Imagine a scenario. You are at a party, and only a few people are dancing. The music is generic pop music that is being played just about everywhere right now. The people who are dancing are doing so rather awkwardly, as the music wasn't really meant for dancing to. Other people are just sitting around and doing nothing or chatting dully. No one is that excited about the music, as it is what they have been hearing everywhere else. It is generic - it is not a private party band.
Now imagine a second scenario. You are dancing, and feeling lots of energy flowing through you. Just about everyone else is dancing as well, and they all seem really happy. You have never heard music exactly like this before. You hear voices from microphones, and the sound of live instruments. You are in the zone with a live band.
Live bands are great for parties, weddings, office functions, etc. Because they are full of life. When people hear live music, played soulfully by people who love music, they often react better to it. It is often more enjoyable to dance to music that is being played in front of oneself than it is to dance to music that comes out of some speakers.
People often like listening to old favorites, but dance song recordings can get old. When one goes to more than one wedding in a short period of time and both weddings use DJs, it is likely that they will hear many of the same songs. And these songs will be the original recordings, so they will be played exactly the same.
However, with live bands you can hear either original music or new renditions of the classics. Some bands may also offer a mixture of both. Also, with a live band you can get more creative with the type of music played at your wedding or function. When people see a DJ, they often request classic dance songs that everyone has danced to before. However, with a live band they can play swing music and no one will request a rock song, for instance.
Because these bands feature live people, they can interact with guests in a good way. DJs tend to keep the ball rolling, while live bands are out there with the people. They may have some audience participation.
Live bands are also great because when you hire a live band you are supporting several people. Some bands are cover bands and play specifically for functions, while other bands use parties to make it to the next step in their career. By supporting them, you may be supporting their dream.
Thus, live bands are a great choice for private functions. They are not appropriate for every occasion, as they may be somewhat costly. But if you want energy, uniqueness, interaction, and vibrancy, you may want to consider hiring a band for your next function. They may offer a freshness to a boring and stiff function that cannot be found many other places.
