No, not wenslydale or stinking bishop.

We seem to be picking up lots of wedding/function/dinner dance stuff at the mo, trouble is we aren't that sort band really. About 60% of our set is fine but the rest of it really is too heavy and leftfield (qotsa, vaccines, black sabbath!)
I need about 10 songs that are really quick to learn and will go down well at these things but don't require to sacrifice my soul so no sweet child or summer of 69 or sweet home frikkin alabama!

I think you may be painting yourself into a corner... My lot are trying to get more function stuff but when it comes to setlist time they want to play more indie than super-popular stuff, which doesn't keep the average listener amused all night.

Off top of my head;

Bohemian Like You
Livin' on a Prayer
Sex on Fire
Twist & Shout
Last Nite
Chelsea Dagger (bleh)

Just punctuate the 60% of your set with Sex On Fire, the punters will lap it up.

Man up play the crap charge an extra grand and smile sweetly

[dogload]

You need Wonderful Tonight and Lady In Red in your set for the smoochy bits.
Oh, and Love Is All Around for weddings (and a funeral).
