Hiring The Stars

                         Things to consider when hiring the band.

 

  Plan Early!!  We generally schedule a minimum of 6 months ahead of time for a private party. It is best to contact us 9 months to a year in advance to ensure we can reserve your date. As soon as you reserve your venue - call us!! We are currently booked as far as December 2009.  See our calendar for open dates.

You do not need to hire someone to run sound.  No need to hire additional people to run sound, we prefer to run our own sound and use our own high end equipment .  Since our music style vary so extensively through out the night, this ensures you are receiving.g the consistent quality we strive to provide.

We differ froma a DJ.  It is sometimes dificult to follow a strict  "play list" of particular songs that you would like us to follow in a particular order. We are happy to work with you to determine the type of music you would like, however, we do ask for flexibility.  Feel free to let us know what genre of music you prefer and those types of music that you prefer to avoid.   Also let us know if you find any songs particularly offensive as well.  We just ask that you refrain from picking and choosing every song and a particular order from our  song list.   Again, we are a professional band and recognize that many of our popular "club" songs are not always appropriate for a wedding or a private party. We know that you don't want to see your grandparents grinding to "I Want Your Sex". We will work with you to ensure your party is a success. 

We always charge for our services.   As charitable as we would like to be, we must feed our families, therefore as much as we would like to, we cannot "donate" our services, or play at no charge for "marketing" or "networking" purposes.

 We MAY occasionally be able to learn a specific song for your event for an additional fee with adequate (several months)notice. Please see the songlist on this site for the most up to data and accurate list of songs we perform.

 Adequate power is essential for our performance.  Our agent will provide you with additional details regarding power requirements during the booking process.

 Adequate space.  We do have an enormous amount of equipment which requires adequate space for us to perform.  We do require a floor, concrete or a stage (we do not set up on the grass, in the dirt or in the sand).  Our agent will provide you with stage requirement during the booking process.

 Outside events.  We do require that you have a covered area available for the band in the event of rain if you are planning an outside event.  This is a nonnegotiable.  We reserve the right to refuse to set up in the event of poor weather, forecasted rain or when WE feel weather conditions are questionable if adequate shelter is not provided.  So please ensure you have a alternate location available for the band.

 The Stars band has performed for thousands  of weddings and corporate parties.  We look forward to making your next event a success.  Feel free to contact us at info@thestarsband.com if we can be of any assistance.  For booking and rates and availability, please contact guy@thestarsband.com.
