Walking down the streets of most big cities, you can see them. On every telephone pole and every bulletin board there are flyers advertising performances by live bands. The names change from town to town, but the message is the same: these are your sources for homegrown musical entertainment. These are the places you turn when you want to feel the real music from the place where you live.
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.
Live musicians also provide an experience that is fundamentally different than the one you can get from a DJ. With the right songs, a DJ can get the party guests dancing, but DJs do not give the guests the anything interesting to look at. With a DJ, dancers can sometimes feel insecure if they are the only ones on the floor. With a band, however, the performers give everyone a new focus of attention. People in the audience can feel looser and freer, because they know that everyone is not looking at just them, but at the performers on the stage.
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.
Hometown acts can usually be found to cover a wider variety of music as well. Whether Rock and roll, rhythm and blues, country and western, or some other musical genre, you can find performers who can bring that to the performance.
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.
In short, live bands can bring unique qualities to any party. They can make any event memorable.
