Jam Circles
I'm totally against choreographing jam circles, but what have you all found gets people out onto the floor?
Right now, I'm liking "Doggin' Around," "Hand Clappin'" and "Traffic Jam."

"Hand Clappin'" and "Traffic Jam" are too played out... not to mention "Hand Clappin'" just plain sucks.

I always think that The Opener offa Great London Concerts will work great, and I've tried it twice in the past 3 or 4 years in seattle, and I got blank stares both times..

I keep my jam tunes semi-secret and start changing them when I notice others picking up on or using them.mousethief wrote:Well, do you have any suggestions then?

eh, I wouldn't expect much from it. I'd be more curious about a battle between you and him or a battle between Giselle and I... both of which could happen after the semis!yedancer wrote: I'm so looking forward to the Ron v Reuben battle in a couple weeks.

Most topics I'd be glad to share, but again I've always liked to keep my "jam tunes" hush hush.mousethief wrote:Glad you're here to help out, big guy. Seriously, people respect you - that's why we ask.

I really enjoyed Reuben's fast jam he DJ'ed sunday night at HDJF - he lists the songs he played on the first page of this thread. I remember Minn and Corrina just ripping it up during that jam (and for some reason I happened to be on the inside of the circle so I got a close up view!).
I just catalogued Earl Hines Chronogical 1937-39 today; I really dig the last half of the recording with XYZ, GT Stomp, and the piano solo stuff.
[Sorry for outing you Reuben but you had already made this public record
