The goal is to please everyone. If there's a type of music that's not to your liking, come back a little later. Let the people who like a certain type of genre have their chance to party. It's never fair to hog the dance floor.

And with that, I give you this little youtube video gem.

Dance attendees please watch this video.

I disagree.  The goal is NOT to please everyone for it is impossible to please everyone.  This has been proven time and time again.  Someone requested nerdcore, and I do not even know what nerdcore sounds like nor have I ever heard of that genre.  Is that a real genre?  And if so, where would you hear it?

The goal is to have a big enough variety that will appeal to everybody of all ages.  Last year we had a nice sized variety, and turned out very good.  In fact, there were quite a few people that came up to me and said "This year's dance was the best dance in a long time."  This time, there will be even more variety, and more...room?  And maybe an extra night?  I'll leave it at that for you people to wander what I am talking about. :)

And I can't believe I forgot about that video!  EVERYBODY who plans on attending Dance, you need to watch that video...Seriously.

Lost me on that one. "Please" and "appeal" are synonyms. I do know about having more genres = more dance attendee satisfaction. But consider this:

This is where the INTERNET mix comes in, where I try to mix MANY GENRES and call it a mix set. One track could be nerdcore, then the next track, a star wars parody tune, the next track Haddaway, the next track Homestar Runner, etc. The only relation that all the tracks have are that they are found as popular tunes from the internet, and as long as the BPM matches.

This is the gap between a dance and a rave. No way in hell would this Internet mix work at a rave, but at an anime con dance, IT IS PURE EPIC WIN.

And yes I have done this at many anime cons from California to Nevada and to Texas, and it has been successful. Time and time again.

And I can't believe I forgot about that video!  EVERYBODY who plans on attending Dance, you need to watch that video...Seriously.

It has saved me many times. Especially the first rule about... playing...for... everyone.  ;)

I'm not a hardcore fan of Nerdcore, but I do know that it exists and has a following in the underground Hip Hop scene. It all has to start somewhere.

Seems this year will have a good mixture of everything, so it will give the young folks some air from the deep clubs tunes XD

Lol there was one time, one guy was like "Nobody is dancing to this techno shit. Play some harcore Hyphy rap!"

I went on the mic and said "If you're having a good time, SCREAM!" Majority of the party screamed loud for that! Idiot ranter walked with his head down with hot tears of shame. 

Good times.
