I’d be more surprised if you could just walk out.

Started running last year, after reading Phil Knight - Shoe Dog. Ended up stopping around November and December, when life got a bit crazy, but I’m back on it now. Only running a couple of miles, but doing it a couple of times a week. All good. I think I like that it’s not a team sport, and just seeing if I can push myself.

Someone trying to score cool points for knocking something cool.

Might be getting married sometime in 2020. Just trying to arrange all the nonsense that goes along with it and seeing if it’s actually doable this year.

Does anyone know of a decent wedding band who…

  1. don’t play all the woeful shit you hear from most wedding bands like George Ezra, Ed Sheerin, Adele, Bruno Mars, Pharrell Williams, The Killers etc etc etc

  2. Don’t look like bellend teenagers in full Topman attire?

I know the bird and guitarist in this band

Both have been in decent metal/rock bands as teens.

Guitarist went on to tour a musical round the world so well above pub band standard.

They played oli sykes from bring me the horizon wedding.

May not be the right fit, I just know they are good musically and should be down to play loads of different stuff as well as obvious wedding songs

the only good wedding band is no wedding band

Any half decent covers band will be able to play whatever you want. Don’t worry about the pop, but mind that the aunties and kids might enjoy that.

This band played my first wedding reception:

Had a ceilidh band at the second. You can’t go wrong with music that nobody likes yet is obliged to try to dance to.

I think the main thing is a good DJ for when everybody’s drunk. The band is a bit like the speeches, nobody cares. Also it means some local DJ gets four times what he’d normally be paid to play fun music.

Yeah I’m kinda thinking of just getting some good mates to do some funny DJ set and maybe a bit of karaoke.

The confidence levels in wedding band lead singers makes me cringe so hard.

yeah we just had mates playing classics all night, was a belter. crowdsurfed to a little respect an all

This thread opened up at all the nickname chat from a few weeks ago and “Irish Steve (real name Scottish Phil)” fucking killed me.
