I suggested line-outs from the bassist and the keys, but
they just want a good overall band recording. I was thinking
an X-Y stereo pair over the drums, and a couple of other
strategically placed mics, specifically one for the sax.
Any advice from you pros out there who know better than me?
Is there a PA? What is the PA doing? What is in the PA? What is the room
like? How many channels do you have available?

No real PA. Keys and bassist have small amps, so maybe there won't
be line outs. Vocalist also singing through small amp.
Sort of a high ceiling restaurant/bar. Tile floors? Or perhaps
linoleum.
