As you prepare for your school dance, you might look at it from the angle of a student, a teacher, a chaperon or a date. In any event, a school dance is no different from any other party, you want great food, lots of friends and people and great music. The food can be overlooked depending on your mood, so can the people around you, however, there is nothing more influential then music to set the mood of a party.

It is the lifeblood of the entertainment aspect of having fun and the one that makes it fun is the one playing the music. There have been setting before where a teacher, parent or student has taken the reigns of the music department and played the night away. In other cases, there have been situations where music will be provided by way of a tape of CD continuously playing over and over.
