Band

$$Bands are a new feature in The Sims 3: Late Night expansion pack. Players can create bands, invite/kick out members , hold practice sessions and perform at concerts. New musical instruments and skills (bass skill, drum skill and piano skill) are added as well. This feature is greatly expanded from The Sims 2: University, which allows Sims to play instruments together, but didn't offer any band structure or any "gigs" to play at.

Gigs come as opportunities and a band will need to check the newspaper or talk to people to check where the good places to play are.

If a sim in a band is having a conversation with another band member, there will be an option to change the name of their band or to kick the other sim out of the band. During a performance, band members can attempt to "make a sweet move".
