opinion on bands

So i am up to picking out a band. I am interested in:

Renegade
Heart and Soul
Projekt
Full House
NY Minute


The two i like best, based only on website are: Renegade and Heart and soul.
my dilemma is that they both have a showing on the same date/time and different places. and the next showings arent for like a month or so. Im so mad casue i feel like i have to see them in person before i can book the band. So i was hopnig for some opinons if anyone had used or seen either of these bands.

We are using Renegades and could not be more excited!!!! THEY ARE AWESOME! We saw them at a showcase and were blown away! And the band leader is such a down to earth, awesome guy! Definitely definitely check out their showcase :)They came recommended to us by many people!

I would def. see them all in person. I think it is so hard to base it off a video or audio track. Also, call them to make sure they have your date! I've only seen Heart and Soul. The female singer is amazing but wish they had two female vocalists. My FH saw the projeckt and loved them but they were booked for our date so I never saw them perform.,

we're using heart and soul - the female vocalist is amazing and i thought they did a great job with newer songs!

i went to a showcase of heart and soul and vision (both franklin wayne bands)- i ended up booking with vision, but heart and soul was really great!

def try to listen to both if possible, but keep in mind bands book up quickly (especially the good ones) so if you go see one of them on that day and feel as though you love them - book them and don't look back

Look into East Coast Band!!! They are amazing!! We saw them 4 times before we booked and we recently saw them last week at a bar in the city. We loved them because you can see them interact with the crowd and get everyone up and dancing, they perform at bars on LI and in the city. FM me if you want more info!!

We just saw Projekt last night and LOVED them but its the first band we saw. I feel like i should see some other bands before we book with them. but the other bands only have showcases over the next couple of weeks and im afraid to wait that long in case projekt gets booked for our date! ARGGGG

This is what i get so anxious about, im afraid places/bands will get booked while im looking at other the places.

we went through the same thing and we asked them if they could hold the date for us. they held it for a week but if these shows are just a week or two apart, it's worth a try. i'm glad we did b/c we booked with the band that we asked for him to hold the date for! good luck!

Ask them if they can hold the date for two weeks. I loved the first band I saw but was too scared to commit. Went to all these showcases and ended up booking the first band I saw. If you love them I say book them but I know it's hard with so many other bands out there. Even though I love my bad, I still ask myself if there are other bands that are better that I just didn't see yet!

Emily, Dave & Jill are booked with The Projekt! They absolutely LOVED them when they heard them at a showcase. :) They are very happy with their decision.

I am using RENEGADE and am so excited. I actually heard them at a wedding about 3 years ago (wasnt even engaged yet) and I just knew that when it did happen that they were the ones I wanted. When I did get engaged I booked them before my venue.. David is amazing to work with and full of energy!

Excited to hear how much you liked the band Vision.
We are going to the big 3 band showcase with their company (franklin wayne music) this Sunday to hear Vision, Heart & Soul, and Infinity all in one showcase!
We'll save time and hopefully book our band from one of those three! I've heard lots of good things about all of these bands!

I used Heart and Soul at my wedding and could not be happier with them. 6 months later people are still talking about them. I highly recommend them...you will not regret it!!!
