He'd probably have to come up with a more wedding-like band name like "Silver Bells" or "Death Do Us Part."

50K for a wedding band? Navy Pier? Formal wear only? Will cover the hotel? Who is this?

I think we should get a board band together. We could call ourselves The Chairmen of The Board which will also provide a good segue for some Rat Pack tunes which are always a delight at weddings. I have never played a guitar with a suit on.

I have. Its actually incredibly challenging. Remember that next time you see Elvis Costello.

I'd be all in for this as well. Bass, some guitar, and i dabble a little bit with the harmonica.
