My fiance and I have looked at a few bands- To name a few... We've seen
Code Bleu Extreme Heart and Soul Vision and a few others..
Of those 4 - we liked Code Bleu initially, then after seeing them again, we didn't think they were as lively..
We both liked Extreme, but my fiance liked them better... (I felt as though something else was off)
Heart and Soul had an amazing amount of enery, but my fiance thought something was off with their sound..
Vision we did not like..
So that leaves us at this moment very confused.
I want to look at some Steve Scott Orchrestra Bands, Star Light Orchestras, Hank Lane Bands, and Creations..
Of all of these bands, how on earth do we choose one? We are obviously looking for a great band 8-9 pieces, that have lots of energy w/ great sound..
Comments, opinions, etc... Thanks :)

Energy? You want to check out Times Square Orchestra, Faze4 Bands (play by play the original, etc) and if you have budgeted a lot, NYCswing...just my opinion :)

I also don't know most of those - Renegade came heavily recommended to us, and we loved them. They might be worth checking out - you can preview them on the web at www.liparamount.com I think... good luck!
After looking at many of the bands you mentioned, we selected NYC SWING. I highly recommend that you check them out!
www.NYCSWING.com
Please feel free to FM me for pricing if you are interested.

Re: Music Bands.. Please Help!
if you are looking for energy, definately check out 'The Projekt'
They play everything from 50's to rap! They have a play list on their website but it is not up to date

Re: Music Bands.. Please Help!
I highly recommend our band - Paris which is part of Soundcheck Entertainment. As far as advice - we looked at so many bands. See how in tune they are and see if you close your eyes if they really sound like the artist. Also look around and see how everyone else at the showcase likes them. Are people moving in their seats? That is a really good sign. Once we narrowed it down we brought a few more people with us to hear them perform. Good Luck!

We looked at sooo many bands as well and booked THE Projekt. They play every type of song (some bands don't play the newer songs) and they have two great female singers and the lead male sings everything. We also looked at NYC Swing and they were great but between $12-15K

For energy, I would definitely agree with some others and recommend the Projekt...and also Arcadia from LI Paramount. Both of these bands played a lot of different styles of music and had full dance floors the entire time.
