I've seen folks give (or shout) requests to a performer, and I've done it myself (usually via a written note) without thinking about whether the performer knows the song. The Delta Strummers have approx 120 songs in our portfolio from a variety of genres. Yesterday, after I sang my solo to close out the concert, a lady in the front row whispered "a request" in my ear. It was a Hawaiian song I didn't recognize.
I have a number of "fake books" containing thousands of songs, from my days learning to play the keyboard. I also have a number of "song books" for ukulele, also containing thousands of songs. But I'm wondering how performers normally deal with random requests outside their portfolio ???
