You can find them as you walk the avenues of any large urban area. Plastered on bulletin boards, walls, and light posts are handbills announcing shows put on by live bands. What they call themselves may change from city to city, but each flyer is essentially the same: come to our show and experience the local music scene. These are the musical representatives of your city. This is the sound of your town.

In most cases, these flyers advertise performers who will appear at local clubs and venues. On a weeknight, maybe five different acts will set up at your local tavern. On a weekend there are usually fewer acts, but bigger names will take to the stage. In each instance, these musicians provide unique organic experiences. No live show is ever the same as any other.

Watching a band play at some local venue, however, is usually a different scene than seeing the same band play at a party or hosted event. In a nightclub setting, neither the band nor the audience can really tell what to expect. Will the crowd be excited to see them play? At the nightclub, no one can really tell until the show starts. At parties and hosted events this is different because the band and host have had a chance to work things out in advance. The crowd is guaranteed and everyone involved can be more relaxed.

Though DJs can provide their own kind of experiences, actual musical performers can make give a party a very different feel. Particularly, live musicians can take the pressure off of people in the audience and allow your guests to feel freer and unrestricted. DJs, though they can play hit songs, do not provide any visual stimulation. When your guests want to dance they may feel like everyone is looking at them because there is nothing else to look at. With actual musicians, however, especially a good group that can really work the crowd and keep attention n themselves, your guests do not have to feel unnecessarily self-conscious.

Homegrown talent can also give your guests a better sense of your citys actual creative expression. When DJs play, they take the latest songs that are popular from across the country and one DJs set in one city can usually be interchanged with another DJs set in another city. Only occasionally will a DJ have a deep enough library that he can play songs by local acts. Actual bands from your area, however, usually create music based their experiences in the local scene. These performers are usually more able to address the actual tastes and interests of their audiences.

For variety of musical tastes, a live ensemble is also a good choice. Many bands can play in a number of different styles whether it be rock and roll, rhythm and blues, country and western, or some other particular type of music.

For parties, bands are great because they tap into something essential to human consciousness. Making music as a group is a primal activity left over from our earliest ancestors. When bands play and create music on the spot, it can move people in a special organic form.

All in all, live bands are an asset for any party. They can make every event an enjoyable one.
