We do NOT recommend going through a band’s song list and hand-picking songs for the band to play, as if the band were a juke box.  While a band’s song list contains hundreds of songs that they have played before, and could potentially play, it is not necessarily representative of their strongest material.  Bands know which specific songs they play best and sound strongest.  Repertoire varies from season to season based on the band’s chemistry at that point in time and what is working well at the events.  Bands often formulate sets in regards to tempos, song keys, lead singer interchange and set pacing.  Many bands feature segue-ways, solos, and extended parts that have been carefully planned & rehearsed.  For a strong, tight and powerful performance, we recommend you keep a general approach to letting us know your likes and dislikes.  Give us a handful of specific songs you would rather not have the band play, as well as a few general styles and songs that you would love to hear.  This will be a helpful tool for the band to use, while allowing the band to play to their strengths.
