BAM! What do you get when you mix the 4SO Crew, 20′ of trussing and lighting, major amounts of sound, giant screens, glowsticks, and special shoutouts from Lil Jon, Cupid, TREAL, 69 Boyz, Ying Yang Twins, Tay Dizm, 3 6 Mafia, Diamond, B.o.B, Acafool, and many others? You get one heck of a prom! Let’s mix in over 650 kids (tickets were OVERSOLD) and the coolest administration (the vice principal danced to every song) and this prom was destined to be great!
The theme was perfect: Legends of the Orient. As you can imagine, the food was all oriental and it was delicious!!! I was told to eat all I wanted since the students weren’t eating because there were too busy dancing. Disney’s Dolphin did an amazing job with the food.
Music was REALLY interesting for this event, as you can tell by the video. At the end, I did my usual megamix where in the last 30 minutes I mix in anywhere from 40-80 songs. The biggest hits of those were (in order): Hypnotize (Biggie), Nothin but a G Thang, This is How We Do It, Party Up, Jump Around, Don’t Stop Till You Get Enough, and then Play That Funky Music… yes, disco, at a prom! Yes, the reaction was huge.. possibly the biggest all night. There would’ve been more video footage, but Derek was too busy with the lights and video camera management. Monica’s usually with me on this, but she had her own prom across the street at Disney’s Yatch and Beach Resort.
We had 7 events that night, 6 were large-scale proms– they all went smoothly and everyone rocked. Unfortunately, we were using ALL our roadies so I had no one to bring with me to film, every little bit. Even then, the video is great– YOU GOTTA SEE THIS!
