"Hi Kal, Thank you for your message .... I've been trying to find time to email you since yesterday. It's me who should be thanking you, I knew your band would be good but I didn't realise just how good! I had an image of how the evening would be but imagination rarely lives up to it's promise. However on this occasion it certainly did and that was all down to you. It couldn't have been more perfect. Guests who have called us yesterday and today have all commented on how good you were and people on the night were asking ""where on earth did you find a band as good as this - they were fantastic ?"" I would love Terry and Jan to send me any pics so yes, please let them have my email address. Thank the rest of the band for us and keep on doing what you do; you're a great guy and you make a lot of people very happy! Di x"

Thank you so very much for making our ball a success. Everybody I have spoken to has said the band was fantastic and men dancing that don’t normally dance! It was a great success. I personally enjoyed it and thank you for your help along the way. I was a little worse for wear by then end of the evening and don’t recall saying goodbye but then again there are a few other things I don’t remember either but my husband is taking great pleasure reminding me! I think I was so tightly wound until the band came on and it was clear that everyone was having a great time so any wine a drank beforehand hit me once I relaxed! It has taken me 2 days to recover! Once again thank you and please extend our thanks and appreciation to your band members.

just have to say a really big 'Thank You' to Kal & the rest of the Band Members for your playing in Chesterfield yesterday. I'm from the town originally but moved away over 30yrs ago, however I go 'home' as often as I can to see my Dad. Sadly I wasn't able to get to this years event but am commenting on my Dad's behalf. At 93yrs old the 40's were my dad's 'youth' & he has always held on to the memories & been my inspiration for my lifelong passion for the era. He took himself off to town yesterday & listened to you guys right through to your last number. I chatted with him last night & he was thrilled with his day out, loving the music & reminiscing to the dancing. So I will say Thank You All once again for making my dear old Dad a very Happy Man! you are wonderful musicians and very lovely people. My Best Wishes to you All.
