It's all relative.

I agree. You would expect sappy love songs to be play at a wedding.

Hotlegs said:

Even in a sea of sappy love songs, Everything I Do is a turd floating towards you as you try to swim away..

RocknRollDave said:

Great analogy!!

Hotlegs said:

Thanks!



Just make sure you keep your mouth closed whilst you are swimming..

Do you play weddings?

Is Bandykoot your band?

Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near?

PANDURITO said:

Bandykoot is my band, no I don't play weddings...generally speaking, although we DO have one wedding to do this year.


And Birds appear cos my hair looks like a nest

Well. You have a wedding and now you know the play list, don't you?

If I download It's been a long time... , will I hear you playing guitar?

I'm asking seriously

PANDURITO said:

Nah, they want rock music - I think they are bikers.




Although I may try and do a Metallica-meets-GunsnRoses version of that Angry Anderson song they used for Scott and Charlene's wedding on Neighbours.....It'd have to be somewhat speeded up, though

PANDURITO said:

I'm afraid not, no. I joined in May of last year and played my first gig in June (Hey, I like to be well-rehearsed! ) and the tracks were recorded before that.

We'll be doing some recordings soon, so watch this space.

Thanks for asking, though

Now THAT is quality wedding entertainment!


One of my favourite films, excellent stuff:



" ..but it was bu-u-u-u-ullSHIT!!!"

This Bryan Adams hate thing is becoming real old, real fast. Don't you have to go play guitar in your bedroom, or something?

surely the chicken dance and the macarena are more frequently played at wedding receptions than all of these put together.

It's not hate - it's pity.

BreddieMercury said:

Thanks!


I am honest enough with myself to know that I do need pity

Take cheer - the weekends' here.

Those songs were the most popular for the "first dance" as a (UK) couple.

I heard about a couple who asked the old lady on the organ at their wedding to play "the theme from Robin Hood" (meaning "Everything I Do", from the movie) for the slow dance. The lady agreed but gave them a funny look, when the moment came she played the old "Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding through the glen" song Think it's an urban myth

We were just discussing the chicken dance and its popularity as a wedding dance song a few weeks ago at work.

RipHer2Shreds said:

I think it is popular because everybody knows the words

RocknRollDave said:

Here are the words...

Maybe I am out of the loop, First one that comes to mind is

Here and Now - Luther
Back at one - Brian Mc Knight
At Last - Etta (my fav)
My Funny Valentine

etc.

Otis Redding's Cigarettes and Coffee will be the first song at my wedding.
