hi everyone,
i'm doing a mardi gra party this saturday,
i need some song ideas maybe 10 or 12
should do the job. thanks for any list you
can give me.

Dixie jazz! Like .....
Do you know what it means
Tiger rag
When the Saints go marching in
Way down yonder
.....any thing that has a Cajun flair or mentions New Orleans ! Keep the tempo's(and the womens' blouses ....) UP ... and bring LOTS of beads !

Fats Domino stuff works well. Also Dixieland version of "Just A Closer Walk".
In fact Dixieland version of most anything will work.
If they crown Royalty, you may need to know the Mardi Gras March.
Mardi Gras calls for more up-tempo songs that normal. Good old 50's Rock'n Roll works for me.

thanks guys,
i figured dixieland would work and i like
the beads idea. as far as keeping the blouses
up, the average age at this place is 78 so
with my weak heart it would be a fatal move
for me. but then again, if i were a 78 year
old man hmmmmmmmm.

....keep the blouses WAAAAAAAAAy down. Forget the beads altogether. Just play the tunes, and look away !
