Definitely. I think music and dancing are key components of any party. They keep the environment lively and joyous. In fact, without music and dancing, a party would be really boring. So people often try to avoid parties if they don't enjoy any kind of music and dancing. They can stay at home and enjoy some food with their family members rather than coming to parties and wasting their time. So I think that music and dancing are really important in parties to keep people busy and attentive.
