Halloween Bash needs a DJ!
by Halloweenluvr on 10/22/12Connecticut Street Armory - BuffaloUsually love the Variety Halloween Bash but its starting to get old. Go every year with a group of 30 or more people. This was the first year it was at the Armory. Was nice but obviously not as spooky as the Central Terminal. It was a little too lit up. Some of the lights in the main room should have been turned down or off to create a better atmosphere. Also, not nearly as crowded this year. In the end that turned out to be okay. Could move around more easily. The terminal could get mobbed. My suggestion, and everyone else I know that goes, is that this bash needs a DJ! People want to dance! The 3 band thing is getting old! That 80's Hair Band is fun but leave it at that! One band with a DJ playing fun music ( how about Michael Jackson's Thriller! It's Halloween for gods sakes!) in between sets. Plus, with this being a fund raiser, Variety could save money! Pick one band and then leave a DJ to make this party way more fun. I guarantee the attendance would increase. Our large group is actually talking about finding something else halloweenish to do next year...something with some fun music. Let's change it up Variety! This could be such a great event! Oh, also...keep it 21 and over! Starting to feel like a teen dance! The underage thing turns a lot of people away. Overall, nice event but could be way better. Needs some fresh ideas! Thank you Variety or putting it on.
