Speaking as a singer (not bad) and a musician (bad!), I must say I prefer singing bands to music-only bands. I don't dance (and who does, in a folk club?), but I like to sing along. This is the big difference: at a concert you can join in a chorus, or even a whole song, but you can't whip out a whistle and join in a tune.

Its great to hear and see real musical talent: great to listen to well-played tunes and great to watch those magical fingers whizzing about. But throw in a few join-inable songs too.
