LOL... too late.
I just got the "Pump It" compliment this afternoon. Played a wedding
reception, did Miserlou... and the 12 to 17-year-old set were chanting
"Pump It". Except we had our surf beat, and they tried to dance it
hip hop. Man, does that song get around quick!
I must admit, the group of 40 kids shouting the 'HAAH! HAAA!!!
HAAAAA!!!!!!!' on the intro was pretty cool, LOL.
Ah well... better than getting a request to play "Pulp Fiction".

good, I never expected to here you play Pump It! How come you didn't
do the vocals?" LMFAO.

genre.
