Spring is finally in the air. A long semester of class, libraries and studying are completed. Time to get ready to say goodbye to close friends and roommates. Plans for summer or the plan of not having a plan for summer are ready to be hatched. A visit home to see the family is days away. What time is it? Time for your Spring Formal on campus!
Spring Formals are a lot of fun for a professional DJ. We get the opportunity to participate in students letting loose at the end of a semester wearing their best and acting like the emerging adults they are. College students are fun groups to party with. They understand the meaning of the words ‘letting loose’ better than anyone else. Hey they are where Animal House gained all its inspiration!
Every spring marks the beginning of the Formal season for professional DJs. This means we will have the opportunity to play music form a wide range of genres from Top 40 to Hip Hop to Classic Rock to House/Techno to 80’s hits. If it was popular in his or her lifetime, somebody is going to want to hear it! And they will dance, maybe not all of them very well but certainly with passion and energy. As the night wears on and the alcoholic beverages flow, formal slides into less formal until it becomes a dressed-up Frat party.
Any professional DJ who has experience with Formals knows how much these events can be. And you know what they foreshadow right around the corner… the college graduation season!
