A couple of nights ago I did a 25th wedding anniversary, the age range of people was from 30-80 and I had been asked to play mostly 60s stuff and requests.

It ended up a varied and enjoyable evening.

Thought I was the only one playing that. I find it goes down really well with a lot of crowds.

[jamesmurphy]

You wouldn't believe how many times I get it requested! It finished at no30 in my top 100 requested singles of last year.

And I reckon I've played it 6-7 times this year already

Did an 18th last night, where the family asked that I play a bit of 50 Cent as the birthday boy liked him. Early in got a few requests (mainly 50 Cent) and it looked as though it was gonna be a quiet night.

Then the requests came rolling in. Cracking night, and just look at what was asked for - makes interesting reading and proves that 18 year olds don't all want R&B and Rap!

Now to confuse a number of you. As some will know we offer Irish themed music which is a speciality of ours.

This is my playlist from Monday night, St Patrick's Day. The venue is Irish and instructions for the night are ONLY Irish music or artists. There is one exception, Garth Brooks - Ireland which they love and consider him an honorary Irishman.

You will see I get some of the usual suspects in, but many tracks and artists will be unfamiliar to non-Irish folk. The note of step waltz, jive etc is just to remind me of tempo of track and * means a frequently played popular track. The "anon" artist means session singers not named on cd.
