Man, we would jump at playing the royal wedding if we were asked. Wills and Kate look like nice people. But Harry is the dude. His is the wedding we would most likely play. He knows his music. He keeps it real on his iPod. I'm sure Wills and Kate know what they are doing but Harry would definitely throw a Kings Of Leon-style party."
