If you are planning a special event you should consider seeking out bands for hire to provide your music. Bands are available in any area and some will even travel if necessary.
A DJ with CD's or recordings is certainly entertaining if you hire the right one. A band playing the music live, though, is the way to go. Weddings and Bar Mitzvahs, to mention a few, are places where the live music is a big part of the fun. The emcee, which may be part of the band, will make comments and help guide the festivities.
With a live band, the mood of the moment can be changed as appropriate. When the crowd begins to get a bit exhuberant the band can play a few mellow tunes to cool it down a bit. If there's a dull moment here and there, they can play something to supercharge the action and get it going again. With a band on stage, they can decide moment by moment whether they need to change their sets to match or change the mood.
Musicians of all different abilities are available. The better and more professional bands are usually more expensive. You can hire a band with a bit less ability but with a good show for less money. This will depend on the budget you have set for your entertainment.
Although weddings and bar mitzvahs are most common for live band gigs, there are many other possibilities. Consider hiring live for a class reunion or a family reunion picnic. What could be more memorable than to see Great Aunt Martha dancing hip hop with your little cousin Jacob.
The music requested can be from the period of the classes graduation year and memories will be restored. A religious ceremony will need specific traditional songs played. Ethnic weddings have their own special musical renditions of traditions and will be expected by those attending. When you book your live entertainment, be sure to specify what the occasion is and find out whether the band knows the songs or the style that you think your guests will expect.
A good band, although not always the most expensive, may need to be booked well in advance of your event. The best ones always get word of mouth advertising that fills up their calendar quickly. Don't fret, though, if you don't get the exact band you wanted because they are already booked. You can handle in a few ways. If your event date is flexible and you just have to have THAT band, go ahead and change the date if possible.
When your hall has been booked with a no refund deposit and the invites are sent, you'll have less options for which band you'd like to hire. Not to worry, though. There are new bands being formed often and some of them are quite good and very professional. You may just be one of the first to hire the latest and greatest discovery in event bands.
Search the internet and phone books for booking agencies or book the band direct. By booking direct you can save the agency commission, but by using an agency you'll get help in choosing from many bands for hire and they can help you to choose the right one for your special day.
