CLIENT TESTIMONIALS


"
Jacki and I just want to thank you guys again for doing such an awesome job at our wedding. From the starting lineups (which people loved) all the way until Faithfully, you were amazing!!  I was sweating so much from dancing all night my tux was drenched, and it's because we loved your music so much.  We especially appreciated you learning all those songs before our wedding, and you played them great.  I was so impressed at how much you sounded like the original bands----Take on Me, Come On Eileen, Your Love, Don't Stop Believin'----those were incredible (and the first time I've heard you play them).  Most importantly, you kept the crowd dancing until the very end.  Hava Nagila was also perfect.  Not too long or short---just right.  We were having so much fun it seems like a blur.  All of our friends were raving about you guys. They're still talking about it 3 days later. Albert Weisbrot (the guest singer) said you are the best wedding band he's ever heard (and he's been to a TON of weddings).  Thank you for being so easygoing and able to make our wedding exactly the way we wanted it.  I had the most fun night of my life, and my only regret is that we couldn't rock out for another hour.  Jacki and I seriously wish we could do our wedding party all over again because it was so fun and went so fast.
   We LOVED the pictures on your website, and I've told everybody at the wedding to check them out.  Thanks for getting the pics up so quickly--we could hardly wait to see them.   Thanks again for everything. Without your band, the wedding wouldn't have been nearly the same.  You guys should feel really good about bringing so much joy and fun to people's lives.

"Just want to say “THANK YOU” for the excellent job you guys did at Matt and Michelle’s wedding reception. From our very first contact several months ago through the end of the reception you were all professional, courteous and helpful. We first found out about your band on your web site and really liked your diversified play list and when you started playing at the reception my first thought was that “these guys are really good.”  As the night went on you only got better. I had no idea that you were such a quality act and it was nice to hear so many compliments on your band….Matt and Michelle had the time of their lives!  Your music sounds so much better live than on your web site. If I ever have a chance to recommend 56 DAZE to anyone I will do so. You’ve got to be Toledo’s best kept secret!   Thanks again."

"We wanted to thank you for putting on a fantastic show at our wedding a few weeks ago!  You did an excellent job MC-ing the dinner and first dances as well.  You guys got everyone on the dance floor and kept the party going all night long, it’s a shame the night had to end! The entire crowd, young and old had nothing but great things to say about your style and song selection.  Thanks for putting up all of the pictures on the website, it’s great to see so many smiling faces!  Thanks again, we look forward to hearing you in the future

"AWESOME, Very Professional, & Top of the Line - Describes your work at my daughter's wedding.  Everyone enjoyed - I  mean EVERYONE, enjoyed the band and stated that you were the best band they have ever heard at a wedding.  It was packed on the dance floor from the beginning to the end and was even more packed as the night went on!"

"Had a great time at the Firemen's Ball and looking forward to having you guys back next year. This was by far the best dance that they have had due to your entertainment. Throughout the night guests kept telling my husband (Northville Firefighter) what a great band you guys were. See ya next year!!! P.S. Thanks for posting all those pics.

I did not get a chance to say thank you and what a great job that you all did on New Years Eve 2008 at Meshingomesia Country Club.  What a professional experience that we had with your group.  Your selection of music was spot on for the entire evening and I feel like our membership had the best time they could possibly have.  The sound, performance, interaction with the crowd was just awesome.  We look forward to working with 56 Daze again in the future.  We will always remember New Years Eve at Meshingomesia Country Club thanks to all of you."

"You guys MADE our wedding.  I cannot tell you how many compliments we've gotten on your performance.  Guests have continually commented that you 'kept us on our feet from the first chords to the last of the encores', and I've heard a number of people recount the packed dance floor chanting 'ONE MORE SONG' as the clock struck 1:30 in the morning.  Seeing my husband interpretive dance to the 'Eye of the Tiger', and then do the Dirty Dancing lift sequence with my younger brother was priceless... but seeing my mother on stage with you guys, playing the tambourine song after song, was the highlight of my night.  I will continue to tell anyone who's looking for a band to play their wedding or event anywhere near Northern Ohio that the search is over- you guys (56DAZE) are it!"

If you want a great band to get the crowd dancing choose 56 Daze! We were a little nervous booking them because we had never seen them perform live. We just read all of the great reviews and got in touch w/ a couple of past clients. Everything was true--they were great to work with, our guests loved them, and everyone danced the whole night! They really made our wedding memorable!!"

The guys of 56 Daze rocked the square last night here in downtown Lima!  We host many bands throughout the summer season and they were one of the crowd favorites.  I am looking forward to having them back again next year for our “Rally in the Square” season, held every Friday night. What a great mix of music!  Thanks"

"Hilary and I want to express our sincere appreciation and thanks for your incredible performance at our reception.  As any couple planning a wedding, we were faced with the decision of hiring a band or a dj.  We wanted to have a variety of songs, but we also wanted our wedding to be a special experience for everyone.  You guys made it that special experience.  Our reception was absolutely perfect -- you guys played songs that kept everyone dancing, from parents/grandparents and little kids, to our friends.  I don't know how you do it, but everyone, regardless of age, just loved the music!  During the reception, everyone I talked to complimented you guys.  Since the reception, everyone I talk to about the wedding knows about you guys. 
  We also were very impressed with how stress free you made the process leading up to the wedding.  This winter/spring we had a graduation, bar exam, and teacher certification exams on top of planning the wedding -- everything was just crazy.  You guys kept in touch, always responded to our questions the same day, and made the whole thing an enjoyable experience.  We will recommend your band in the future without hesitation!
   Special thanks to you and the guys, and especially Scott, for letting me sit in on the drums."

Tony, you and the guys did an incredible job with our annual Corporate
Holiday Party.  You were able to read the crowd and react
accordingly.  Your interaction with our employees kept the party going all
night long, and the dance floor was never empty.  I was told to make sure
that I had an exceptional band for the party.  You made the night
exceptional and everyone very happy.  I am so glad to see that 56DAZE has
the ability to be diverse by being a great bar band, but kicking up the
level of professionalism when needed to be a crowd pleaser for the
Corporate set too.  You offered a reasonable price for the service offered,
a great look and sound, and even had the band members dressed appropriately
in the ties and vests for our semi-formal event.  When we get to setting
the budget and date for next year's event, I am sure you'll be the first
call I make.  Thanks again!"

"We are happy to take this opportunity to recommend 56 Daze.  As many couples experience, finding qualified musicians with reasonable prices who are dependent can be difficult.  With 56 Daze, we felt comfortable from the very beginning.  Tony and 56 Daze went above and beyond to make our wedding reception a fun and memorable night.  We truly appreciate the time and preparation 56 Daze put into ensuring our reception went off without a hitch.  We are still receiving compliments from our guests about 56 Daze.  We would strongly recommend 56 Daze to any couple that is looking for a band that will play a variety of songs and ensure the guests are having a great time."

"Overall, 56 Daze is awesome! The dance floor was packed the entire night at my wedding reception! They can sing any song and they are so accommodating. Tony MC'd my entire wedding reception which was great! We spoke on the phone a week before the wedding to make sure we had everything planned out. My family & friends are still talking about how great the band was! This is a great band to hire for any type of occasion! They are worth every cent!"

"OMG!  You guys are the BEST!  Julie and Troy's wedding was a blast and I can't thank you enough!  The end of the night was really something else!  THANK YOU for everything.  I can't wait to get to our family picnic tomorrow to see everyone again and hear how much fun you all made it be for everyone!  The band sets the tone, and you guys did it right all the way!  I hated to see the night end!"

"I am writing this note to reccomend 56DAZE for your wedding or event.  We hired the guys for my daughters wedding on May 28, 2006.  Everything from the booking to the follow-up afterwards was done in a professional manner.  I felt our needs were met at all ends.  Some of our issues were - a mixed faith wedding.  The band learned songs to make everyone happy.  The Maste of Ceremonies helped the wedding events flow easily.  And it you look at the "Bobbarazzi" pictures of any wedding they have done - you know everyone has fun.  that was my daughtersgoal for her wedding, to have a great party, and 56DAZE helped us to achieve this. 
P.S.- My husband was a member of a band years ago and keeps up his guitar skills.  Well, he was invited to play along with the band and it truly made my daughters wedding that much more special!"

"Thanks for taking care of our employee Christmas Party at COSI on December 16th.  It looks like we had about 400 of our employees and family at the venue.  The postive feedback to all of the management in the company prior to the event and after the show has been excellent.  The selections were perfect for all ages.
I found out later that besides myself, we had many of our regular employees that have followed you and your band when you play locally."

"As a night club that has a reputation as one of the best live-entertainment venues in Northwest Ohio for the past 15 years, I was very happy with this band. (56DAZE)
They were professional, played to the crowd and had a very diverse selection of music that tailored to my audience.
I would highly suggest them to anyone that wants quality entertainment with a fun atmosphere."
