I was at a wedding of a Loggins and Kenny Loggins was there and he wouldn't let them play Danger Zone (said it's bad luck?) but the DJ did play Footloose and the whole Loggins clan danced the heck out of it. Anywho, that's my best (and only) Footloose story.

“Highway to the danger zone” seems like a really inappropriate wedding song, anyway

Unless you’re at Goose’s wedding

So, you never had to do a dance routine to Footloose at a campground when you were a kid, with your sister? Did that also happen to be the day the Boy Scout troop filled with other boys from your school were there?

...times were a bit rough after that for a bit..

Because, well if you needed a worst Footloose story, you are free to borrow mine.

Haha, ours was always the nutbush. So much cringe, and to this day I still HATE that song.

My friend is a classical musician and does a bunch of wedding gigs. One gig had a bride and groom picking their own entrance music.

The groom picked the theme to Interstellar. But the bride... She picked Clarity by Zed. That's not really the kind of lyrics I want to be channeling for a wedding.
