It's pretty easy to have a band rehearsal, add a few covers and think you're nearly there but in reality, if a client is booking you for their wedding, birthday or company do, they're going to wait you to be a polished and rehearsed function band, not the indie band they watch at the local pub.

You've got 2 hours of performance to fill so choose your songs wisely. If you can't imagine people dancing like crazy to a song, don't put it in. Mix it up, from 50's rock n roll to modern hits, you're going to want to appeal to people of all ages. Keep it current, always add a couple of summer hits to your set list, you don't want to look dated.

Myspace and social networking phenomenon gave birth to thousands of new indie bands with the promise of DIY stardom and careers in music, but what what happened 2 or 3 years down the line when that failed to materialise? We suddenly get a load of great musicians subsidising their originals bands with live function work. With Facebook and everything else, there's a platform to promote their music, an easy way to pitch to agencies and Youtube to show clients their live performances. And so wedding bands look cooler, younger and are more in touch with the current music scene.
