All,
So this Saturday brought me to a private residence in the town of Colt's Neck NJ. Once arriving at the huge home I was met at the door by Allen the sweet 16's dad. He showed me around the huge home and my table was directly in the foyer to the left. I began my setup which entailed my regular rig with the addition of 4 up lights. I set the lights up first strategically placing them underneath a white drape decorating part of the space. The look with the blue led lights was killer and really set the mood for the evening. The theme was mardi gras and the guests came donning their masks and such. The guests arrived promptly at 7 and I kept it mellow with some newer R&B then kept a party vibe with a little uptempo dance hall reggae. After the dinner was served the birthday girl requested Break Your Heart by - Taio Cruz ! I obliged and was a bit relieved as i had no idea on her musical preference until that song request. I blasted off with my top 40 hits and sprinkled in some club hits and techno. The group pounded the floor for the bulk of the evening. I hit a rough patch early in the night and had my dance floor part like the Red Sea. I opted to take the tempo down and play some hip hop and try to entice the crowd with a slower tempo. I played a few hot hip hop jams to a dead floor! this lasted for about 20 minutes which made me a bit nervous then just made me angry. I hate dead dance floors I played a few classic r and b jams which got the few adults in tow out on the floor but after a few songs they dispersed as well. Another short time drug by with the dead floor I stopped the music and grabbed the mic! I said " Wow this floor looks awful, their might as well be tumbleweeds blowing through here it's so dead! so here's what I'm gonna do until I get somebody on this floor I'm gonna play the most ridiculous stuff I can find"! I then proceeded to play Speedo by the Cadillacs a 50's jam! I was gonna play a few more tracks as I refused to waste any more hits on a dead floor then a few girls came swinging out to the floor. I cut the jam off and said " alright I'm gonna try this again"! dropped Bad Romance by lady Gaga and got my floor back, after that snafu we partied hard for the remainder of the evening! I ended the night once again with My girl by the Temptations to a singing crowd closing the night off right. Upon conclusion of the night I got major props from the entire family and even passed a dozen or so cards out as a testament to the fun time we had. songs of the night were:
Shots- LMFAO
We Like to party- Vengaboys
Love is gone- David Guetta fe Chris Willis
Break Your Heart- Taio Cruz
OMG- Usher
Boom Boom Pow- BEP
I Gotta Feeling- BEP
Baby- Justin Beiber
Evacuate The Dancefloor- Cascada
Low- Flo Rida
