kidz

Last night was the free Halloween Disco for the lovely little village of Horningsham. Something we decided to do for the community coz we's good like that!
The evening was foggy and delicious. There's no bloody light pollution in Horningsham and as darkness fell it had a definite spooky feel to it.

Here's Brassey getting into the swing of the night. It was a odd set to do. The mix of people were a family with a small child and granny tagging along and some 15 - 17 year olds. The family kept requesting Michael Jackson tracks..... Ugggggh. I was going to stick on 'Thriller' anyways as it's a classic Halloween thing to play but they wanted MJ all night.... Or T-Rex.... hmmmm.

But the real surprise were the kids. Never has Plan B's lyrics been more apt

"That's the mentality of kidz today"!

I had a CD box full of the latest hits, Indie Rock, R&B, Rap, Grunge, and Skater Rock...Plus tons more. Brassey has a more diverse selection and loads of classics and brand new stuff that he's found... Good stuff.
So we were ready for the yoof... Were we?
The first request was for the Cha Cha Slide. Then we had a request from a teen for Bryan Adams and Bon Jovi!! Then one for Put your hands up for Detroit. Possibly the only chart track I didn't have as I hate it.... Sigh!
So we started throwing out naff stuff for fun. Can you believe they actually got up dancing for Queen "We will Rock You" and Steps "5,6,7,8" and of course "The Macarena"
Ah well... There's nothing more personal than musical taste.
Have a great Halloween and let the Monsters roam free..... Howl................
