Thread: Our party was friday night

Tweet

I feel your pain. I think parties are just fickle and no rhyme or reason why they succeed or fail. My big to do is for my teenage son. Last year we threw together a last minute idea of a dance floor in the garage. Poor speakers, black plastic thrown up to cover the junk, a cheapo 20 dollar rotating light, and a strobe. The kids danced all night and didn't go anywhere else but for the bathroom and to the kitchen for pizza.

This year I invested in killer speakers, a professional sound activated dancing DJ lamp, spent a lot of time building planked dungeon "walls" to cover the junky shelves, added fog, and replaced my shop lamps with several 4 foot black light bulbs.

Not one teenager danced the entire night.

Go figure.

Sorry to hear about all your hard work going unnoticed. But, in your friends' defense, not everyone thinks abouthow much time and planning goes into setting up a Halloween party. And if they have small kids it may have been the tot night for them, or a lot of other reasons. many people just aren't in any sort of party mood this year. Hope you have better luck with next years party!
