Mr Cougar Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Alright guys; this big cat is getting hitched on Easter Sunday next year and I need to find a decent Irish band in Lancashire (I'm getting married near Wigan) can anyone recommend anyone good. I've been online and some of the bands I've heard are absolute pap, bad timing, can't sing etc. Our lass thinks this doesn't matter; I wholeheartedly disagree. Someone on here must know someone, I want upbeat, not a duo, prefereably guitar, bass, fiddle, whistle etc, energetic, need to play for about 1 -1.5 hours and get the crowd going.

OldGit Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Do you mean a band that plays whilst people watch or a ceilidh (kay-lee) band that calls the dances? As a ceilidh band musician that plays loads of wedding's I'd say the latter is better but then I would, woudln't I ... If you fancy getting all of your rellies to dance with each other have a trawl through the Webfeet listings for bands in your area.
