    If its proper circus folk then thank the ringmaster at the end or they will hurl cabbages at you or something.
    Circus etiquette or something? Made that mistake twice in the last few years.

    Yep this will be our third year of providing the crew and equipment for a small circus company called Giffords Circus ( www.giffordscircus.com ) but sadly can't help on the music front as every year the show has it's music composed especially for the theme of the show... Here's a short video of some of the music from last years show - The Saturday Book

    Thanks James, that vid looks and sounds like a lot of fun.

    I've managed to source a few of the tracks Toby listed (the American Main Street band stuff) which I think will fit. As mentioned, I've not actually been asked to theme the background music as such, but hey, 'fail to prepare...' and all that.

    Well, was a so-so night in the end, the Acts were great and got on really well with all the "backstage" people. The guests on the other hand....hard work...a split of older and intolerant of new songs and younger and intolerant of older songs. Still, the dancefloor ticked over, but I ended the night feeling like I'd been through the ringer a bit....There is a lot to be said for having requests ahead of the night....you can plan things better instead of trying to find happy mediums all the time, but I digress.

    Anyways, a few shots of the performers taken on my phone (hence quality)

    That looks like an "office summer" deco red theme night.
    I have done a few for them and recognise the props.
    I would love to work for that company its full of hot girls when you get there on the night.
