ICYMI In Case You Missed It! Jam to Your Own Set List with a Silent Disco Have you ever wondered what it would be like to rock out to your favorite tunes in silence? Imagine what it would be like to listen to your preference of music, while hanging out with a friend who has the complete opposite taste! We’ve got a winning melody for you that Seminole Hard Rock Tampa created at the Gasparilla Music Festival March 7. Seminole Hard Rock sponsored the inaugural Silent Disco, which guests raved about upon exiting. Each listener who tuned in had three songs each, in which they could choose from three different “stations” on their headset. Disco attendees jammed out to one of three genres of tunes which were played by three separate DJ’s with their own station. At some points the entire crowd would be dancing to red, then out of the blue, there was a three color rainbow lighting up the stage. Hard Rock Girl Brendaly at Gasparilla Music Festival Listeners were able to choose from Deep House from Los Angeles, DJ Eli M, Classic Rock & Roll, R&B, the latest Top 40 tunes from DJ Ruff Ryda and EDM (Electronic Dance Music) from MPSoup. The 2015 Gasparilla Music Festival took place March 7-8 at Curtis Hixon Riverfront Park and Kiley Garden. Check out the video that shows off we rocked our own set list at Seminole Hard Rock Tampa’s Silent Disco at Gasparilla Music Festival. Visit http://blog.seminolehardrocktampa.com/ Touchdown!
