ACTUAL RESPONSE to a PERFORMANCE:
Oh my Gosh Wes...I have heard so many positive comments from people about the band that night. I received 3 phone calls during the party telling me how wonderful everything was. So many nice compliments ! Jules also told me that you agreed to play at our picnic at the end of June. I was so happy to hear that. You have no idea how much I wanted to be at the party.
Thanks for all your efforts in working with us at the club. I'm sure that the word of how fun it was that night is being passed around. Word gets spread to other clubs very fast.

Hi Wes -
Just wanted to get in touch with you (and all the guys) to extend our most humble thanks to all of you for the fantastic evening we had when you were here recently. Everyone down here at the campground absolutely raved about the band. And around here, word spreads fast and I know everyone will remember "Ernie Givens and the White Lies Band" for a long, long time!
You're definitely the best entertainment we have ever had! We're all looking forward to seeing you here again next year. In fact, we're trying to organize an outing for many of us to come out to see you when you play in Ottawa in September.
Again, from Sandy, Mongo, Jill and the whole gang here at Hide Away Lakes - MANY THANKS - YOU GUYS ROCK!
