When and where do you need the band? Rats In the Haggis could do it, if it's on a night when we're available. I can ask my bandmates. We're always interested in paying gigs to plump up the CD fund. :) (Plus getting to do a gig that's not a Ren Faire is always refreshing-- although I'm guessing this would be more or less the same kind of material. Heh.)

Do you need five straight hours of playing, or is the evening divided up into sets with breaks? If it's a full five hours straight through you might need to hire two bands to alternate... although we've certainly done longer gigs on accident! (Funny thing-- sometimes you can get caught up in playing and not realize you've been doing it all night, when you were just planning on a two-hour set!) What exactly are you looking for music-wise? Specific dance tunes? Other types of tunes? Songs? A blend of all three? Are you looking for more sedate traditional Medieval music, or is Rats' more raucus style style even what you want? We're not exactly Windam-Hill-harps-and-breathy sopranos. :)

Let me know if you're interested!
