Poptimism

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Thanks to all who came along to Poptimism, and sorry for the earlier cut-off (right in the middle of "Missing You" by John Waite!) - I had a good time though and I hope you all did too.

This Poptimism will be remembered as the Night of the Dancefloor Killer - Carsmile playing My Chemical Romance and me and Tim playing Chely Wright both proved brutally effective at sending people back to their chairs!

The next one is on NOVEMBER 10TH, which is a FRIDAY. We will be playing only NUMBER ONE UK HIT SINGLES. It will be my LAST STAND as a regular Poptimism DJ (until some point next spring, hopefully).

We also now have a well-stocked waiting list for guest DJs once again - hurrah!

I imagine that the point of the Chely was other than dancefloor-related?

See if Carsmile had played what he'd threatened promised then we wouldn't have had that MCR moment.

Was there a new Busted song played? I am guessing this purely on who was on the dancefloor giving it loads - Cis, Matt DC etc while everyone else had a bit of a relax.

People prefer to dance to something they know, I think. If only someone could come up with a format where you could be sure the crowd would be largely familiar with pretty much all the tunes played...

Which Chely Wright did he play? The only song of hers I know is the excellent "Single White Female," which is quite danceable.
