In April, I am hosting a party at our house for my friend Laura’s birthday. She came up with the party theme of money – both in excess and the lack there of. Everything will be green and gold and silver. We are suggesting that guests dress either filthy rich or dirt poor. Champagne and 40’s in paper bags!

This afternoon I spent time going through both Dan’s large cd/mp3 collection and available songs on iTunes to come up with a possible play list for the party (for before we turn on Rock Band).

The bold are song that we already have… Of the songs we don’t have, are any worthwhile?
