Hi Dennis,

Are you going to take all 15 fake books to the gig? If so good luck.

FWIW- This is what I would do. In fact this what we did in our wedding band. First know your audience. Are you going to play bar gigs? Weddings? Both? Chirstmas parties or retirement parties?

Once you define your audiences pick out around 100 or so songs that they would like then pick your BiaB styles for those songs and learn the songs. When a request comes in that you don’t have state that you will learn that one for the next gig. Then do it. You will build up a working repertoire this way.

Like I said that is how we did it, except we did not use BiaB. We used humans so a couple of appropriate fake books did the job for us.


I want my last spoken words to be "I hid a million dollars under the........................"

64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
