Over the weekend I was DJing a Jack & Jill party in rural New Hampshire. The crowd was younger and the music I had was OK, but a number of people were asking what country music I had. I looked through my selection and realized two things:
1. I don't have any country music at all.
2. Other than Garth Brooks and Achy Breaky Heart, I don't even know where to begin looking.
The Jack and Jill party was for a couple who is going to be married July 4. I am also DJing that wedding and it will be the same group of people but about 3 times the size. I am already starting to put the playlist together and I'd like to give them what they want - out of a 4 hour reception, I'd like to have at least a solid hour of country music.
So I am turning to you, the widely diverse 2old2play community. PLEASE help a brother out. If you're a country music fan, point me in the direction of songs or artists - modern or old school - for upbeat, fun country songs that you would like to hear at a wedding. I've spoken to a couple people at work and I have a couple ideas-
Garth Brooks - Friends in Low Places
Gretchen something - Redneck Woman
Some band whose name I already forgot - Save a horse, ride a cowboy
Well, that's about 12 minutes.
And on a related note - do you know what you get when you play country music backwards?
You get your girl back, you get your pickup back, you get your dog back..............
