Adagio for Strings--what a joyous occasion this will be!
A little hard to find the beat, but they'll all be crying anyway.

I thought all those songs were on EVERY band's song lists.
Carter D10 8p/7k, Dekley S10 3p/4k C6 setup, Regal RD40 Dobro, Recording King Professional Dobro, NV400, NV112, Ibanez Gio guitar, Epiphone SG Special (open G slide and regular G tuning guitar) .

Playing for 55 years and still counting.

Such a beautiful piece. Of course, it gets ruined when you have to suffer through a Liberty Mutual ad first.

I'm betting that after reading that, the band opened with Paycheck's "Take This Job And Shove It" and then called it a night.
Many play better than I do. Nobody has more fun.

I've seen an expanded version of this that goes into payment, etc.
"We are sorry that we will not be able to pay your $200 fee on the day of the wedding because we had to give the DJ his $2000 up front. Our daughter assures us that this will not be a problem because your love of music is greater than your need for money."

OMG. Maybe you could play the theme from Benny Hill as an opener.
