This is the 3rd year we are doing this event. Gymnasts in the area get a chance to let lose by an event thrown by USA Gymnastics. We knew it was a 90s theme so that is easy. We also knew it was a teen ager party so we pulled out our playlists from our proms and homecoming events we had recently.

  Double Tree hotel has been the venue all three times and they can host a cool party. We were in the courtyard so we were able to outside to have the party.

  So how do you prepare for a party like this? We figured that we will be outside so we can use a little sounder so we decided to bring the (big boy) 3 way speakers to make sure it reaches everyone and they can feel it. Plus, young folks want to feel the music.  So it was a 90s theme so we would do a quick mix of the 90s music but at the same time had to read to room to see if they needed more current hits.  And of course we listen to requests. Some ds do not listen to requests but we take them and consider them. Its funny since sometimes they make a request and the song is in the prepare list ready to go. I feel that happens a lot.

Again another fun party for USA gymnastics. We love the energy and how folks are able to get loose.

In the bay, we do many holiday parties. In these parties they serve food then do some games then the dancing begins. This past Saturday we were in Capital Club. It’s a beautiful venue in the heart of downtown San Jose. It is a unique venue that stays on the 17th floor. One of the bonuses, once you need to take a break from dancing is to go to the balcony area to see the views outside. The corporate event was a nice event that provided a great playlist. They asked for the classic Christmas songs and a little bit of everything else. We like getting list like that so we can touch a little bit of everything like 70s, 80s, 90s and the 2000s. It’s a beautiful thing to have that wide array to choose from and you just have to read the crowd.

A few days later we were back at it again at the Double Tree Hotel. This event was a bigger event since the guest list was at 300 people. We made sure we brought our normal set up and the big boy speakers. We did have a little less guidance with the playlist. They wanted Christmas music then some the the popular dance music with some Spanish mixed in. Again it was another opportunity to read the crowd and give folks what they wanted. We were also open to take instant requests. Its all about making the folks happy at their events.
