I'm trying to fill 45 minutes, playing during a meal, and before.
So far: Ain't She Sweet Hello Dolly Danny Boy (upbeat) Stout Hearted Men* Men of Harlech* Bill Bailey My Way Scotch and Soda (uptempo)
*No biab files for the ones I marked if you have them...share?
Looking for more, 60 to 65 year old hockey players retired from 'Old Timer's Hockey' about 80 guys. We used to smoke cigars and go to 'dancin' girl clubs in the 70's, right after the games. Mostly firefighters and law enforcement types, we played days when we worked nights. I only played 3 years broke my foot and it hurt to skate. Then we started a get together party once a year. Some rules are: No Christmas stuff, it's a 'stag' so to speak, we talk about guy stuff. Gotta go outside for the cigars, if it's snowing or raining we just take the nice Cuban home.
Any help with the list is appreciated.
Sarge, who was the oldest toughest sob on our team was 70 and still playing when we started the party. He threw the salad at the caterer and set him straight. "We drink scotch, eat Tbones rare, fried potatoes, green beans, apple pie, more scotch. Rabbit food is for wimmen and rabbits."

The way I would tackle this one:
The average age of your audience is around 63 years old. People are most interested in modern (or "pop") music, when they're around 18-25 years old. In the case of your audience that would be music from some 40 odd years ago. It is pretty save to assume that you can pick any hitrecord from 1965 to 1975 and please the croud with those songs.

Mike has a good idea - depends on your presentation limitations - how about Eagles "Take It easy", CCR "Bad Moon Rising" or some such Country-Rock Tunes. You want audience involvement ie singing, are you vocalizing or is this instrumental gig. Give us some hints, man.  Cheers

Sarge died a couple of years back. Heart attack. In WW2 he got machine gunned down one side, from shoulder to hip. Used to take off his shirt in bars and show the women, who promptly went home with him. Best guy to work for. Almost everyone hated him, but I spent 12 years with him as my captain, and it was all bluster. Always yelled at us before shift change and the other guys leaving felt sorry for us, having to sweep the parking lot on Sunday. Once they left he'd tell us it was a day of rest, and not to bother him. And he'd chew your out but when the Chief showed up and tried to go after one of us he stuck up for you and asked the Chief if that was enough bs or did he want go outside and duke it out. Then he'd chew you out once more for luck, wink, and go back in his office/bedroom. He retired when they rode his butt about smoking cigars in the station and in the truck. Told them, if the cigars go I go, and he did. He once told the mayor (female), she should do what god intended and get in the kitchen and have babies and leave the work to the men. Three days off. With pay, he was so proud of that. Came up to me once and told me if I played Moon River this year he was going to bust the piano with an axe. We had to sing God Save the Queen, and Stouthearted Men, then he usually was happy to try and pick up the waitress.
The problem with guys born between 45 and 50 in Canada, (which is me too), is that even at high school you'd never admit to liking Elvis and most of us knew our parents music from the Am Am radio band. Early Beatles and Stones stuff, then I went where there was no radio or TV for 6 years. (Way north).

I used to work a bunch of Canadian Legions when I lived in Calgary and they didn't want a lot of old 30's-40's era stuff even twenty years ago. Most of my gigs now are to people in the 45-65 age group and it's classic jazz, rock and blues. The older big band swing era stuff and things like Bill Bailey, etc is only for retirement home gigs because those folks are in their late seventies and eighties.

Thanks guys, Danny i've got the ones you mention, I've just found a few more, the file I have with all the songs in the folder has 11,000 songs, lots of duplicates though.
As to Bill Bailey, uptempo stuff like that works, you don't want a bunch of hippie love songs. I pulled out the horn and added 3 or 4 songs using that to break up the tendency to play B3 behind the backing tracks too much. Most of my piano style stuff is 'sentimental.'

I was going to suggest Beatles and Stones as they are the same age, but from your description, those are too modern.

Hey guys. I'm 70 years young and I live in a retirement village.
I'm an Aussie, so my list will have a bit of bias, but it would include anything from AC/DC, Cold Chisel, INXS - even Kylie.
Please drop that old stuff. You know, we oldies didn't stop listening to music as soon as we turned 25.

I'd have to agree, many of the songs are too old for the 65 yr old crowd. Since I grew up in the coastal SC area beach music was big but I like Moody Blues, Jethro Tull, The Cream, Clapton and his newer blues, Gordon lightfoot. It's hard to say what a crowd wants so why not ask several people that might be there.Hope it helps Wyndham

Baby Boomer Songs. From Elvis, to later Sinatra, to Beatles, to Del Vikings, to Dion, to Four Seasons, to Buddy Holly, etc. The 63 year old person graduated high school in 1964. He/she didn't like the big-band era songs very much because they represented his/her parents music. So you best bet is from early rock to the Disco era (include a few of those as well). Of course they didn't quit listening after graduating college, so you can include newer songs as well, as long as they aren't too hard core in any one direction. You will probably want to keep the volume in the audience to a level between 80 and 85db (settings = a-weighted, slow response on a sound level meter). You can get a decent sound level meter at Radio Shack for about $50 http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103667 . A little lower if they are eating dinner while they are eating. Later on in the evening you can crank the volume up a bit. I've been playing the retirement audience for a long time. It's were the majority of the good paying gigs are in South Florida. In the "old days" when you saw gray hair you played Glenn Miller. Now when you see gray hair you play Elvis Presley. See http://www.s-cats/com and click on the song list for plenty of suggestions. I also offer some Fake Disks with plenty of the songs already entered in BiaB format and I would suggest these two: http://www.nortonmusic.com/fake2.htmlhttp://www.nortonmusic.com/fake28.htmlPlease read all the info on the page before ordering. There is also a link on each page for the physical fake book, so you can open the book, open the BiaB file, and play along. Insights and incites by Notes

If John runs that Bose Compact system, he won't be needing an SPL meter at all.
The thing is marvelous and almost sets itself, just turn it up until YOU can hear it and so can everybody else.
For dinner sets, just back off a wee bit from there.

I gave my sound meter to a new Fire Inspector when I realized I was going to finish out as a Training Officer. Fire alarms in buildings had to be 20db over ambient in the bedrooms of apartments. That wee fact cost a lot of people some big bucks. En-suite buzzers sold huge for about 5 years.
I'm thinking of lending the Bose to a limited number of friends to try out, and then arrange a rental cost to use it. Maybe I deliver it, set it up don't know.
Thanks for the tips. I'm personally stuck in the early Lightfoot years, Canada always had a Canadian Content rule, so radio stations had to play one in 10 or so songs from Canadian Artists, writers or producers. We still have that rule to some extent, not sure to what extent.
And Guy Lumbardo was from London, so we were heavy on the big band stuff, and every Sunday nite the bandshell had a brass band, Sally Ann, Police Boys Band, etc. We went all summer if the weather was good, 7 to 9.

I used to work at a new car dealership with a guy who's gone now but at the time back in the mid 90's he was about 70 or so and used to be a big band 'bone player. He called Guy Lombardo "mouldy fig" music. That term cracked me up then and it still does. I still have to agree with everyone else here John. The title of this thread starts with "65 year old" and as Notes said, when did a 65 year old graduate high school? No high school I've ever heard of was playing Lombardo or Danny Boy at a student dance in 1963.
