Get 'em drunk, they all love that formula. It worked in Afghanistan, it worked in Germany, it worked in Japan, it worked in Korea… the list could go on.
ETA: Dude! Gimme your Top 5 songs to get people dancin’! I’ll gotta learn 'em this week! No fooling.
For starters, I’m not a dude. I also don’t have a list for you because I have never spent any of my time thinking about how to make other people dance, nor how others might make me dance (drunk or otherwise). If we somehow ended up at the same party and you (or anyone) pulled a guitar out, I’d get up and walk away from the area (as I’m sure at least a few people did in every single one of the times you mentioned, you just didn’t notice).
So like I said - you do you, but know your audience. You’ve obviously found plenty of “your” people, just enjoy that, but not everyone likes the same things you do, and that’s ok. Suggesting getting people drunk so “everyone” enjoy what you’re doing? Not so much.
My advice: you do you, but find your audience lol that definitely wouldn’t work in every crowd… 😂

Ah! Here’s where I may have confused you. I’m talking about at a gig. Not, like, sitting around a campfire or some junk.
