My college roommate had a band called Lava Lamp for her reception at the Auburn Hotel. They are a 70's cover band with the polyester, afros, and everything. I know it sounds crazy, but they were a huge hit and had everyone dancing the whole time!
Sara B. replied:
They are from Memphis, but we used The Kathryn Fowler Stallins Band. More than suggest them!
Katie C. replied:
We almost booked The Connection Band but ended up not being able to in case of weather. Act of Congress is great too!
Jill S. replied:
2 nd Coming and Fly by Radio are booked by Music Garden. Chris and I listened to both if them, but you should, too. Connection Band is booked on Gig Masters. Don't know about Act of Congress.
Jason C. replied:
Razz Ma Tazz! No one sounds better and plays everything under the sun mom went to school with one if them.
Jill S. replied:
Go out to Gigmasters.com as well. I haven't had time, but they have a lot of bands that Music Garden does not have. Also.....tons more on music Garden than the guy Chris talked to sent! Love you, see you Saturday!
Jill S. replied:
Chris, I am just saying you book them through Music Garden. The only one I know is booked is Azz Izz!

Bonus Round for the band
Eric G. replied:
We had a solid 200 I believe. It was comfortable. We had both large round tables and high-boys scattered around the room. We had a spot designated in the room for an open-air photo booth so if you don't have that you'd have more room. Had a DJ and dance floor as well. The ceremony got a little cramped with 200 people, so that might be something to consider. Trish will take great care of you. If you need a photographer, my wife and I are wedding photographers! www.ericandjamiephoto.com. Let me know if you have any other questions about the Tutwiler. I'm such a huge fan of that place.

Honoured and chuffed to be your number 5 choice Mickey! Prehistoric Pets and Major Hero were brothers in arms at that time- And yes Mick, David Hunters played with us that night- It was the night that Marie lost her bunny! Doodlebug- another great band- Anyway, here's mine. 1- Nazareth- Town Hall 2- UFO- Wolves civic 3- The Skids- Digbeth civic 4- The Kinks- Town Hall 5- Neil Innes- Wolverhampton polytechnic Local 1-The Wide boys- Coach and Horses West Brom 2-The Playthings- Five ways David Hunters Lovechild- The Dog pool 3- Goats don't Shave- JBs 4- Dizzy Poppers- Chasetown 5- Major Hero- Peacocks A special mention to a band called "Battleship Pontemkin"- at Peacocks. Absolutely the worst band I've ever seen but absolutely hilarious! They couldn't even play the same song as each other at the right speed/ key- fantastic! And just constantly argued with each other on stage- I think they split after just two gigs. Such a waste!
