   Well, you survived! Not only did you avoid getting run over at the buffet, you performed exceptionally well. Thank you for working in a cramped and sometimes crazy environment -- your flexibility, sense of fun and professionalism were greatly appreciated. Ill be sure to let you know when the next Travel Fest is, which will certainly be in a new and bigger location.

.....and one year later........

Dear Rod,

   Thank you for once again doing a terrific job at the Post's Travel Fest. As always, you were the consummate professional. Thanks for all the great work you've done with The Washington Post.

   Chuck and I want to thank you again for making our wedding   reception perfect. All of you put an extra effort into playing for us that evening and we will always remember it. Our pastor talked that day about all of the people who wished us well and I feel very lucky that we met you and that you could play at our reception. Please keep in touch.

   A note of thanks for the wonderful music that you provided for our event last week at the City Club of Washington. Our guest speaker, Mary Matalin, even commented on how lovely the music was during dinner. I look forward to working with you on next year's program.

                                                Best regards,

My wife and I want to express to you how much we enjoyed your music at our daughter's wedding reception, January 9th at the International Club, Washington, DC. The members of your band were excellent and the blend of music perfect for dancing and listening pleasure. You have an excellent voice and a special gift for style and delivery. Our daughter was thrilled and the guests genuinely enjoyed themselves, thanks to your experience in orchestrating such wedding festivities.

                                                Sincerely,
