MAUREEN's Celebration in EAGLEBY, Mar 2025

Well I am sorry to have to say but he didn’t deliver as expected. I asked his wife to ask him to sing more lively In fact about 4 - 4.30 I gave him his money and asked him to leave. We had a St Patrick’s day theme so I sent him an email could he include some Irish songs he sang 2. His breaks were getting longer and looked like he didn’t want to be there. Some songs were good ones however he just looked to old and tired. Spoilt the afternoon unfortunately.

John was a fantastic addition to our Christmas party- lovely music choices all round and was efficient in set-up and pack-down. Would happily use John again!
