I wrote you a thank you note to mail and then realized I didn't have your mailing address. I hope you don't mind my thanking you by email. I should have written sooner to let you know how pleased we were with your performance. I can't thank you enough for coming to Charleston to play for Ann and Hamilton's wedding. Everyone loved your music and had a blast dancing. We had heard you were one of the best bands in the Carolinas and now we know for sure that's a true statement. I was sorry I didn't get to spend more time talking to you. I hope your dressing accommodations were ok, and you got plenty to eat. I was sorry you had to perform in such a small space, but you seemed to manage very well. We will certainly give you a good recommendation if we're asked about the band. Thank you again for coming to play for us and making Ann and Hamilton's wedding such a fun and special event. They loved the music you selected to play. We hope you had a good trip home and enjoyed your trip to Charleston. Sincerely, Mary Agnes Seabrook

Both The Kays and John Holenko were great! The Kays were a hit outside by the pool and were very easy to work with. They did a great job involving the crowd and played at just the right volume. The guitarist, John Holenko, added great atmosphere to the upstairs room, but I feel he didn't get the attention he deserved. The room was very full at the beginning of the party, but then had only a few folks in it the rest of the night. He did a great job and was a pleasure to work with.

Subject: thanks to the Kays!

Hi Tony,

I just wanted to throw you an email saying thank you to everyone who got the party started and kept it there the entire night! Geoff and I had a blast dancing away but I think that I had the most fun dancing in my wedding dress with all our friends and family. My sister Shannon had a wonderful time serenading the crowd (and our mom SALLY) with her Mariah Carey-ish rendition of Mustang Sally. Please give all the guys a thank you from Geoff and me for providing great entertainment the whole evening, especially when the party went to a grinding halt with the wedding crashers!! Ha. Once again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Sincerely,

Holly and Geoff Graue

Hi Tony, Hope your holidays were great and hope you have a happy 2004! I wanted to send you the link to our wedding photos... there are a couple of great pictures of the band performing and I thought you may would like to check them out. Thanks again for the great job you all did, we are still getting compliments on how much fun the Kay's made the night.

Hi Tony, I don’t know if you remember me…I was the bride for the Smith/Harris wedding in Raleigh this past June 14^th. I have just gotten finished writing my thank you cards and wanted to extend my sincerest thanks to you and the Kays band for such a memorable evening. It’s so funny…as I sit here writing this note, I get a bit choked up from just how special you all made that evening. Our friends and family could not have asked for a better party…and you went far beyond the call of duty in staying late and letting the wedding party “take over the stage” (myself included)!!  I think the greatest gift you gave my family was allowing my father to sing our first song and jam with you all the rest of the evening. My brother and I have never truly gotten the opportunity to see Dad perform, and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect time. Moreover, besides giving away his only daughter, you made that evening unforgettable for Dad. The stage is what he LOVES and I know you brought back lots of great memories for him. Please let us know whenever you are in the Raleigh area…Jay and I would love to come see you all again and I know my parents would make the short trip down from Roanoke as well. Take care and again…many, many thanks!!

Thank you for a great performance on Saturday night. We enjoyed the band - sorry that our CEO didn't want to end at midnight! I suppose that is a GOOD thing. Your group was exactly what we wanted for the event. I am listening to the CD's you made for me today to keep me in the party spirit. I will happily burn a copy for you if you could use it again.

THANKS TONY ! WE HAD THE BEST PARTY EVER WITH YOUR HELP!!!! THE PHONE CALLS THE FOLLOWING WEEK, COULD NOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT HOW GREAT THE MUSIC WAS!!!! THANKS AGAIN TO YOU AND THE GUYS. REGARDS, MARK CRUMPLER

Thanks so much, Tony! It was wonderful working w/you guys as well and hope to do it again really soon. You guys are absolutely top notch!!

Tony, I told Rick Stowe, East Coast Entertainment, you all were the best band I had ever worked with. You were super. I will definitely refer you to all of my brides.
