Yes, but would usually retain the three-piece brass section.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
Not a problem as long as we have reasonable notice.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Yes. Our PA has a channel for your input.

Usually about an hour to two hours depending on access.
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Yes it is.
