Performance tip
Keep the story verses moving and make the names and scenes clear. The title line is the release, so let the room answer instead of singing over them.
Should you sing it?
Sing “The Boys Are Back in Town” when the goal is to lift the mood and get people involved. The performance is easier to believe when the familiar section gives you support instead of extra pressure. Save it for another night if movement and audience participation feel uncomfortable.
