What if my timings change after I've booked you?
no problem, we are very flexible to work with - and can modify the lengths of the sets and start/finish times to suit - just let us know so we can discuss
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
we can provide pre-mixed tracks on two ipods for breaks - we can customise that content

Ideally 90 minutes to fully set up and sound-check
we can play ipod music as required after that
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
you can look at our song list and select a few definitely to be played and if you wish, any to be avoided!
