Ideas for Functions and Events
As an Event Coordinator, we know that it is sometimes challenging to come up with something that is going to appeal to your members.
Cover Notes - does more than perform music for people to listen and dance to. In this information sheet, we have listed a number of things that we do based around our music that you might be interested in. If so, don't hesitate to call me to discuss your ideas. We can tailor any of these activities to suit your requirements.

Music Trivia Night
This format will appeal to those gatherings that prefer a high amount of interaction with the band, and also with other participants at each table. The music of the band will be interspersed with trivia and questions associated with the music being played.
Games and Quiz Night
This format will appeal to those gatherings that prefer a high amount of interaction with the band, with other participants at each table, and some physical
activities. The music of the band will be interspersed with trivia questions associated with the music being played (as exampled above), and a range of party
games and activities.
Requests ("You call the shots") Night
This format will appeal to those gatherings that wish to compile their own set list for the band to play, ensuring a higher level of musical relevance to the audience. This would suit a venue where the members know it's a request night and they give us songs in advance - that way we are playing the material you want to hear. Where there are insufficient songs requested, the band will have backup songs ready.
Cover Notes Jukebox
In this gig format, the audience chooses from our song repertoire, so the band becomes the "jukebox", ensuring a higher level of musical relevance to the audience. If the audience is has not supplied enough songs, we could have some of our own on standby to fill in the gaps.
Dance Night
This format will appeal to those gatherings that prefer a night of dancing.
Grandparents and Grandkids
Grandparents like spending time with their grandkids and like seeing their grandkids having fun. This format will appeal to our clients that are at grandparent age. Cover Notes could assist this by promoting a grandkids day where the venue members can invite their grandkids along. We could throw in some games and activities which are grandkid-friendly, as well as playing some special music that children between the ages of 5 and 13 like.
Bingo Night
Pensioners and retirees like playing BINGO (don't they?). The playing of BINGO games will be interspersed with music of the band.
Theme or Special Event Nights
This format is aimed at increasing the ideas for venues to engage the band by offering some ideas of themed events, such as: Christmas - playing Christmas music; Australia Day; St Patricks Day; Valentine's Day; Mothers Day; Anzac Day.
Fancy Dress Night
This format is aimed at increasing the ideas for venues to engage the band by offering some ideas of themed events, such as: Hawaiian; Rock'n'roll; colours.
