Subject: Thank You

Hi John, This is Lena. I just wanted to thank you for a FANTASTIC wedding (June 4th at the Crescent). We had a great time as did all of our guests. People have been calling and asking for your number- which we gladly give out!
EVERYONE at the party commented on how wonderful the band was, most saying it was the best band they ever heard!

All Chris and I wanted for our wedding was for all of our guests and ourselves, to have a great time, dance, laugh, and have fun. Because of you guys, our night was a HUGE success!!
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!! We'll definately be in touch for upcoming events- we're racking our brains to come up with reasons for a party so we can have you guys play!!
Take Care!

Lena

 


 

Hi -

We finally received our wedding video over the weekend and we would like to say you guys were the best!! We got a chance to hear the music in full and hear how great you are. You sang our wedding song perfectly. We thank you very much for making our wedding perfect.

Jennifer and Craig

 

 


 

 

 

Hello John,

Its our two year anniversary and we wanted to say hello. We just wanted to let you know you are still thought of and we think you are the best. Everyone talked on how great your band is for weeks. If it wasn't for how great you were, the cake falling would have been a disaster.

I hope all is well for you. I am so glad I insisted on getting a band. I cannot express how much you made our day special. We liked you from the moment we met you. Thank you for the hospitality at your home and the cd you made us. Everyone loved their favor. If there is anything you need feel free to call. We will rant and rave to anyone about Current affair.

Eternally gratefull, Kittzie and Ralph

 


 


John,

Jeff and I would like to thank you for such a wonderful evening on March 5. The band was phenomenal and we have gotten so many compliments and inquiries about Current Affair. We have gladly passed your information on to several people and also found out you are playing at a wedding for the son of one of the guests who was at ours. I guess he called his son that night to tell him what a great band he had booked. Thank you again. I've never been to a wedding before where the band keeps the guests on the dance floor all night.

Sincerely, Amy Martin

Hi, my name is Patrick. Current Affair played at my wedding on March 5,1999 at the Chateau Briand on Long Island. You guys were great.I may have a couple who may be getting married, so I was wondering if you guys are playing anywhere, or at any showcases?
I would like to come see you guys again, and maybe I can bring some friends to a showcase ? I hope all is well with you guys, and once again you guys are the best band ever!!

Yours Truly
Patrick

Dear John -

I didn't want to wait any longer to write a formal letter. I really wanted to pass on from myself, Leon, and so many people at our Holiday Party our compliments on the quality of music performed by The Current Affair. As you know, Leon consistently requested that you keep it mellow, and considering the very business like atmosphere of the party, it was appropriate to do so. He was extremely happy with the service you provided. The Current Affair were absolutely the best choice we could have made. So many people have commented on the quality of your music even though you really weren't able to "show your stuff", as I had seen at a recent wedding. I adore your singers and the fact that each of you are multi-talented is awesome. I will definitely recommend you to anyone who needs live music. I certainly hope you made some contacts at our function because so many people loved the music.

Thank you again for being so flexible and for providing the absolutely perfect music ensemble we could have asked for at our party. Happy holidays and hopes for a very successful new year to The Current Affair.

SIncerely,
Jen

Try A Current Affair... (Howard Beach) acurrentaffairmusic.com. They can play anything, they are absolutly amazing. Several of my cousins booked them and they were great everytime. I booked them for mine too! Good Luck :)

 


 

John,

I just wanted to say thank you for doing an amazing job that night! You guys were outstanding and everyone is still talking about "the band." We knew A Current Affair was such a great band - but you all really outdid yourselves this time! Thanks again. You made the night unforgetable!

Marisa and Charles

Hi John:

It's been almost 5 years since Current Affair played at our wedding on October 24th, 1998. To this day I still can't get over how GREAT the band was. We've been to so many weddings before and after ours and your band was by far the best band we've EVER heard at a wedding. The weddings have slowed down for us quite a bit over the past few years, but whenever another one comes around we always recommend your band and pray that we get to see you again! We would love to be guests at an affair where Current Affair is performing to be able to enjoy it like all of our guests did at our wedding. I can't tell you how many comments people had after our wedding about how great the music was. I have to admit, we lucked out that your band was available in the short notice that we gave you (our engagement was less than a year and most good bands book up years in advance). I remember how discouraged we were getting when we started looking at bands, and all I have to say is thank G-d my friend Bethe recommended your band (she was blown away by you guys at a wedding that she had attended).

I just recently realized that you had this website - Michael happened to be playing the music over the computer the other night, and when I heard it from the other room I came running in - I was so excited to hear it. Needless to say I've listened to all of the clips on the website. I can't tell you how many times after our wedding we continued to play the demo tape that you sent to us before booking you (I'm surprised it's still in one piece).

There are a handful of songs that I hear on the radio that immediately make me smile and think of you.

I hope that you are all doing well.

Thanks again for making our wedding day such a wonderful experience. It wouldn't have been the same without you there!

Sincerely,
Caryn (and Michael)

Hello John,
This is Gina from June 7's wedding at Russo's! I just want to tell you how many wonderful comments we have gotten about your band!!! You guys are the best there is by far!! The music was perfect!!! I am so glad we chose you!!! I was wondering if you record your parties at all because we would love to have a duplicate of the day's music!! I probably should have thought of this before the actual day... Well, again and again THANK YOU!!!! Please let the band know how happy we were and still are with the energy and the talent they shared with our families and friends.
Have a nice day.

Gina and Joe

Hi, how are you? You just played at my brothers wedding on Sunday, June 8th, at the chanticlair in Short Hills NJ. Let me start by saying I have never.... had such an amazing time at a wedding before, and it is all owed to you and your band. You are turly amazing! I just got engaged , the day after my brothers wedding:*)- and am planning to get married July, 2004. One requirement is having your band play at my wedding, because if not I know it will not be my "dream wedding". I do know that you are very busy this time of year, but if you can please find time in your hectic schedule to call me so I can discuss booking you I would greatly appreciate it!

Sincerely,
"Bride to Be"
Christine

Dear John and "The Band",

We just wanted to thank you so much for the absolutely FANTASTIC job at our Wedding. Our guests are still talkng about "The Band". I have given your telephone number to so many people, I feel like I should be working for Current Affair! I hope our recommendations work out for "The Band" and you will always be our choice for all of our affairs... there is no need to look anywhere else. Although there are many little things we will remember about that night... we will never forget the music, especially our wedding song!

Thanks again,
Paullete and Seth

They blew me away. Totally exceeded all my expectations. I am convinced that this band can sing ANYTHING and not mangle a single song. They did everything from Classic Dance (Sinatra, Dean Martin), to Classic Rock (Beatles), to standard wedding (Hot, Hot, Hot) and even an Italian duet that was SPECTACULAR.
The dance floor was never empty except for when people were seated to eat.
People are still raving about them to my parents, to me, to my in-laws, and to the groom. They were fabulous. I had no contact with John, the bandleader except for once, between when I saw them at a corporate function and on the day of the wedding. Every time I changed the format of the music, I would simply send him and e-mail. He always responded within a day.
I spoke to him 4 days before the wedding to confirm everything I wanted. It couldn't have been any easier. A STELLAR PERFORMANCE! YOU ABSOLUTELY CANNOT GO WRONG WITH THIS BAND

 


Dear Current Affair,

First I want to say that we are so happy that we choose you to be our band! All everyone kept saying was that band was the best band they ever heard!! I had a few friends that said "I wish I would have called them for my wedding"!! You made our day so special and everyone loved you guys! I still get comments about you guys and it is 1 year later!! Thanks for playing the best music ever and being part of our special day!! You are the best band ever! Every wedding I go to and my friends go to say no band can compare to Current Affair!! Thanks again!!

Love Adam and Kim

Hi John - every one is still talking about how great the band was on Thursday - you guys really gave a great performance. I have never seen as many people dance for such a long time. Thank you - everything I heard about you was absolutely true!!!! And, thank you for making me keep the brass section in - it made a difference. Can you pencil me in for next year. I am not sure where it will be yet but I would like you to be there with us - thanks again.

Kathy

Hi John,
We just got back from our honeymoon this past Monday. We wanted to express our gratitude for the OUTSTANDING job your band did at our wedding on September 28th at the Bridgeview Yacht Club. Richie and I have been inundated with telephone calls and emails from friends and family alike complimenting the music. Not only did everyone dance the day away, but the personal touch the band used was also noted by all! The music truly
made it a family affair which is rare at any event. Current Affair is truly the best band we have heard! It was a pleasure working with you also, and we will be in touch for any future events!!
Thank you again!

Richie and Margaret

Its been a long time
Date: 5/22/2002 3:45:15 PM Eastern Standard Time

John and Crew,
Hi John how are you? It has been over a year since you played at our wedding and we know that this letter is long over due.
Let us begin with the fact that people are still talking about our wedding and about how fabulous you were. From the moment we signed the contract until the very last song was played you made us feel so special. You took the time to learn our wedding song and a song that my husband dedicated to me. You really showed how much time and effort you take to make your performances absolutely outstanding. We will never forget the standing ovation that Brenda received when she sang a ballad by Bocelli during one of the courses. We have never seen anything like that at a Wedding before. When we look back on that special day we know that Current Affair will always be one of our greatest memories. You made our Wedding an unforgettable event and we are truly grateful.
We actually will be seeing you in July at the Goldfarb/Hansen wedding. The bride is a very good friend of mine and was at my wedding. She contacted me right away for your phone number and I'm so glad that you were available. Once again thank you for making our Wedding day everything that we could have hoped for.
Best Wishes Always,

Jessica & Steve
