We had Blast to the Past Band perform for our parent's 50th wedding anniversary, and they did not disappoint. A great addition to our backyard party, with all the classic oldies and perfect for dancing! We would highly recommend them for your next event.

We had three musical events at the 2018 Missouri State RV Rally held in Sedalia MO, Sept 27-29, 2018. Jerry was everyone's favorite. Jerry was very easy to work with and was the only one of the three groups who actually arrived on time to get set up. He responded to all of our requests and adjusted his set to meet our event needs.

Jerry was amazing! His one man show was complete was costume changes and he sounds exactly like the various singers! I’d highly recommend. It was perfect for a crowd of all ages!

Jerry was wonderful! Communication was great, a pure professional. He was timely and his performance was great! We will be asking him to future events and definitely recommend him! Thank you Jerry you were the highlight of the evening!
Elvis Impersonator
Jerry Armstrong A.K.A Elvis, was 1 1/2s late.
Drove up to house like a maniac. Got out at the event and was rude, loud, disrespectful.
I would not recommend him for your party.
If it wasn't for it being my wife's birthday he would of not performed.
Elvis Impersonator
Response from Blast To The Past Band:
I was upset because 5 minutes before I got there, he told me his wife was going to beat my ass, why would I not be upset, 4th of July accidents everywhere! I apologized before I got there, but his phone call to me got me upset!
