#107 Don’t Play That Funky Music
I play in a wedding band in Utah. The biggest bridezilla moment for me was when we got the request at the beginning of the party to NOT play any music by James Brown. We played a funk set that transitioned from one song to the next, but the last song of the set was “Cold Sweat.” Our bass player/leader forgot to tell a few members of the band that we were cutting “Cold Sweat.”
We couldn’t have known how huge of a mistake that was. Almost as soon as the band played the song, the majority of the wedding party starts booing the band, and the bride rushes up to us and starts screaming until she is red in the face. No explanation was given as to why she didn’t want James Brown played, but it was odd to say the least.
