Fire House Polka Band We
just lost Norm the tuba player and founder of Fire House Polka Band D
Norm Burbank – 1947-2007 The
best in the business! Our
smaller group 3-4 piece is made up of three bandleaders getting together as
one to offer you the best sound possible! |
Toll Free: 1-800-308-7616 We, the
musicians know how to run dances. We have been playing these kinds of
affairs for years. Experienced in all forms of music, our
band leaders and musicians can help you select the right combo or ensemble that
will be perfect for you. We are
still looking for qualified musicians that know the tunes and can
"fake" (play without music!). It is not the amount of
years that one has played, how high one can play, or the amount of chops one
has. My friend
tells me all the time, "Some guys do not have a clue how to play in
public." My question to you is: "Do have a clue and are you
qualified?" If so, write us today. You can
join us that know what we are doing when it comes to entertaining the
public. We do not want all the work, we want to share it with other
fine musicians and they too can share their experience. So many
calls came in this past fall we did not have enough musicians to cover all
those that requested a live band at a dance or festival. Photos and
some sample recordings can help promote you! I have software that
can transpose form WMA to MP3 and etc. Send me an
attachment with a sample.

Contracted
dates will be in writing. I am sorry, a few people still insist on
working without contracts. It is not a normal practice to work without
documentation. Payments for the services rendered, must be guaranteed
to the band leader or musicians, before one plays the engagement. For
last minute calls, we can take a deposit by debit or credit card. A fax
can be sent to you in lieu of contract. An invoice can be faxed ahead
of time to avoid delays.
Once contracts are sent, we expect them to be returned as soon as possible to ensure your commitment. We cannot have one "hold" or tie up dates with other calls coming in. Most of us give courtesy envelopes for you to send the contract back to us in a timely manner. I myself
send a: contract, invoice and W-9.
Place
all three in a “courtesy” envelope and you get paid faster! Erik
