All of the bands that I have dealt with in my 40 years in the NYC multible room catering operations has been 20 minutes playing 10 minute break. That includes Terrace on the Park, Huntington Town House, Leonards of Great Neck and all the rest. And unlimited music meant, one member of band (piano,accordian playing all the time).
Why not have host or hostess include the band in their guest count. Its not us that dont want to feed them, Its the patron that does not want to pay us even at a reduced rate to feed them. The band is not our employee nor our responsability they are that of the host of function.
