Play them some cheap, fast, easy to listen to ska music....done well, you can't fail.

Play something that you like ... You know that little buzz you get when you hear songs you like.. Now we are on the same page...

Everybody likes ska! :D

Someone played that Red Jumpsuit Apparatus song, Face Down. It was pretty good, though I hate that song. So, like, pick something lively or something R&B. That's what a lot of people chose for the Talent Show, and it was beastly. A lot of stage presence is needed for those songs, it's so soulful.

You're right man,
such people like Coldplay..
It will work, I'm sure of that ;)
