What type of music do you want around the pool at the phx forum?
 

We are trying to get an idea of what to put on our playlists for the music by the pool, and we want to get a good selection for everybody

any ideas?


weather here is looking great, btw =)

Limp Bizkit!

I won't be attending, but if I were I'd say death metal. Nothing gets the business mojo flowing like death metal.

Cypresshill ;)

Opera........if I can't be there no one should have any fun :disgust

why do you have to have music? its a business function not spring break. At the atl one the music was too loud, by Sat my voice was gone.

tony, i assure you we will not discriminate...we will accommodate those who require utter quiet to conduct business as well as those that require talking in front of a speaker at the club and everything in between...

reggae is always good by the pool

Nothing says pool like some Reggae ;)

some cafe del mar in the mornings would be nice

make that my vote as well:thumbsup:thumbsup

that kind of stuff would work all day for me!!




:thumbsup:thumbsup


.

looks like I will be the 4th vote for some Reggae :rasta

gotta agree! too bad I won't be there to enjoy it.. Party extra hard for me guys :thumbsup

Angry Hispanic lesbian music.

Seriously.

What? Why not? :(

Something I can shake my ass to

:thumbsup

Also stuff like Sublime...

got some medical issues I'm dealing with and won't be up for it.. but anyways..

March and big band.

Awww, I hope everything works out ok. I'll miss seeing you

You turned lesbian ?:Oh crap

Anything by the Jonas Brothers

Whatever the chicks start dancin and groovin to. Keep that going :)

5th that... marley has a strange way of bringing back the good times of the 30 something crowd

any pop... hip hop whatever

techno :P

Shake Y'er Bon Bon Baby.

:thumbsup

I have a difficult time speaking with people in loud areas... particularly clubs... but music by the pool in Phoenix was never really an issue. It created a "fun" vibe. It's 3-4 days... every moment does not need to be "business", some of the best business can be done when you are relaxing by the pool having a nice cold beer on a scorching hot day.

I would do a mix of reggae, a little blues (BB King can give you a nice real setting, I think,) maybe some sort of funk... something like Femi Kuti could be sort of fun.

I would stay away from pop and hip-hop personally... you get enough of that at the clubs at night.

People want a little music to give add to the audio aesthetics, but not take focus away from the conversations & networking etc.


What you want is called

Downtempo or Chill

Some examples

While this may not be the type of music that people want when they want the music to be the center of attention, it's the kind of music to enhance the experience without being a distraction.

DnB!!!!!

Bro you crack me up...:1orglaugh Can't wait to see you in Phoenix I'll have the mrs with me this time..:thumbsup

Katy Perry: I kissed a girl (And I liked it)

On loop.

Otherwise I agree with the death metal suggestion.. Although id like something on the melodic side to keep me thinking, or the tech death metal for the same reason.

Opeth
Gojira
The Faceless
All Shall Perish

But on a serious note.. Id say either hip hop / RnB or light techno (I REALLY dig Kuba, he does chillout ambient stuff.. really good, really relaxing and it doesn't have to be loud to sound good)

Celtic Frost

I would ask Steve PP, he'll make sure half of the people will get a heart attach and half will leave earlier.

:winkwink:

i only went to strip clubs that played metal in the Valley

metal, period.
