Or too much... At least when you would react like my sister when she has too much coke (but only from 1 or 2 brands), it's just like she drank alcohol
Country is good also. I don't think the music from the 40's and 50's is something I would listen to - but then, I think I really don't know much music from that time. Can you tell me one or two singers or songs from that time?
But all from the 60's up to now definately is good, there's some great music for a party from the 60's. (well not really all, I don't like every song that exist, hope you know what I mean)
Still thinking about music..well, I know I said 70s glam/disco, but perhaps that is not a fair indication of somewhat catholic tastes. I like: music hall, musical, most jazz and soul, and, more recently, French and German chanson/cabaret and some indie pop. As a choir member and keen amateur singer, I could also go on to list opera and choral, but that's not appropriate for a good dance. Anything with harmony of any kind and a good tune is a fair summary. I think I'll have a bit of Beach Boys.

Yay, Lonia, Pink... 'So what? I'm still a rock star!' Anthem for all us assertive ladies out here! Don't either of you worry about dropping in and out. I'll be out in 3 hours' time if not before; got some kind of evening commitment I don't know about cos it's a birthday surprise! Make sure you get the chance to welcome some of the Stateside members.

Btw, Simone, since you mentioned it elsewhere, my surprise hasn't happened yet, though we did all go for a birthday meal last night. Surprise is tonight, which is why I can't stay the distance here!

Hi I'm baaaaaaackkkkkkkkk. And I brought TJ's present. His present from me is my wish for him to be surrounded by love and good health and happiness. Love from all of us to him is the biggest gift I have for him.
Ok, my gift I do not know yet, I'll open it in a little while.
Sundy, wow, as far as music you can dance to from the 40's you can't go wrong with any of the big bands. I like Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman and Harry James (excellent trumpet player-not so nice of a man LOL) and all of that like that. The Andrew Sisters, Jo Stafford, Doris Day, Perry Como, early Sinatra stuff like that. 50's we get a little more into the early rock n' roll and I like the Platters and Elvis and well I can't think of any more right now but you know what I mean...
The 60's which was the decade I was born was hit and miss for me as far as music, some I love and some that are very very popular I do not. I'll just leave it at that.
Like Steph I also love opera but that definitely is not the best music for a party!!
Lonia the fact that you like it here says you are a smart and intelligent person, because this group is the best group of people I've ever "met". I honestly think it takes a special kind of person to be a TJ fan.
Well Sharon,some of the artists you mentioned I know of,and some I don't.But I think I got the point.I'll stick to one,and that is Elvis,which I absolutely love...

...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR TJ, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! Have a small cake for TJ - which I bought (not a good cook) - with a candle.
HI EVERYBODY!
I am only here for a few minutes and will be back later in the evening! Have another appointment.
Anyway, I am here to bring the softdrinks and chips!
And TJ's present, of course! It's a gift voucher for a dinner and a movie with, well, ME!
See you all later! Have fun!
Simone.

Hodgins: It´s overrated-most of the time Dexter: They make it look so easy-connecting with another human being. It's like no one told them it's the hardest thing in the world.
Yes Sundy, love Elvis! He's a lot different from the 40's type music though, interesting how music changes from decade to decade and sometimes even within a year isn't it?
We can play some Elvis here! Which song do you want...hmm something fast and fun...
Sundy we probably won't ever have a LOT of people here at once, the time zones and nature of the site (plus the fact people do have lives LOL) prevent that! We probably will have quite a few people throughout the day though. And I do plan on being here off and on, though I do have some things to do later that will take me away for a bit.
Oh good present Simone!!!
Talk to you later!!

Great present, Sharon! And I love all those artists you mention. I can karaoke very well if you put on some Jo Stafford or Rosemary Clooney!
Thanks for the cake, Simone (another good present btw - is that for you AND him??!)! I'll add it to the groaning table, over which a few party poppers have just soared. I can't believe how much you can eat 'virtually' without putting on an ounce!
Hansio, welcome...you're new! What a great time to join the fun. Hi, I'm Steph, a pleasure to meet you. I'm UK-based and hit 5 decades yesterday, much to my disbelief, that's why I am receiving the occasional good wish amidst TJ's...

Steph I don't find many people who know who Jo Stafford is much, other than the people my mother's age of course! I can't sing at all so I'll let you at the karaoke and stand back and cheer!
