Wedding Songs Series: 1. Ceremony Background Music 25

Posted on November 20, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

When guests arrive for your wedding ceremony, they should meet a beautiful setting, a pleasant atmosphere, and the right style of wedding background music. These wedding songs are heard before the official start of the ceremony, which is usually keyed by the First Processional, or the parent,s processional.  Of course, AC/DC and The Beastie Boys are probably not what you want to play here, but that doesn’t mean you have to use music that will make your guests fall sleep!

Many couples will use classical music, playing string quartet or trio music from artists such as Bach, Brahams, Mozart, etc. Another way to go would be guitar, piano, or some other solo instrument playing the same. If this is what you have always dreamed of hearing before the start of your wedding, then go for it. Many couples use classical for their ceremony music or have that solo instrument playing classical. These are fine, but in today’s wedding arena, people are finding this is a great place to personalize!

Recently, I heard a string quartet playing love song arrangements of classic rock, Motown and even Adult Contemporart artists like John Mayer.  Of course, they needed to get the sheet music for these songs, but they did so for free, as an investment for their group. There’s also modern pianists, like Steve Siu, who recently put out his versions of modern songs from modern artists like Rihanna, Josh Groban, and even Coldplay! Here in Southern California, we have an electric harpist named Hillary Stagg.  She has some great pre-ceremony music on CD or on iTunes. Another popular artist is Enya. If you feel she is a little dated or overplayed, that’s fine, but she’s

Bonnaroo Music Festival Tickets – Get Ready for the 2010 Fest 1

Posted on July 14, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

Do you love the Tennessee music festival Bonnaroo so much you want to live and breathe the event all year long? Well, thanks to Ben & Jerry’s, the infamous ice cream creative team, now you can. The music rock festival and Ben & Jerry’s have teamed up, according to a press release, to create “Bonnaroo Buzz.” The melt-in-your-mouth flavor blends “light coffee and malt ice creams with whiskey caramel swirls and English toffee pieces.” This way you will be able to get through this year’s June festivities and beyond.

For festival goers, Bonnaroo isn’t just about an oddly named Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavor; it’s about some great music. Encompassing four sunny June days in Manchester, Tenn., the annual event brings hundreds of thousands of hipsters, punks, rockers and more to the grassy knolls of the small country town. With headliners like the Dave Matthews Band, Kings of Leon, Stevie Wonder, Jay-Z, Conan O’Brien, Weezer, Tenacious D and many others, this year’s Bonnaroo will be as tasty as ever. So what are you waiting for? Pick up some <a rel=”nofollow” onclick=”javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview(‘/outgoing/article_exit_link’);” href=”http://www.stubhub.com/bonnaroo-music-festival-tickets/”>Bonnaroo Music Festival tickets</a> from http://www.stubhub.com.

Confirming over 100 acts of the 2010 lineup by way of Twitter and MySpace, Bonnaroo promoters Superfly Productions and A.C. Entertainment cleverly announced the acts involving the entire social media community. Playing with words prior to the reveal, the list was named one act at a time every six minutes in early February while late night set dates have continued to be updated well into the spring. Mixing genres like no other summer festival in history, Bonnaroo includes veteran performers, newbies and international sensations alike throughout the four days of mayhem.

Celebrating its ninth year, the 2010 festival is expected to top last year’s sold out numbers of 80,000 fans, with an even more diverse lineup than 2009’s Beastie Boys, Al Green, Wilco, Merle Haggard, MGMT, Nine Inch Nails, Erykah Badu and Jimmy Buffet. Even with the eccentric lineup, expect some serious impromptu collaborations like in festivals past. Performers are commonly caught jamming with each other throughout the festival event, like last year when Bruce Springsteen bobbed his head along to MGMT while Jenny Lewis jumped onstage for Elvis Costello’s performance.

Much like every other year, the Bonnaroo Festival will be donating a portion of the proceeds to Coffee County organizations (otherwise known as local organizations based in the middle of Tennessee); as indicated by a 2005 census, the effect of Bonnaroo on the area has substantially increased revenue. This year, however, something new has also come on board – the Beard & Mustache Competition.

At Bonnaroo, it’s all about having a really good time, so for 2010’s activities the company thought it would be a great way to showcase the diversity of this festival with a male facial hair competition. The event will give winners VIP tickets to next year’s event while their image will be showcased on the Main Stage screens before Sunday’s closing performance. So if you haven’t picked up your Bonnaroo tickets from StubHub just yet, act now!
