Put on your\ndancing shoes and let ’s make a difference together\, one beat at a\ntime! It would be hard to find a band that has more fun than The\nFunsters. That is why they are st ill entertaining thousands of people\nafter 20+ years of playing together. In this ten-piece band there has\nnot been one personnel change in twelve years. That tells the whole\nstory of the secret of The Funsters’ succe ss. Not only are these\nguys great musicians who share a pride in each oth er’s musical\nabilities\, but they are also friends. This spirit and cam araderie on\nstage is what sets The Funsters apart from other bands offeri ng the\nsame type of musical entertainment. What about the music? Well\, i t can\nbe anything from Frank Sinatra to The Rolling Stones\, The Beatles to\nAl Green. With a three-piece horn section\, four lead vocalists and a\ nguitarist that has toured the world with Joe Cocker\, Scandal and Paul\nY oung (to name a few)\, it is uncommon for any band to match the\nmusical b readth of The Funsters. In fact\, with a song list so vast\,\nthe members find themselves disappointed that they can’t “play\nthem all” at eve ry performance. With this kind of flexibility\, The\nFunsters can customiz e a night of music that will be perfect for any\nevent. The Funsters are i ndeed made up of lifelong friends. Besides a\nset of brothers\, some membe rs have known each other since childhood\nand played together in “first bands” over 30 years ago. Other\nmembers met and played in bands during their college years and have\ncontinued playing together for the last 20-2 5 years. The common roots\nof this band can be traced back first to southe rn Delaware with such\ngroups as “Mr. Softee\,” “Texas\,” and “C olour.” Later\ncombinations led to the University of Delaware\, the Ston e Balloon\, the\nBottle-n-Cork\, and “Jack of Diamonds\,” “Eighth Da y\,” and\n“Kickback.” The Funsters are: Jon Fletcher – trumpet/voc als\, Tom\nHouska – keyboards\, Greg Mack – guitar\, Keith Mack – gu itar\,\nDickie Messick – bass\, Ed Shockley – drums/vocals\, Ken Tonge –\nsax/vocals\, Sherman Ward – vocals\, Grier White – sax/vocals\,\ nMartin LeMaire – sound engineer.The Funsters Benefit Dance Party now\ni ncludes reserved seating for your partying/dancing convenience!
