ROR steel drum band


Recommended Posts

We play a cd and had our music on ipod if the cd didnt play..... The cd player was really loud and could hear the music upstairs in my suite above the gazebo as i was getting ready......you can also here it the music at the pool bar that is about 50 or so paces from the gazebo. Save the money and spend on flowers or your bridal hair style or a massage or something..... i just think the band is good but not worth that charge for the amount of time you need them for....

ANy ideas or has anyone had any experience with this?
Chandlyn controls the CD player herself-well at least she did at my wedding. Just have all of the songs that you are using on 1 CD, in the order that you want them & she will play the songs accordingly.

I have been e-mailing with Minsky who is on this board, although I don't know what his name is on here (check the noob section!!! - I am totally disorganized!!!!)

Here is his Wedding Sample on YouTube:

You can also listen to an audio sample at (click on "Soca My Heart"):
MySpace.com - TONE-EAST MUSIC - Toluca Lake, California - Gospel / Pop / Other - www.myspace.com/toneeastmusic

He said that he charges a flat performance fee, but not travel and lodging fees. He is really quick to respond and a really good deal, plus he is a great musician! I plan on meeting with him and speaking more with him (he is in my area), so I would talk to him. I will try to find his name on here!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
