CUSTOMER COMMENTS
 
"Just to firstly say, Thank you for the quality of the service you provided.It was efficient and easy to get the job done as quickly as possible!It took the stress out of probably one of the hardest things to decide on for our big day. Firestar were excellent. All the guests were very impressed with them.They were professional at all times.They started late through no fault of their own.Sing song started after the meal! It must have been frustrating for them but they didn't complain once.Even the manager of the hotel thought they were excellent, thought they were the most proffesional band he had seen for a long time and that they sounded great.Can't say enough about them and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you again for making our day really special, Emma"

 
"Thank you so so much for all your help. I cannot recommend your services enough to anyone and have told everybody about you. I was let down by a band I picked myself and you were able to help me in a very short space of time.
As for Streets Ahead they were also fantastic. I owe so much to you personally for recommending them. From the moment they started they had the dance floor filled. We had lots of fussy music listening people and all of them were out dancing for the night.
 
The night flew and wish it could have lasted longer because everybody had such a great time out dancing. With your help and the entertainment provided by Streets Ahead we had the best day of our lives.
 
Thanks again
 
Claire"

 
"Feedback for your services - made booking the band very easy, no hitches whatsoever.
 
Feedback for Fiesta - Extremely professional in dealing with them prior to the wedding. They made the night, our guests are still talking about them & saying that they were the best wedding band they have ever heard & I agree completely! They had the floor full all night! Would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat - could not have asked for more! Majella "

 
"The band were absolutely fantastic.  We had requested a relatively obscure first song and they executed it perfectly. Overall I would highly recommend them and many the guest commented on how great they were! Charmaine"

 
"I can honestly say that fiesta were great. Everyone commented on how good they were and they played the right music for the audience, Dj was great too, we gave him a playlist on the night and asked if he could possible play some of the songs and he played almost all of them. very accomodating.I have also recommneded Good Gigs Music Agency to a couple of people and will continue to do so if anyone asks. Thanks for your help.Anne-Marie"

 
"Your services were excellent, I did  find you very prompt and helpfull, especially with your guidance and recommendations as I didn't have the time to trawl venues listening to bands.Shindig were great.They were very friendly and lively which is what I wanted. I was delighted when they arrived and had Paddys Day hats and that on them and even wore some leprechaun beards, they got into the spirit of the day which was great.They had no problem in talking to the crowds and I feel they went the extra mile and took requests from the people in our restaurant.. I have to say that it was a great experience in dealing with yourselves and with Shindig. Thanks Pam (IKEA) "

 
"Hi Rachel, Thank you.
 
We had a wonderful day and Final Touch were just fantastic everyone was raving about them the dance floor was full all night. Only for your agency I would never have found them so thank you very much. We are in California on our honeymoon we've almost a week done and 2 more to go it's really beautiful over here.  
Take care and the best of luck to you in April it's your wedding then?
 
Kind regards Avril x x"

 
"Hi Rachel, Shindig were fabulous.  We had them here last Paddy’s day as well and they went down a treat.  Thanks a million for getting them for me." Caroline

 
"Just wanted to take a minute to drop you guys a quick line to say thanks so much for making our wedding reception memorable.  I know it's a bit of a cliche, but honestly, the guests have not stopped commenting on how great you guys were! Our crowd fancy themselves as big into their music so it was a tough job to impress them, but you guys did.  We all had a ball- the mix of music was great and everyone from the granny to the serious music-heads were well impressed. Thanks so much for being part of the day- we'll definitely be recommending you guys into the future! Thanks again!! Ciara & Michael "

 
"Hi the Party was brilliant. The lads had their work cut out for them as the crowd did not really get into it for a while but that wasn't down to the band. it had just been a bad week in work.   We were really happy with the quality of the band and the lads were brilliant for getting into the crowd to help get people up on the dance floor. "

 
"It was an astounding success! Both entertainers were absolutely outstanding. Very professional all through. I would have no hesitation booking both again in an instant. It was our first time booking a band/magician as we normally just had a DJ but that’s the end of that from now on!

Your agency was very professional also. Very much a personalized service……especially helpful was the detailed info on your acts e.g the CD ‘Rainbow’ sent won the gig for them to be honest & I told Alec this also.I hope we can do business again in the near future!" Regards Tony


 
"Good Gigs were excellent in helping us organise a band for our wedding. I found them by chance on the Internet and it was one of the best finds. We planned a quick wedding as we're emigrating to Canada and with 8 weeks to go cancelled a band we decided we dd not want. We were also quite specific in what we wanted as we had a wedding party in a not so traditional venue. When I found Good Gigs they were extremely professional. I filled the form through the website, not thinking I would have much prospects at such short notice. GoodGigs came back with 13 bands bidding for our wedding. We couldn't believe we had so much choice. We were then able to contact bands to go see them and found an amazing band. Rachel was helpful and professional to deal with and sorting out deposit and other details was easy. Fiesta were amazing and made our wedding day fantastic, but we don't think this would have been possible without Good Gigs.
 
Fiesta was the band we picked for our wedding party from the list GoodGigs sent us. We sent my brother and Dad to check them out for us and they came back saying we absolutely had to book them. So we did. Fiesta turned up for our wedding looking extremely professional, and a lot bigger than we imagined. They are a real band with lots of equipment. They played a great mix of the music we loved all night all night with lots of rock and current band hits, pop and waltzes thrown in for good measure. They had no problem playing the song we wanted for our first dance. They knew it already but said they would have no problem learning something for us. They are excellent musicians and singers. In short Fiesta made our wedding. Everyone has been talking about them since and a few people took details to contact them for their own bookings." Regards Sara

 
"Touche were excellent everyone young and old was up dancing at some stage so they catered for everyone which is what we were looking for. They were very professional and sounded great. I've already recomeded yourselves to a number of people and will continue to do so as we found the service ideal for saving us time and taking a lot of the work out of trying to find a good band.Hope business is going well thanks for all your help,
Regards Ross"


 
"Thanks so much for your good wishes. We had a fantastic day. John was amazing. A lovely guy to deal with and the sound was fantastic. Everybody commented on how great he was.

Your services were great. You are very easy to deal with and you were able to source John very quickly for me.
Thanks again, Orla"


 
"We had a brilliant night, we got to bed at around 4:00a.m. What can I say about Helter Skelter except BLOODY BRILLIANT!!!! The dance floor wasn't empty once. The one thing that was making me nervous about the evening was that my family are notorious for sitting and talking at any event but not last Friday - they were all up and dancing the night away! Various comments throughout the evening were... Where did you find them?, fantastic!, brilliant! - everyone was commenting on how good they were. One person (my mother's generation) told me they were so good you couldn't stay sitting!!!
Many thanks Rachel for all your help with organising them!
Rebecca"

"Hi Rachel,Just back from honeymoon but did want to let you know that the band were fantastic.  Everyone thought they were brilliant and the dance floor was full for the whole night.   Booking them through your agency made it so much easier also because it was better than going by word of mouth and very reliable.   Thanks a mil for all your help." Ger

"What can I say - Brass and Co were fantastic!! They kept the floor full all night, our guests loved them and so did we. I would highly recommend Brass and Co to anybody, they were very helpful, friendly and professional on the lead up to the wedding and on the night the were really great! Thanks very much for your help.
Kind Regards Caitriona"

"Thank you so much, we had a fantastic day. Everything went perfectly i am happy to say.. I found Streets Ahead very professional and they delivered great entertainment. All of our guests commented on how good they are and how great a singer the female vocalist is. The band catered for all age groups attending the wedding and finished their set very well. I was very happy that the band could re create our chosen song for the first dance and i have to say it was done brilliantly.
We really appreciate you recommending Streets Ahead to us as they are an excellent band and great value for money. Rachel, It was a pleasure to deal with you as you were both friendly and efficient and you provided an excellent service.
I will be recommending Good Gigs Music Agency and Streets Ahead to family and friends and we wish you all the best of luck for the future. Best Regards Alison & John"

"The band were phenomenal. They really were fantastic. We were delighted with how the night went and extremely happy. Thanks a lot for making it so easy for us Rachel. I will no doubt pass on your name to any of my friends who are looking for a band. . ." Antoinette

"Just a quick mail to say that the wedding went great and Fiesta were absolutely fabulous, the dance floor was jam packed for the entire night thanks to the guys. I also found your service excellent!" Yvonne

Hi Rachel,

Paul from Advance DJs was brilliant and really worked the crowd! He was super friendly and helpful and was able to handle all requests. I was worried as we didn't have space for a band but Paul really made the night work and we didn't miss a band at all!

As for your own service, you were an absolute pleasure to deal with, and the most efficient and helpful person we worked with for all our Wedding planning.

We will definitely use and recommend your agency again.

Many thanks, Monica


Hi Rachel,

Wedding was brilliant, everyone had a ball. Cannot believe it is all over.  Fiesta were absolutely fantastic, I cannot recommend them highly enough to anyone thinking of booking.

For our first dance song, we wanted this played by the original artist and Willie had this all sorted for us and brought in his own iPod and hooked it up.  Straight away after this song he had the crowd on the floor and we didn't stop all night.  One fella had to go up and change he was sweating so much from dancing!! They done DJ for us aswell and it was so handy. There was no messing about and just a smooth transfer from band to DJ.  They had a great selection of songs and played old and new. Any requests we had were played without any hassle.

If was doing it all over again I would book them in the morning. Brilliant! Please recommend them, they will not let you down.  Ask any of my guests, everyone thought they were excellent, and I'm still getting compliments about them. 

Thanks a million for your help and the services of good gigs, I would
have been lost without ye.

Regards, Roisín


"Just a quick mail to say a big thank you for all your help finding me a band for my Dad's 60th birthday on Fri August 10th. Rainbow were brilliant and everyone enjoyed them, the night was a huge sucess! thanks again for everything, looking forward to dealing with you agian in the future."

"10th December 2008 - Just wanted to drop you a line and say thank you so much for a fantastic gig on Friday last. You were great, especially allowing us sad rock n' roll wannabes up to sing. We'll definately be recommending you to anyone looking for a band in the future. Regards, Natalie & David"

Hi Rachel,
 
Only just back from our honeymoon so sorry for the delay in replying  TOW THE LINE were an absolutely brilliant band. They kept the dance floor full for as long as they were playing and we were delighted with them. They did exactly what we asked of them and all the guests were talking about them afterwards.
 
Your service made it very easy for us to find a band that suited our needs I think it probably saved us wasting a lot of time going to see bands that wouldn't have suited us. We went to see 3 bands from the list you sent us and they were all good but TOW THE LINE just stood out a little more.  I phoned a number off the list but knew by talking to them that they were not what we wanted which saved a lot of time. It was great to have a list of bands knowing what they charged. We didn't have to contact any if they were outside our budget although I think all on the list you supplied were within our budget.
 
Thanks a million,
Sharon

Hi Rachel,
In reply to the email you sent me earlier, I have one or two things to say.

Firstly , about the service we received from your company, I could not have asked for a more helpful, friendly, competent person to deal with. You took the stress out of trailing the pubs and net for a decent band to entertain our guests. Thank you very much!

Secondly, STREETS AHEAD, well they were just that, streets ahead of other bands that we went to see for our reception. Being a singer, we are a very critical bunch, there's only good things that I can say about the band. Their choice of music kept the party going all night and most importantly kept everybody up on the floor bopping away.  All of our guests thought the band were great. That says it all!!
I will and have recommended your service and Streets Ahead to those who have enquired.

Thank you very much for all your help, take care and I hope to talk to you again soon.

Yours gratefully
A.


Hi Rachel,
I could not be more pleased with how the evening went. BRASS & CO were absolutely fabulous. Your services were great. Thank you. I hope we will be dealing with you again.
Kindest regards,
MD


Hi  Rachel
We had a great day despite the constant rain!  SANTORIA were fantastic and
the age group at the reception thought they played great music, and so too
did their DJ.  I found your service very good and it saved me a lot of time
in booking a band.  I have recommended you to others who enquired where I
had heard of the band from.  Thanks again.

Hi Rachel,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I have just got back from my honeymoon. Blacktye were brilliant. The music sounded great and a really good mix of songs. They got everyone up dancing. The jazz duo were also very good. They were well organised and easy to contact. I would thoroughly recommend them.
With regard to your services, I thought they were very good. You got back to me quickly when I emailed and sent information and receipts promptly. I thought the service was very helpful especially as I do not live in Ireland and had no idea how to find a wedding band. I would certainly recommend your service.
Regards, L.

Dear Rachel,I would like to thank you for such a professional service.  This is exactly what I needed, I have been bogged down with the amount of musicians out there and the crazy prices I have been quoted. We will do our research and hopefully you will hear from us within a month or so with a booking. I will also be recommending your service to my friends who are getting married.  Kind Regards,  C. 

Hi, Rachel.
LAST GASP were absolutely fantastic. They made the whole evening so special - the atmosphere was great and the music was the best ever. I couldn't say enough good things about them! Best ever.
from Elizabeth

Thank you to Blue Moon Jazz band that played at our wedding reception on 1st June 2007, they were brilliant and being a sunny day added to the whole atmosphere, thanks again, very happy with them.

Dear Rachel,   As you know I booked "Deilin" to play at my brother's 40th Birthday at Terenure Rugby Club on Saturday last ...   I would just like to say that the band proved ideal for the occasion and were a big hit with everybody on the night. The band were highly professional in their approach and were a pleasure to deal with. They responded very positively to a number of special requests, both before and during the party itself. A big thank you to Ann Marie, Ciaran and Rob, whose performance played no small part in what everyone agreed was a great night.   I would also like to thank you and your agency for your professionalism and courtesy in handling the band booking for this occasion.Yours sincerely, Finian

Hi Rachel, Melissa here. I would just like to thank you for helping me find a band for my sister's 21st birthday. We had the party on Saturday night just gone and it was brilliant.  Obviously the band made it.  The VOLTS were a 5 star band in every way. Their music was brilliant and they were so friendly to me and my family.  I would recommend them to anyone having any type of party. They were just brilliant.  Thanks again for all your help.
Yours sincerely,
Melissa

Hi Rachel, Thank you for your e-mail. The night went very well. Andy and Marion (Blue Moon) were excellent. Everybody enjoyed the music and it was perfectly up to the occasion. Thank you. Regards NG

Rachel,

Our event was absolutely brilliant. I heard nothing but fantastic reviews and responses to the band "Swing & Co". They really were amazing. I couldn't compliment them enough. Thank you so much.

Susan.


Hi Rachel,

First day back after a month off so major depression today!

The wedding day was absolutely fantastic – a day we will never forget.  As for the Mongrels, well what can I say……THEY WERE BRILLIANT! Peter Keogh was very approachable from the start and tried to accommodate us wherever possible.  i.e. meeting us beforehand, setting up early on in the day so as to have no delays in the evening time, attempting to learn our first dance song.The music throughout was excellent and it showed with the dance floor being full from early on. We had a lot of positive comments also from the guests which was great to hear.

Being honest, we did have one or two doubts about whether we had made the right band selection because we hadn’t got to see them in action in that sort of environment beforehand but I am so glad we didn’t change our minds.  I wouldn’t have any problem in recommending the guys to anybody in the future, or Good Gigs Music Agency for that matter.

Thanks again for all your help Rachel.

Many Thanks, Shane


Many thanks for recommending Andy and sending the booking form which I have printed and filled out. Andy sounds like just the right person for our family gathering. I have to say that I have been very impressed by the promptness with which you have handled my request and I would definitely use your service again. I would also be happy to recommend your service to any family and friends looking for musicians in the future. A great idea, well executed, and I wish you every success. Áine
