Band prices, daytime

I am having an off-peak, daytime wedding.  Should I expect to pay less for a band?  The date is April 27, 2013.

 

I heard somewhere that bands generally charge less for a daytime event because they still have the option of booking a night event....but I just don't see how that's possible if the night event is far away.  What should I expect?

    Try posting this on your local board!  It probably depends on the area, and on how much business they typically get...

    I think Bethcarrie is right, your part of the country affects price. In actuality everything (the effort they put in) is the same. You are right it's pretty hard for them to get another performance unless it's close by. No matter who or where, you can try negotiating.
