I had a Christmas party last night with all ages. Played Christmas music for an hour, than ramped it up a little, ended last half hour with music the "kids" could dance to, although not what is considered "dance" music
They danced to Mustang Sally (and sung along), Taking Care of Business, La Grange, Boom Boom Boom Boom, Tush, Sharp Dressed Man, etc.
Regardless of where you play, those same seven girls show up and want to "dance"! I only cater to them after the regular people leave or are worn out.
If I were 25 years younger and trying to make a living I'd have to play a lot of different things than what I do now.
Don't have to though!!

Nah, it was pretty easy to figure out, Donny. Just inspected the page elements.

well then you would know you can post pictures on your own FB page albums
.....just sayin'.. Bravado & Machismo aside we all should be glad we can share our passion for music with people to enjoy no matter what age..

Don, those gals showed up in the Florida Keys during Spring Break, and they danced and sang to the same tunes there. Ironically, the requests from those young ladies were mainly older stuff, they loved anything Sinatra, sang along to Mustang Sally, anything by Jimmy Buffett was fine (sorry Russ), and danced to all the 60s, 70s country and rock songs. Now, I must admit, I played for the ladies, and they were the ones putting the bigger bills in the tip pitcher (I use a beer pitcher - it holds more!). The guys could care less about the music. They were there to get plastered and get laid! Hey, that seemed to be what Spring Break was all about. I don't think there was a Spring Break thing when I was young.

Gary, you need to get a FB account. You don't have to reveal anything or post anything, but you can keep up with lots of people you know and care about. Almost daily I see new photos of my grandsons.

Yeah, I know that, Donny - FB is just not my cup of tea, though.

Gary

ditto Don ....Fb is very kool for so many reasons..try it for a few months see if you like it..they even have arranger kb groups like this one..

Nah, I already spend too much time in front of the PC. And, four months from now I'll be sailing to Saint Somewhere on the boat, and there's no internet connection at most of the locations unless you want to spend thousands of dollars on satellite service and gear to receive it.



Cheers,

Gary

Gary, I don't know how many times I have to keep telling you that I am younger than you... I was born April 16th 1941 which makes me 74+ ... but then I know you OLD guys forget things easily ...

Yeah, but you look older than me! That's my story and I'm stickin to it.
