Want to host a party? As a party host, you choose a theme for your party and start it by a new topic in the Party Room. Start your party with a description of your party theme and post a video, showing yourself, including your face, playing a piece along the party theme. Ask others to join in by posting a video, showing them playing, including their face, that follows your party theme. 

Out of respect to the host, please do not change the theme, or discuss another theme. If you want to have another party theme, simply start a new topic as host to another party. We can never have enough parties!

If you have not received a Party Badge, to get the badge, you need to think up a theme not used in about 4 months, otherwise, it does not matter if a theme is repeated.

Not repeating in 4 months is not for those who already have a Party Badge.

Here are some theme suggestions, a holiday, Bach Party, 60's party, Waltz, 6/8 Themed party, etc. Party On!

We all love Birthday Parties. You could even have a variety of themes for a birthday party. Have the first post by the host announce who the birthday party is for and follow up with something like, “Let’s celebrate, so and so’s birthday with a Nat King Cole Party!”

As with all videos, do not use the same video in more than one party or more than once in the same party. Likewise, as with all videos, full face must show in the video for it to count towards any badges, also.

The Party started, never ends. You can add a new video to any party, at any time. Here, the PARTY NEVER ENDS!

@Mouse -

Do all Parties continue on, indefinitely?

@ELCBK Yep, can post a new video any time you want.

I would, also, wait a while before doing a repeat theme. Not sure how many members would want to keep on doing the same party theme over and over. I would give it at least half a year, maybe new members will join in at that time. But you can add to any party at any time. Just don't be using the same video in more than one party, or in the same party. What would be the point, for one thing? 😁

I edited the above Party Room post to reflect this.

I would like to suggest the guidelines be modified, since we have members who wish to participate, but don't want to follow these Party guidelines. 

I personally believe the Parties encourage people to overcome problems with performing in front of a camera, besides trying new music, but maybe it should be encouraged to participate in any way possible.

I would support that with the following caveats:

1) It's not for a badge.

2) This modified form of participation cannot be used to start (host) a party, but can be used to attend.

Characterize people by their actions and you will never be fooled by their words.
