Thanks.
Only comment when I've got something to say. Stops me getting embroiled in things about which I have no knowledge or aren't my concern.
Glad you enjoyed it Andy, and thanks for the call to let me know it all went well. :thumbsup:Quote:

What an eclectic night. I won't put the full set down here (because it's Saturday & I'm in a lazy mood) but tracks of the night (best response) were:
Sisters of Mercy - Temple of Love 1992
the Cult - She Sells Sanctuary
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird
Pendulum - Tarantula
Lady GaGa - Bad Romance
Duran Duran - Girls on Film
the Kinks - Lola
BEP - The Time (Dirty Bit)
Snow - Informer
Oasis - She's Electric
the Pietasters - Same Old Song
& something that AFAIK I haven't ever played in a disco scenario:
Yarborough & Peoples - Don't Stop the Music
I played those two last night. 40th birthday, heavy on the 80's, particularly A-ha.Quote:

Tonights gig was a joint 30th birthday.When they came in i found out it was a fancy dress party.Just the usual suspects,superman\batman\wonderwoman.It seemed to turn out like a themed night.play a madonna song for the madonna girl,madness for the ska guys,ghostbusters for the ghostbusters guys.alot of the music was from the 1980s mixed in with the usual party stuff and latest charts.
Was asked to play tina turner proud mary,what a tune,not played this in a while
Gave out a few cards at the end so hopefully get more bookings.
Not got a gig now untill 26th Feb myself
I don't know about you lads North of the Border, but I'm getting asked for it very very regularly, tonight as well, just to prove the point.Quote:
