We want to make you money!

By having great entertainment you will retain your customers through the night. We do not chase your customers away! We entertain them!

People deserve to here great music!

Bluemonday does not cut corners with music. We grew up listening to the same music we play and would never comprise its sound. We own our PA and lighting

system which has become a visual signature of the band. We are able to duplicate the same show from room to room.

Strange but True! In 2003 Jet blue was marketing their "Red Eye 80's" Flights in coordination

with “VH1 Classics” from CA. to NY. Jet blue recognized Blue Monday as a staple 80's tribute band and deemed

them worthy of having their name fly the skies. Our heartfelt appreciation goes

out to "JetBlue" for recognizing us.

BACK TO THE ’80S BLUE MONDAY ADDS KEYBOARD TO ARRANGEMENTS

NORMAN NIGHTS

By Cathy Swiney

July 2006

Taking a formula that worked in Long Island, N.Y., Matt and Lizette Totillo

are bringing to the area ’80s music with a twist.

One distinguishing feature of their band, Blue Monday, is having a keyboard

player, which few other ’80s cover bands have, Lizette says.

“It’s the music selection and the sounds that come out of the keyboard that

authenticate what we’re playing that sets us apart,” she says.

When the couple moved to North Carolina last fall, they brought with them

the band name they had performed with extensively, and spots to fill. By January, Matt, the keyboard

player, and Lizette, the lead singer, had a newly reorganized band that includes Dan Fournier on lead

guitar, Scott Miller on bass guitar and Chad Goins on drums.

Speaking volumes about its talent, the band has scored some big-time venues in a short time. They

recently have played at Food Lion Speed Street and Taste of Charlotte. Those larger gigs are a welcome

change to the Totillos, who mostly performed in smaller bars with transient crowds in New York by

virtue of the crowded band market.

“Here, you’ve got bigger places with people that frequent them often,” Lizette says. “If you catch the

crowd, you’re almost guaranteed they’re going to come back.”

During a show complete with lights and fog, the band rocks the crowd with a favorite, an extended

medley of Chumbawamba songs. Among other songs they play are “Voices Carry” by ’Til Tuesday,

“Jump” by Van Halen, “Kyrie” by Mr. Mister, “Bad” by U2 and “Sweet Child of Mine” by Guns N’ Roses.

“A lot of that music is different from today,” she says. “When people hear it, it brings them back to a

particular moment – what they were doing when they heard that song. People are able to relate to them

or relate them to something.”

Go back in time to great ’80s music with Blue Monday at the Rusty Rudder in Cornelius on July 29. For

It seems that many years ago, bluemonday had a dream of forming an 80’s resurrection band. A band that played all the really cool and fun music of the 1980’s. Songs that made you feel really good from an era where the music smiled, the costumes smiled and so did the performers. The band grew into having one of the most comprehensive retro 80’s song lists out there. The band's motto is, "If it came from the 80's or sounds like the 80's, we will usually play it."
