So what bands do you think make great music for parties (i.e., mostly upbeat without any slow or "gloomy" songs)? I was listening to Tenpole Tudor today when this thought suddenly crossed my mind.
Here's a few that come to mind:
Adam & the Ants
Wideboy Awake
B-52's
Ramones
The Fleshtones
Tenpole Tudor

THE GO-GO'S
HAVE ANY OF YOU EVEN LISTENED TO THE GO-GO'S? THEY WERE GENIUS, ESPECIALLY ON BEAUTY AND THE BEAT! THAT'S THEIR BEST CD.

The Go-Go's were definitely party material. I honestly haven't heard their new "comeback" material, but [i]Beauty and the Beat[/i] and [i]Vacation[/i] are up there with the best of them.

How dare you? BANANARAMA? BUT NOT THE GO-GO'S? BANANARAMA WOULD NOT EXIST WITHOUT THE GO-GO'S. . . THEY TOTALLY FOLLOWED THE GO-GO'S FOR INFLUENCE SO IT OUTRAGES ME THAT YOU CAN LIKE BANANARAMA AND NOT LIKE THE GO-GO'S!

dancingmonkey69, I LOVE the Go-Go's! The Go-Go's are one of my favorite bands, honest! In fact, I don't really care for Bananarama except for a couple of songs. I just thought I'd mention them because they had a few dance-y tunes, and I didn't want to
