Search for songs on YouTube.com YouTube has almost any song you can think of. On their web site, there is an option to save your songs on a playlist. Click the button bellow the video that says "+ Playlists". You will need a YouTube account to save and access your playlists. When choosing songs, consider the people who will be listening to them. Be sure to pick music everyone can enjoy rather than be distracted by. Fights do happen over music preferences, especially if alcohol is involved. Select more uplifting music, after all Labor Day is a festivity. Keep the volume on medium. Screaming over music is not fun; it also keeps the group voice level down.
