This one made me realize that I have lived away from the U.P. longer than I lived in it. I'm not much on bragging, but I know my music, and I looked at that list again, and again, and again, totally perplexed. When you revealed what it was, it hit me: no one on earth would play a single one of those songs at their wedding...except everyone in the U.P.! (Well, our sweet and quite traditional staff person DID, on a sweltering Nebraska summer evening, in an farm building of some sort, with no A/C, after many, many pitchers of beer had been desperately consumed, have "Hokey Pokey" played, and quite divinely kicked off her shoes and led the dance, to everyone's memorable delight and amazement.) I have two questions. Why did you not mention your own magical musical wedding, which I still remember vividly, for the music (not to mention the temperature, the fun, and the joy)? Well, I probably know the answer to that. Second, who would play Billy Idol's copy of Michigan's own Tommy James' Mony Mony? (I would play them both, myself.) Thanks for another great article/column/chapter/blog. Now, who is going to stop me from singing "In Heaven There is No Beer" where it is not exactly appreciated?
