Songs that get em up

Cant get enough of your love.....Bad Company
Takin care of business......Bachmann turner
Brown Sugar.....stones
500 miles......the Proclaimers

Songs that have em headed out to the smoke pit

Hotel California........ this ones an absolute killer at any dance, many will be gently swaying to "On a dark desert highway" and by the time its into the chorus most will be either hopping on one leg or heading for their seats

Once you have em on the floor, be sure to keep em there and you can sometimes do that by creating medleys i.e where three tunes by the same band of more or less the same tempo are strung together. our band found maybe 2 or 3 medleys per night was the magic number.

In Germany you HAVE To Play following songs:

Rock Pop:
Summer of 69 - Bryan Adams
Walking on sunshine - Katrina and the waves


For me as a musician it is so boring, but everytime amazing that the audience sing and dance,


Very interesting song! Dont you from Simple Minds... The Lalala Part will always catch the audience
