The old When in Rome rule, I suppose.

You wouldn't play Give Ireland Back To The Irish at an Ulster Protestant do, Never On Sunday at a Jewish one, or Zorba The Greek at a Turkish one.

Apart from that, playing the Pet Shop Boys at any wedding reception is probably just asking for trouble. Wink

Unless, perhaps, it's a gay wedding!

Mind you, I've always liked the PSB's music.

I e-mailed this story to a friend at the Classic Rock Society, and he said this was like the typical response at a CRS do when a country record comes on!
