casino entertainment director stupidity story
I know I've bitched about general stupidity in the choices made by casino entertainment directors once or twice before. This one's about the idiotic music selections in a vegas casino on a recent occasion.
This casino plays some great music, but they mix it up with some of the most vomitous chunks ever spewed forth in the history of man. This night's choices really friggin' cracked me up tho... Beck - "loser" (I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me) Followed by a DOUBLE SHOT of... Enya I'm pretty sure playing that particular beck song ON GRAVEYARD IN A CASINO got the guy fired. Still chuckling days later about that one. Al |

Stuck, I took a bathroom break. As I walked into the mens' room, I was greeted by that old Beatles song:
"I'm a loooooooOOOOOOooooooooser! And I'm not what I appear to be..." I thought to myself, "That's one song they should never play in a casino." Later that night, i heard a similar example, but I can't recall it just now. |

I was considering a laydown... It wasn't even a huge decision just mulling it a bit when the Riverwind's sound system filtered into my conciousness with Aerosmith singing a chorus of "Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go" Thank you Steven Tyler |

For about a week the PB Kennel Club played the Godfather soundtrack non-stop. It was good for about 30 minutes; the next 4 hours were torture.

I am happy that I am able to change the music at my current job.

I was in Vegas in June 2006, and during my marathon sessions at Bally's I must have heard "So you had a bad day" about 2 times an hour. I know the song was popular, but it just really struck me as an unwise (although fitting) song for the casino to be playing.

"We are the champions" to pump up the players
"I want to hold your hand" just to see the smiles |

Re: casino entertainment director stupidity story
Mmmm, don't the casino's just pump in music from the satellite? I don't think they put their own music together...
So you get what the system plays, positive or not. |
