Organising a band

[Mythical Creature]

Since I have a bit of time on my hand at the minute I have been given the job of organising a band for the last home game of the year. Anyone had previous experience with good ones. Looking for something that plays a good mix of covers. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!

This is all about budget MC. A half decent cover band that does covers for four or five hours will set you back $1000+
A garage band of uni students will do it for petrol money and some free p1ss.
Ring the Bentleys Hotel in Clare and get contact details of local boys Paul Jam - they are apparently pretty good

There are a few going around, we have one for our mid season show tomorrow week, bands name is Azz If, do covers from the 70's through to now, 4 hours worth as well and about 1k

Get on to the boys from Nth Haven, love a band over there

Saw Radio Oz at SMOSH a while back. They took you on a musical journey from the 60's through to today with mostly "anthem" type tracks, the type of stuff everyone would know.

What about DJ Guthy??

We had a band from Adelaide travel down and play at Meningie footy club last week end, they were excellent and played a good range of covers, called the LADY KILLERS

We had a band come up to the Berri Footy Club last month called "The Incredibles". They were great, because they play everything, so good for all ages.

325 Blonde are a real good band.

[Not Scared]

The Billy Grufz, from Meningie, are good. Good blokes too and at a reasonable price.

not going to name the band, but we had a terrible band last nite for our cocktail night...barely played, stoped midway through a song, singer reading lyrics of the stand 5 people in the band. would hate to see how much the club wasted

i know its past the last game now but broken theory are a great coverband they play songs from pearl jam,greenday, matchbox 20, kings of leon, foo fighters, powderfinger etc we have had them at the hawks and it is always a top night. u would be looking at $1000 but they play about 42 songs per gig which is usually 3 sets of 13 or 14 roughly. keep it in mind if you need a great cover band.

Cheers Axe. Our last home game is this weekend and I ended up organising "The Lady Killerz" thanks to Grasshopper.

So far they have been very good to deal with and I will find out this week if they put on a good show. Will let everyone know next week how they went.
