Covers band for a Wedding in the Coromandel

Post by Les_Paul86 »

Hi Guy's,

Just putting the feelers out there to see if there's any bands in the Coromandel area or willing to travel there for a Wedding gig?
Nothing is booked in yet and there may be a twist... I might do a few numbers with them :) Looking at March 2017? but that change.

If anyone has any links for sites or anything I can have a listen too that would be great.

A variety of catchy upbeat stuff would be good, something to keep everyone up dancing.

Cheers

Ha! 2017... sorry that wasn't very specific. There is possibility of it being a Friday Wedding though?

Why don't you just get a DJ? They've got heaps more songs that you can chose from, the songs will sound just like they do on the cd, which is way better than a band trying to sound like the real band, DJ booths add a touch of class to the look of the wedding, and lots of DJ's have cool lights like disco balls and stuff. I've also found it hard to find a band that can play the chicken dance, whereas a good DJ will play the chicken dance song at least three times, more times if you've got grandma's that want to dance. It's a no brainer really.

Well... if any of that occurs I'll keep the band booked and just pay them to let me play?... in an empty room, but with a great view and well dressed tables.
