Music (or, All The Cool Kids Are Doing It!)

I've changed my mind about the first dance song. While "Fireflies" does indeed put me into a disgustingly cheerful mood, it's just not that easy to dance to

I think I have a live recording of Jonathan singing Mandlebrot Set censored, but it's part of one long track that's the entire show.

I can cut it down with Audacity if needed. Just offering my services.

If it's something easily doable, that would be cool. But it's not really something I need anyone to put serious effort into, especially since this is a first-draft list. I'd feel terrible if you did the work and then we wound up not including it!

It should go something like this:

- acquire source mp3
- figure out where the section is you want
- select the section and clip out everything else (that's a two-step command)
- save as new mp3

The last one I did took me a grand total of 5 minutes, I think. Plus, I would have one for myself that I could play in the car without my 6 year old complaining about it :o)

I'm just offering. No strings or obligations attached.

That's a pretty awesome list. We danced to Coulton's "I'm Your Moon" - the live version from the concert CD. Sounds like your reception is going to be great :o)

Thankye. I'd been compiling it in my head for a couple of months, and finally spit it all out into text. We'll have to cull, of course, as I'm looking to have about 2 hours' worth of music.

While some amusing WTF's on the list I'm having a hard time imagining how one is supposed to dance to most of the rock-ish unless you're going to provide prop beers for everyone and a target concert stage to head bop towards.
