re: Playlist suggestions for Party

My brother is a big music guy and I mostly borrow his CD's (yea he still buys them instead of downloading) As a result, I mostly listen to bands like Bright Eyes, National, Florence and the Machine, Metric, Decemberists etc. In other words, not stuff you really hear at parties. Not bad for background music when a few people are over, but nothing like party music for a fun cocktail party.
