Members New Trail Posted September 18, 2014 Members Share Posted September 18, 2014 Because of a cancellation, and the unavailability of different members of each of the bands with which I am affiliated, I find myself in the position of throwing together "a band" to play a gig here locally, helping out the venue, really. However, we won't have time to rehearse, maybe once, if at all. I need some song ideas, EASY song ideas, and a name for the band as well. Any ideas considered. It's sort-of a society type gig so the songs need to be well known and danceable. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vito Corleone Posted September 19, 2014 Members Share Posted September 19, 2014 After you throw the band together, find out from the members who-knows-which songs and go from there. The songs that everybody knows are going to be the first ones the do. The ones 3 out of 4 of you know are the next ones. As far a band name goes--- Melting Pot might work for you under the circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
