication, and the absolute need to move will negate the unfamiliarity. So! This show! Move the furniture out of the LR! Crank up the stereo, PC/Macs speakers, and any wireless sound-producing contraptions to 10 (because "11" is silly and oh so overdone). Here's the final list. Hopefully it will appeal to dancing mavens of all ages. Everybody on the floor!
