cruiseguy1016 Posted July 13, 2022 #6 Share Posted July 13, 2022 The piano players in the Schooner Bar are usually very fun and outgoing. I think they always accept, and sometimes encourage, requests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare twangster Posted July 13, 2022 #10 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Typically Royal provides a list of acceptable music to their artists. Not every request will be honored if the song is not on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
