This show is all about having FUN! We do our best to have a great party, but the reality is, YOU (the audiance) are the most important part to a successful show.
There are a few rules that will make your TAVERNACLE Dueling Piano experience the best it can be.
This is an ALL request piano show. We need your songs to make it a party. Pick good, fun, sing-a-long songs that everyone will enjoy. In order to make your song "suggestion" a "request" a little love goes a long way. (Tips are what turn a "suggestion" into a "request")
You don't have to listen to any song you don't want to! For $1 more than the original request, you can stop any song. (Example... If we are playing "Frozen's Let it Go" and you would rather hear "AC/DC" for $1 more than the "Frozen" request, we'll stop playing it and start playing AC/DC, no questions asked)
Of course a song can always be started back up again for $1 more than the "stoped song"
This is more of a guideline - but we are a BAR... You must be at least 21 to enter. also, a lot of our show contains adult oriented humor, pofanity and cruedness. (you've been warned)
That's about it, so make sure to sing loud, stomp your feet, come ready to party! |

Troy's a veteran
player and has the most guts to try a song he's just heard. He has been singing
since the age of 7, and picked up the piano in his teens. He loves music, and has a natural ability to hear a song and play
it.
Troy studied vocal performance at the University of Utah, and traveled the
world in various shows. He performed for several years at Lagoon (a Utah
amusement park), singing in "Music USA" and has since been playing
and singing in multiple dueling piano shows for the last 16 years.

Jules has been singing and playing the piano since she was a wee young thing, and has no intention of stopping until she dies or her arms fall off--whichever comes first. She began studying classical piano and voice at the age of 6 and graduated with a bachelor's degree in music from Utah Valley University.
She also loves to write music, particularly for film and has sung on such classy soundtracks as Spartacus and Ash Vs the Evil Dead. Jules has a passion for performing and has acted in everything from musical theatre to improv to Shakespeare. Mostly, though, she enjoys having a good time with great people, so the Tavernacle is the perfect place to be! |
