Erin and I don't really share a lot of musical preferences in common. She likes folk music with panflutes, and panflutes make me flashback to typhoid hallucinations in Tilcara, Argentina. I like punkrock but when I play it, Erin finds reasons to run errands. You get the picture. But, miraculously, we share anintense enjoyment of Soul, Motown, Funk &c. This, therefore, is mainly what we'll have rocking at the reception, along with some crowdpleasers, of course.
So, because we're big control freaks and don't want Ke$ha and Lady Gaga creeping onto a DJ's playlist, we'll be playlist-DJing our reception on the laptop. However, as my Dad mentioned, this has the disadvantage of not being able to accept song requests. Being a nerd, I asked myself how the internet could solve this problem. It turns out that there is a handy little comment button at the bottom of this post and you can let us know what you'd like to hear. Given our noted character-flaws in relation to music, we do reserve the right to veto gawdawful selections. We will also have some gawdawful selections of course, though, like "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" and "Let Your Backbone Slide" and much to my chagrin, some Hall and Oates
So, Dear Friends, Family and strangers-who-are-not-invited-but-are-creeping-this-wedblog, what would you like to hear during the booty-motional portion of our post-nuptual celebration?
Extra points if you can link it to a youtube video, especially so for spit-take inducing selections.
What about Justin Beiber. My grade 7s say he is the best.

ReplyDeleteI know Jack Johnson is in the 'gawdawful' category for you, but you promised me at least one tune... choose the one you find least offensive...:)
ReplyDeleteAnd, a 'two-step' and a salsa tune would also be great!
Swing Swing Swing! Or at least a little something I can challenge Mom to a "twist-off" over ;)
