Hi everyone! Our duo currently performs at Sheraton Hotel and Towers in Hong Kong and the outlet is an American restaurant/bar. The management decided to decorate the bar accordingly to the Halloween night and also recomended me to perform some special songs for that special evening. Could you please inspire me with some right selection as I am almost clueless. IP: Logged |

Flavi, I visited your site and you have a great list of songs that you play. I have to say that Mary is a knockout. Sorry I can't help with the Holloween thing. Maybe Monster Mash by Boris Karloff? Chuck IP: Logged |

I always play Haunted House. Also there's a country song named "Ghost In This House". Not scary but the title and hook line fits. DonM IP: Logged |

"I Put A Spell On You Creedence Clearwater Revival" VERY good song to do for sure...just make sure you don't use the creedence version as your foundation. A husband wife could pull this off great, just also make sure you have a SOLID bass tone backing you up ( even perhaps some reverb on the drumwork Anyhow this is Halloween, so go nuts...perhaps do some stuff like the Hitchcock theme, or monsters theme, twilight zone, even Adams family. Even if you just use that stuff to trans between your main songs. Other then that check out some horror/sci-fi movie soundtracks, you don't have to scream a predictability insulting "monster mash" at someone to set a mood. Past all that...just take whatever songs YOU enjoy doing already, and give them a darker tilt for the night. Way quicker to adjust something you know to fit in with a mood...then to learn a top twenty overplayed song list. IP: Logged |

Flavie, Post Away!!! A few nights ago, I was reading your posts in the Ketron forum. You made some good points and gave AJ some good examples. There is nothing wrong with your english. Even if there was, there's a bunch of fine people out here from all over that can help assist any of us with communicating. You and Mary do a really good job. I enjoyed the old Monty Python tune "Always look on the bright side of life". Halloween: Have Fun! Ed IP: Logged |

I just discovered a fun Halloween song written by Buck Owens (1974) called: "It's A Monster's Holiday". I bet DonM knows this one I look forward performing it for the first time on my Halloween gigs this year. The kids should like this one:Chorus: Verse 1: There were gremlins and goblins (CHORUS): Verse 2: There was screaming and moaning (CHORUS)

I love Buck Owens Scott! Thanks! Good one. EDIT: Man, this is perfect for what I want. I've been snooping around at country bars to do a crazy Halloween gig. Stuff like that Buck Owens is perfect. Marie Laveau by Bobby Bare is too. [This message has been edited by SemiLiveMusic (edited 10-12-2004).] IP: Logged |
