Vic Paul and Linda Stevens (Duo) September 26, 2009
Hi Steve, I just want to give let you know how well our event (50th anniversary party) went Saturday night.
You recommended Vic Paul and he was great. We also hired a female singer with him and she was terrific.
They played music for every age and we had ALL ages.
From a waltz to an Irish dance to Beyonce.
Everyone asked where we got them.
I told them I called you and explained the type of event and what we wanted and you recommended them.
We had a great time.
Thank you for making our parents special day one we all will never forget!

This letter is from a Corporate Party at the Andover Country Club
PERSONNEL VIC PAUL: keyboards / vocals BRUCE GAUTHIER: tenor sax / keyboards / vocals LINDA STEVENS: vocalist MIKE LIVINGSTON: guitar / vocals ART MAASER: trumpet Our retirement party for our President and CEO was held last Friday evening at the Andover Country Club and we had engaged The Vic Paul Express through you to provide the music. We wanted to pass along to you that they were incredible. Everyone is still talking about the party, and the band. This wasn't a typical dinner/dance and we had speakers sprinkled throughout the evening which made it awkward for the band. They were extremely accommodating and played for ten minutes, twenty minutes or forty minutes - whatever we wanted. We were assured that they played everything and that they did. Great selection of music and great for dancing. Our fault we didn't realize that we needed to pay them by check. I guess we assume everyone takes credit cards and we missed that part of it in the contract. Vic was very gracious and told us to just mail a check which we took care of yesterday. We intend to hire them for next year's winter dinner/dance and as soon as we have the date we will let you know. I'd be delighted to serve as a reference for them if one is ever requested.
Thanks again,

TRIO PERSONNEL: Linda Stevens: vocalist Mike Livingston: guitar and vocal Vic Paul: keyboard and vocal =============================
Hi Vic. I can't thank you enough for your extraordinary presence on Saturday night at my husband's 50th birthday party. Your band was the HIT of the night. People were raving that evening and continue to rave about how terrific you were.
The guitar, piano and vocals were outstanding but everyone kept noticing that you all seemed to be having so much fun with us, that it didn't seem like just a job to you. You got everyone dancing and having fun - really having fun! You learned those Bruce Springsteen songs and gave my husband the best birthday of his life. I really could go on and on.
Kathy told me that you were terrific and always come through, that you had never disappointed anyone. But I have to say that it felt funny hiring a band that I had never heard and having no idea what you would be like. This was just beyond my wildest expectations.
Also, being a bit neurotic, the fact that you showed up 2 hours early and also helped my friends with technical stuff was so calming and great! And all the songs you chose, the way you worked the music between sets and handled yourselves was perfect.
So a GIANT THANK YOU for being so wonderful !!!!!!!! Please pass this on to the other two band members. Your lead singer’s voice was so great and boy did the guitar player get into his music - he was great to watch! All of you were. Also, please feel free to use me as a reference. I couldn't be happier!
Rich and I just wanted to send our thanks to you for making our wedding a GREAT party ! Despite the oppresive heat, everybody has commented on what a great time they had, and that was primarily due to you and your music.
I’ve never seen a party where virtually EVERYBODY got out on the dance floor, but that’s what we had. Even my brother, whom I haven’t seen dance since he was a teenager, was out there. The music was just what we’d hoped for--great dance music from "our era", so everyone knew the music and the words and just enjoyed !
One friend of mine sent a note the next day, with these comments: "What a blast ! Your wedding was the best. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, had a great time".
Your great entertainment was the key !
I hope we’ll have a chance to dance to your music soon.
Thanks so much for enduring the heat and making our wedding reception memorable ! Please pass along our thanks to the other members of your team. They were terrific !
Best regards,
Beth and Rich Seeley

6 PIECE BAND - WEDDING RECEPTION
Letter sent to agent
Dear Rick,
We wanted to say thank you so much for all your help you gave us for Our Wedding. Vic Paul and his band were outstanding.
Our wedding was in September and everyone has been telling us what a fantastic job they did.
I also wanted to let you know how much help that Vic himself was. He went above and beyond his role, to help us with the ceremony itself.
He is a perfect gentleman.
Perfect music helped make our wedding a day that we will always treasure.
This wedding reception was played by Vic Paul as a single.

Dear Vic,
Cliff and I want to thank you so much for a job well done at our October wedding at the Haverhill Country Club.
Everyone enjoyed the music and also very impressed that you didn’t play too loud during the dinner. Cliff and I appreciated your thoughtfulness.
The evening went by so quickly, I really didn’t want it to end.
I look forward to your Trio playing at our reunion in November.
Again, thanks for a job well done.
Pat & Cliff Blood

I am writing to let you know how very happy we were with the Vic Paul Band (5 pieces) who played at our daughter’s wedding reception at the Officers’ Club at Hanscom Field.
We loved the music and Vic Paul was wonderful as MC. During the evening the guests continually told us how much they enjoyed the band.
The dance floor was full all evening. Our teenage nieces and nephews, family and friends our age, and our older aunts and uncles all had a great time.
Our daughter and son-in-law loved them and the day after the wedding we got calls from family and friends who told us that they had never had so much fun at a wedding.
This was certainly a very professional, high class band and we are very happy that we were fortunate enough to have them play at our daughter’s wedding.
