  • The Beatles. :)
  • Would love them to have them but I don't think at £35 a head, the evening would break even!

    i second that..... the only band that i have heard do cosy powell dance with the devil.....

    i also think orangefall are fantastic... but i would my hubby is in the band...lol......( playing down the pink in ponty on the 29th ( i think) of spetember ..)

    it all depends waht type of do you are having.. and the average age of the people that are going to be there...

    if i remember rightly fat barry... goes out with various line ups..... i have also heard they are a bit on the pricy side...

    i would suggest you find your nearest pub that is known for good live bands etc.... and spend a few weekends... listening to them... and take a few mates with you... so you have a few opinions on the bands.....

  • You don't say whereabouts you are, but this is the myspace of a local band that I have seen a few times.;)

    They don't really sell themselves very well on there- they are much better than that. Very entertaining for a wide range of tastes and ages.
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine
