DISCO/FUNKY MEDLEY DINNER SHOW-a 10-12 minute feature begins with MacArthur Park a number originally performed by the "Queen of Disco" herself, Donna Summer. Starting as a ballad, the number quickly moves into a pounding disco beat with strident horns and a soaring vocal. The Sensation dancers burst onto the dance floor in full boogie - a great opener! Next the band performs Boogie Fever, that great classic by the Sylvers. Some guests certainly will put their forks down and join the fun. Sensation seamlessly moves into more great 70's hits like Get Down Tonight and Staying Alive! It's all capped off with that barn burning hit Disco Inferno. What a great appetizer for the great dance party that awaits! (Listen to sample on BAND OPTIONS page) |

SWING/BIG BAND DINNER SHOW-As those drums start pounding the swing dancers make their way on to the dance floor and set the tone for those swinging horns for that unforgettable instrumental from Benny Goodman Sing Sing Sing. Next, it's that great Louie Prima hit Jump Jive and Wail. The dancers are out of breath so the band will play a request of Frank Sinatra's "Fly me to the Moon." A great vocal, great horns - a great song! Now that everyone's in the mood ...you guessed it'that Glenn Miller swingin' classic gets the dancers and the crowd revved up! Finally, the set is capped off with Natalie Cole's version of Route 66. What a perfect taste of America's original popular dance music. (Listen to sample on BAND OPTIONS page) |
