WASP Wednesday: WASP Music

This WASP Wednesday Muffy and I are busting out the moves and old records. It's music, WASP style!
Everyone loves some good tunes, including the WASP. Instead of covering all types of WASP music, I am just going to cover a beloved category: oldies. WASPs love a good old classic and party music often includes songs by the Shirelles, The Four Seasons, Frank Sinatra and the Beach Boys. As we know WASPs also love a great party and one with a theme is also appreciated too. So not only do WASPs listen to 98.7 and 92.1 at home or on long drives through the Adirondacks or the coast, but they play them at the club and on the shore. Beach parties and bonfires are a favorite WASP pastime (try to channel SHAG, the 1989 movie)! Think a delicious meal (this is often done by a caterer as it is far more work than an at home Mardi Gras gathering) with s'mores to keep the littlest WASP entertained, families decked out in their beach club best and of course a LIVE Beach Boys cover band. The WASP clan will dance the night away to "Let's Go Surfin Now," "God Only Knows" (...where Bitsy would be without Tripp) and "Little Duece Coupe." Good Vibrations will be had by every WASP when the good music is playing!

Love this music! And that you say to channel SHAG makes me smile SO much. When my grandmother was alive she had all of the grandkids to stay at her SC beach house every summer, and she made us all take Carolina Shag lessons.
