You're working your arse off for our benefit, and I think that you totally should get to have some of the music you love the best

Honey, I will. It's in my iPod. There's all I want in there, and more. It aint a problem. Just as happy to do my dancing under the stars, out by the pool - and NOT have to risk the guitars, in any case. They aren't insured at the moment, thinking about it.

Drew, do it any way that works for you, and is the easiest. I have no idea how you usually do it, but do it that way, whatever that way happens to be.

I'm thinking silence sounds like a good idea.

See, in that case y'all will have to listen to Fever and Cheek to Cheek and Hit the Road, Jack and These Boots were Made For Walking, because I'll be wandering around singing jazz/blues/soul/cheese until somebody gags me.

rubs hands together gleefully in the manner of Mr Burns

...'course, since I'm talking Buffistas, I guess people will have brought their own gags. And manacles. Huh.

Stunning design Pete!

Trick is we've got very eclectic tastes in this group, so there's an awful lot of one man's trash is another mans treasure.

And I noticed that everyone was good with whatever music was selected. Yeah, we're an easy bunch. (go rock, choose vintage rock!)

Pete--so gorgeous! Really. I'm in love!

As for everything else, once I get my aviophobic ass on a plane and get out to see y'all, it's all good. Better than good.

As far as I can tell, Deb asked for classic rock and a whole bunch of folks were good with that. So that, something swoopy for Jilli, something for smonster to dance to, a mix of other stuff, and we're good, right?

There really wasn't a single thing suggested, either in terms of musical genre or specific song, that I had a problem with. Most of them (that I'd heard of) sounded cracking.

ND, I'm sorry if you feel under pressure, or that people have unreasonable expectations or whatever, and I'm sorry if I pissed you off by suggesting stuff. I really didn't mean (and didn't interpret other people) to be saying "You must play my favourite song! My F2F experience will be lessened by its absence!" and if it came across that way, I really regret it. I was pretty much in a 'Fire Bad, Music Pretty' headspace.

I'm not feeling a need to apologize because it was asked of us to throw out song requests...

Everyone just post what you want and I'll put something together.

ND, if you're exhausted and cranky, maybe waiting to take a look at the music requests for after you've had some rest might be a good idea. Silence would make for an odd prom, IMO, and I'd love it if you'd still put something together.

Hey, if ND doesn't bring his music making machine he shall have to sing for us.

(love ya sweety, don't stress, it'll all be good)

Screw the requests, Drew. You're a professional with a ginormous library and whatever you lovingly put together will surely be great and wide-ranging and a bunch of fun.
