Parties.. what are they?
In my days of doing the odd Wedding / Party / Bar Mitzvah, I did have to suffer the indignity of playing stuff like that. Mind you, the fact I was being paid a sum of money helped.
Everything from the Village Hall to the (posh) Marquee in the garden of a mansion... but they nearly all had things in common.
1. Grannies / Older People always managed to sit NEAREST the speakers and then complain that the music was too loud. 2. At some point it the evening a pissed bloke would come up and pester you for the most obnoxious track you could think of. 3. At some point in the evening a fight would start (see below) 4. Someone would always get off with someone they shouldn't and 50% of the time, get caught!
The best fight was at a plush gig/wedding in rural Sussex. Big Marquee in garden, car park full of Rollers, Bentleys, Porches, Ferrari's etc. Groom got so pissed he couldn't stand, Bride got more and more upset. Grooms father starting puching the living daylights out of bride's father, Grooms mother starting puching the living daylights out of bride's mother, then aunt and uncles got involved... it was wonderful. 30 mins later, they were all sitting down having a good laugh together.
At the end of the night the Bride's dad came up to me and gave me an extra £50 for maintaining my cool, and the music, during the fight.

Santa visited me early yesterday... He left me in plaster and on crutches for Christmas!! B*ST*RD!! Shane, Shane, Shane... (Shaking head in a disappointed way icon)... After all we told you about not getting into a sherry drinking contest with the big guy! Ahh well, don't get the hump... bet that's your Christmas Snow Goose well and truly cooked! What happened did you mistake something real for a Mirage? And didn't we always tell you that vaulting onto the local Camel taxi would end in grief one of these days, especially after a couple of sherry's? Get well soon good sir! Hope you have a good Christmas despite your incapacity. All the best Prog Paul God bless you guvnor! Cor blimey...stroik a loit...apples n pears...Lionel Blairs...frog n toad...(well you get the idea...)

The problem with partys are that not everyone will be sharing my taste in music, so with that in mind, what I may do is have your show playing in the front room, while the other 'stuff' plays in the back room, alternatively, stuff the other stuff and just listen to some rock ;D Rest assured, I will be tuned in (if I'm in a capable state) as long as you promise to play Gotthard's Merry X-mas for all my ARfm friends!!!
