Perfection

Dave graced us with his presence for my 40th birthday party and set the mood for the entire afternoon. We had originally only booked him for an hour, but after 2 songs, my friend walked over and extended him for an additional hour and a half. We had a great time, I think he had a great time and if given the opportunity we would love to work together again. Thank you for making the day exponentially better.

Hey! Thanks so much for having me out on what was an amazing party by the pool! I definitely enjoyed it and happy you did as well! Crazy how small of a world it can be after finding out that you fine people were at Brownwood Paddock Square in the Villages for the 25th Anniversary show when I was performing with Rocky and the Rollers before you even knew I was with that band! :) Look forward to working with you again! Always a pleasure!
