Played a wedding once at a fancy country club. Prior to coming into the reception hall, all the guests were having drinks in the adjoining lounge.
The Maitre D' (a real showman) told me he wanted music to start the second he opened the grand double doors to let everyone in. He opened the doors. We started playing...guests swarmed in, put down their drinks and began dancing.

I guess the Maitre D' had expected the guests to come in and sit at their tables. But, most were on the dance floor. He came up to me and made this request: "Can't you play something they can't dance to?"

I felt like asking him if he could serve them something they couldn't eat.
