Hi Scott:

Song selections are fine, just a piece of advise, all I have been doing for the last 5 years in the Arizona area, 98% Ballroom Dances, key word "SENIORS", I mention this because of the tempos, those web sites have ranges of those, again, keep in mind that is most likely that you play for Seniors, so, keep it a notch slower, I am aware that each area is different, even here, when I play in the certain areas, people like the more Upbeat, other areas, prefer slower tempos, this is a "happy" average, Examples:

Polkas Between 108-112
Rhumbas 105-112
Tangos 114-120
West Coast Sw 113-117
Fast Foxtrots 145-170
Swings 150-175
Slow Waltzes 98-105
Viennesse Wltz 158-164
Chacha 120-129
Samba 102-116
Slow Fox 92-110
Medium Fox 118-140

HOpe it helps.

P.S. Other examples of West Coast Swing are:
Isn't She Lovely (Steve Wonder)
Louis Prima Basin Street Blues
Just a Gigolo (Slow it to 114)
Why Haven't I Heard From You by Reba McEntire
one of my favorites....!!
