| Hellen Mindrup 03.09.2013 | Ask the manager what he expects you to play. Maybe go there on a evening in which you'd be staged and check out the crowd, see what they're playing currently and if people are vibing out to it. If you go there and country is on the jukebox and everyone is loving it, you may want to reconsider. For a set that long at a local bar you're going to be expected to hit every genre of music to keep everyone happy. Playing EDM from 9pm-2am will probably drive people crazy. |
