poptimistsA special poptimists poll to celebrate ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jauntyalan's Wedding to Emma, the new Mrs Jaunty. Many of your poptimist correspondents were at this wedding yesterday and danced to a selection of tunes spun by carsmilesteve and thebarnetape (with occasional consultancy by yrs trly).
This selection is brought to us by The Wedding Party box set, yours for £8.99 from Amazon. I was going to buy this from Woolworth's yesterday morning but they were out of it so I made some Popular CDs instead. Eagle-eyed readers may spot one (1) track that was not on the original tracklist for this album.
[Poll #818324]
Songs marked with a * were played at the wedding yesterday. As was the, erm, bonus track - whatever that is.

Date: 2006-09-11 09:26 am (UTC)poptimistsrelatives 'gave it up for' U-U-U-UTAH SAINTS.(A certain number which would have been considerably higher if one DJ's demand to "make the last half hour all rave" had been heeded!)

My friend tells me that he wants to DJ at his own wedding, which surely means lots of Bright Eyes and Jandek. Sigh.

Date: 2006-09-11 10:33 am (UTC)I have noticed that this is also missing Scatman John. I'm storming out of my own wedding in a huff if I don't get to dance to Scatman's World.
