Hey all,

I'm considering a few different bands for my LI wedding and was wondering if people knew anything about the following:
LiveWire Entertainment
AroundTown Entertainment
Stolen Moments

I want a band that can play the top40 type music thats on the radio, but also be able to play rock (classic to now).  If you have other suggestions instead of the three I listed, I would also really appreciate it!  Thanks!

    I booked Alive n Kickin, I LOVE THEM!
    They play everything from 40s swing to Jay-Z.  They change from 6-8 pieces, (I booked the 8 piece with horns) and they are doing the piano for my ceremony and cocktail hour.  They were also very reasonable.  male and female singer (boy the pipes on her!), check out some of these youtube links.
    Their website is www.alivenkickin.com

    The band had the huge hit in the 70s. Check out the songlist, it's huge plus they will learn anything you want.  PePe Cardona, the leader and original member is great to work with. I saw them at my venue showcase and they had hundreds of strangers all dancing together and up on their feet, if they can do that at a place where no one knows each other I am more than confident they will be great at my wedding!

    their hit Tighter, Tighter

    We used Vision.  Like the other bands, they could play anything.  The best feedback we got about our wedding was our music - they play medleys, so that the music doesn't stop unless you want it to.  They're with Franklin Wayne Music - I highly recommend!

    We JUST books Cross Midnight Entertainment. Rudy has been in doing this for 15yrs. We were able to hear them play at a private rehearsal. They play EVERYTHING and are very energetic. You can tell that he enjoys what he is doing.

    6Pc band with DJ, lighting, cocktail and ceremony music at an inredible price. We have booked another band and cancelled once we heard CME because we were saving crazy $$$

    We used Soul Revival and the dance floor was packed all night, we fell in love with them a few years back at a friends' wedding, and they were amazing at ours, people at work are still asking me about them.   www.soulrevivalband.com
