You can bring food in... More

How about playing jitterbug music you can dance to. The stuff the MC now plays is horrible. Many people quit going going because of this. Play Rockin Robin and Kansas City and Just a Gigilo and StaggerLee good beat type jitterbug music. The MC plays impossible to dance to music like Monster Man...gimmie a break.
