	Dear David: We want to thank you so much for making Adam's Bar Mitzvah party such a success. Randy, Jay and the band were just fabulous. Vicky was phenomenal. They kept the party moving and even played later than they were supposed to when they saw that everyone was still enjoying themselves. They managed to please both the adults and the kids, no easy task. Everyone wanted to know where I found them, and a friend who is a music aficionado raved about them! Even though we told them personally, please let them all know that we think their efforts helped create a truly fabulous evening. We look forward to seeing them again in 3 years at Romy's Bar Mitzvah Sincerely, Harold and Janice Winnett
	Dear Dave, Now that we have settled down from the euphoric activities of Jessica's Bat Mitzvah, we can reflect on some of the highlights of that event and on the people who played an important role in its success There is no doubt that "Entertainment Designers" led by you, Dave, was the superstar of all the activities which took place during a very exciting weekend. Your enthusiasm, artistic skills and energy kept the party going in a high gear throughout the evening and into the wee hours of the morning. Nobody wanted to stop. It was great and you and your band were superb All of you behaved in a professional, ethical and reliable manner Thank you for a wonderful experience. We will call you back for another happy event! Sincerely, Jacques R. Sardas
	Dear David, I hope this letter finds you well and fully rested. As I am basking in the afterglow of what was truly one of the greatest experiences of my life, I am writing to express my profound sense of gratitude to you. My daughter's Bat Mitzvah party was an unforgettable celebration. You played a critical role in making it what it was. You get it. Your ability to read the crowd, set the proper tone (please forgive the pun), control the pace, and get everybody up on the dance floor and into the festivities is unparalleled. Beyond your incredible musical talent, and your amazing might into what makes a party a great success, you bring a personal energy, humanity and passion to what you do and the results are phenomenal. Additionally, every musician in your group is so versatile, with your leadership, they go seamlessly from Israeli and Jewish music, to folk, pop, soul and back again. They're great singers and collectively are the best party band I've ever heard. I've been deluged with phone calls from friends and family expressing how much fun everybody had and singling out your band as a big reason why. You should he very proud of yourself. You provide a wonderful service. Thank you so much for being there for us. I will always think of you as a friend to our family, and I look forward to one day hiring you to perform at my daughter wedding. With a deep appreciation, Richard Posalski
	Dear David: It is such as pleasure to wrtie this letter to you. Brianna's Bat Mitzvah was a huge success! Everyone enjoyed themselves immensely. During the planning stages of the party, some friends asked me what a Bat Mitzvah party would be like. I described it as a big wedding-like party, but for kids, where adults have fun too. I can't tell you how much this description came to life! I know that kids had a blast as evidenced by the constantly poulated dance floor. But the adults were right there too! I received many compliments and thank you notes from friends and family about how much fun they had. One of my best friends wrote, "Dale and I want to thank you two for inviting us to Briann's Bat Mitzvah. Dale said it was the best party he ever attended!! I had so much fun and danced and ...l ." My sister-in-law's mother wrote a poem about the day. Here's an excerpt, "The best DJ ever kept us dancing to the beat; it was so much fun we forgot to stop and eat... " I also want to thank you for recommending that we contract the two dance hosts. They kep the party moving, jumping, dancing, etc. Kids and adults alike told us later how much they enjoyed having them. Also, the keyboard player at the cocktail reception really added a nice touch. Thank you for that. Overall, I can't tell you enough how pleased and happy we were with everything you did for us. As I said before, the party was a huge success and I don't know how we could have made it any better! Our next Bat Mitzvah is in June 2010, so please pencil us in. We look forward to working with you again.
	Dear David, We would like to express our appreciation with your performance at our son Alex's Bar Mitzvah You and your band made it a total success. You know how Margaret and I were nervous before the party. You assured us that everything would be OK, and it was! As Master of Ceremony you control the whole event. Everything went so smoothly. Your choice of music and performance were so superb that all the guests mentioned it to us. Again, we want to thank you for a job well done! Sincerely, Margaret and Leon Peck
	Dear David: One week ago today, we had our Bat Mitzvah. My Granddaughter Amanda did fantastically well, everything was lovely, speaking for my immediate family we laughed the night away. We had a wonderful time. Thanks to you. You were the core of the celebration, creating an atmosphere of joy. You were the most important person there besides the Bat Mitzvah girl. There is no way for me to tell you how fantastic you are. When we saw you perform last summer at our friends affair we knew you were performing for us too. You are without question the best "Musical Director" anyone can hope to have. Your way with children is unbelievable, they didn't know what hit them except they had the best time of their lives. David I could go on. You're the best, and I appreciate your coming to Tucson to make our party what it was. Without you, forget it. Also, many guests came over to me, people I had not met before, and said "where did you find him"? When I have a party for 20 or 200, wherever it may be, New York or California, you'll entertain us. Much love, Harriet & Bob Meltzer
	Dear David, I felt that I had to write and compliment you for your performance at my niece's Bat Mitzvah. I thought that you were wonderful. The event ran smoothly and everyone had a good time. I would recommend you anytime. Again thank you, all the best. Michael Lerner
	Dear David, I can't begin to thank you for your extraordinary performance at my daughter Hilary's Bat Mitzvah. When I saw you perform in LA, I knew right away that you were the right person for our special event. Your Charisma added a new level of entertainment for all. Your ability to mix the Judaic music with the "popular" stuff while keeping focus on the importance and meaning of the day was absolutely phenomenal! I have received so many compliments on your performance and repeated comments about how wonderful the event was for them and their children Fortunately, I have four children and look foreword to you helping to make each of their event unique and wonderful as well. I hope to keep in touch. You are so talented and you bring so much to any event. Thanks Again, Alli Kustoff
	Dear David: I am writing to express my deepest appreciation and thanks to you and your colleagues for the fantastic job you all did at my son's Bar Mitzvah party recently. The party atmosphere you engendered, and in particular the way you involved all the children and even teenagers (!) was truly superb. Everyone who has called me to thank me (and many have) has praised the entertainment as being utterly outstanding. I cannot thank you enough for making the party so special and so unforgettable for everyone who was there. You exceeded my expectations in every respect! With my very best wishes to you. your family, and your staff. Shalom, Andrew H. Kopkin
	Dear David, I wanted to take a moment to let you know that your band was the hit of our party! From the moment your group took the stage, the entire gathering of 200 people could not sit still. I was amazed to watch the older people shaking it up right along with the kids - or should I say I was amazed to find the kids dancing alongside the adults! The Israeli tunes were spirited and engaging, the pop songs lively, and the "corny" tunes ("The Chicken Song!," "YMCA," and others) turned out to be the greatest of all. Being that this was the 1st Bar Mitzvah on Kauai, you have set a precedent that is going to be impossible to top. Unless of course you come back to do a return engagement! David, your music and ability to engage the people certainly helped form an evening that will never be forgotten. Please call me if you need a recommendation. Or you may use this letter freely if you so desire. With much gratitude, plenty of Shalom, and heartfelt Aloha, Marty Kahn President, Kahn Galleries
	Dear David, I wanted to write to you to thank you so much for performing at my daughter's bat mitzvah. You were fabulous, everyone had a wonderful time, and I have to tell you, that you got people up dancing that I never thought I would see dance! I can't thank you enough for the fun and professionalism you provided to our celebration. You were a huge part of the success of our event.
	David- When it came time for Melinda's Bat Mitzvah, I am so glad we were able to track you down. How many times have you done people's weddings and then come back to do their kids Bar and Bat Mitzvahs? You really made the party the wonderful occasion that it was. We got the video recently and the party was just as wonderful as we remembered it. Your selection of music made everyone happy from the grandparents to the little ones. All of the musicians that worked with you are out of this world. They were simply superb. Everything from Havdalah to the candle lighting ceremony and even the games was done so well and with such spirit. Melinda was so glad to have the opportunity to play with your band as well. The party made her so happy, and we get compliments from our friends and relatives all the time. Many say it was the best Bat Mitzvah they even attended. You really know how to sense the mood of the party and keep it going. You always knew what to do and when to do it. The mix of Jewish music, rock, oldies and standards made everyone happy. Once again, thank you for making it such a special day we will always treasure. Sincerely, Jeff and Judy Gottesman
	Dear David, Thank you for all your help with Jeanna's Bat Mitzvah. It was a wonderful party and you were a terrific Master of Ceremony. We appreciate the time you spent with us creating a schedule of the day and fine tuning the acknowledgment ceremony. You had some terrific ideas that we incorporated. We loved the band you put together. The sixties music you chose sounded great. You were absolutely right to have an electric guitar player there. Your singer's also sounded terrific! We were thrilled to have you at Rebecca's Bat Mitzvah a year ago and felt as fortunate to have you at Jeanna's Bat Mitzvah this year. We want you to M.C. their weddings! We loved the fact that you incorporated Israeli Folk Dancing into the Hora and accommodated Jeanna's requests for certain songs. It was a terrific party and you played a major part in the success of the day. We have and will continue to recommend you to all our friends and relatives. Thank you again! Sincerely, Judy & Jack Gindi
	Dear David: Please forgive my delay in sending you this well deserved letter of praise for your services at my son Donald's Bar Mitzvah. I think it took me this long to catch my breath from the fabulous time we had that night! David, you were everything you promised, and more. We have never been to a better party, and even though we may be biased, we heard the same compliment from our guests. The music, energy and fun never stopped. We just received our party video, and it confirms what we thought all along -- everyone was up and dancing all night long! And, it wasn't just the kids who boogied the night away -- every guest from eight months to 86 years of age, was involved in the celebration. This was due in no small part to your unflagging energy and enthusiasm, and the incredible talent of your musicians and singer. We couldn't have asked for a better band, D.J., light show or singer. The show you all put on was incredible. Being in "the business," I know only too well the importance of music to the success of an event. Our party, because of your involvement, was an unqualified hit. We can't thank you enough for your helping to provide the kind of celebration we had hoped for to mark this most joyous event in the life of our family. We recommend you and your colleagues without reservation -- you were the greatest. A thousand thanks. Sincerely, Olivia Cohen-Cutler
	Dear David, I want to thank you so much lot a most incredible party! I can't express to you how amazing it was for our family! You expertise is unmatched ! I have been to dozens of Bar Mitzvahs and none compare to the ones that you lead. Your choice of music is perfect! The Hebrew and Jewish music made the guests so enthusiastic that normally sedentary people were dancing like Chasidim! Your music for the candle lighting was perfect, even though we never had a chance to even discuss it! You transitioned to every stage so smoothly, everything flowed so naturally. You kept the party going exactly as I hope for. The best part of all, which I've never seen any other DJ do, is invite everyone up to blow out the candles, then transition into "Henai 'Ma Tov" with everyone surrounding my son with love and blessings. It was one of the most beautiful moments in our lives! The Kids loved the games and prizes. .And we loved your singing and costume changes. I just can't wait to hire you back for two more B’nei Mitzvot-my daughter’s and son's, not soon enough! May your simchas all be this wonderful! Sincerely, Rena Benor
	Dear David, It's been almost 2 months since Dafna's Bat Mitzvah, but the memories are still fresh and beyond wonderful, in large part due to you! Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for your dedication, professionalism and "passion" for your work and your commitment to all who are fortunate echough to have you and your musicians as part of our simchas and lives! It's wonderful that we've known you for six years now, and have been at so many b'nai mitzvot of dear friends, where you have performed and added so much to the joy of the occasion. Since you were at our son, Raphael's, in Phoenix four years ago, we'd been anxiously waiting when you would join us for Dafna's! We received so many exemplary comments about you and how the whole evening flowed, from the beautiful Havdalah, to the seet accompianment to the candle-lighting ceremony, to the very touching friendship circle at the end of the party. Everyone had a blast! The kids were non-stop at their dacing and games, which was great entertainment for the adults, when we weren't out of breath from all of our dancing and playing! As you know, recently and over the years, we have happily recommended you to friends and anyone who asked! We even got comments from all the other professionals who staffed our evetn, the photographer, caterer, and videographer, who appreciated working with you and I don't doubt they're also recommending you as well! We can't think of having a bat/bar mitzvah without you (remember to mark you calendar for Gabriel's on February 22, 2003!) We're looking forward to celebrating with you again, which with your success, will be soon I'm sure! Until then ,again many, many thanks and mazel tov to you for being such a talent, and such a fine and special person. With friendship, Chaim & Wendy Avraham
	Dear David, Jeanne and I want to thank you so much for your work at Joey's Bar Mitzvah. We received numerous complements about your music and your work. The party was non-stop. Your music was incredible. your directions for the celebration music allowed everyone to participate. There were many people who had not been to Bar Mitzvah's who were surprised how much more fun it could be. You got everything started from the grand entrance and it was non-stop. Before we knew it, it was over. There was something for everyone and especially the children. They enjoyed your enthusiasm and leadership. The big kids (over 30) were awestruck at the level of activity and excitement. You certainly deliver High Spirit just like you say. The music at the candle ceremony was just fabulous and the way you transitioned each event into the next was spectacular. Some of the comments I received were: "He's Great!" "I love the hats and gloves" "Where did you find him!" "Make sure you take care of him" We will be glad to recommend you to our friends. You are more than welcome to use us as a reference for future customers. I hope our guests become future clients and we can enjoy your talents at future simchas. Knowing you will be entertaining at a simcha guarantees us we will have good time. P.S. We even played your CD's that evening to keep the spirit going! Alan and Jean Abramson
	Dear David: I would like to thank you for the beautiful job that you did aboard the "Destiny" with your wonderful choice of music and your performance.You and your staff made my daughter, Aleeza Janelle's celebration memorable. We had a a lot of compliments on how wonderful you were and how well you has everyone involved and having a great time. The choice of games for the kids were also fabulous. David, thank you for being a part of my daughter's special day. I hope we will see you again soon. May God Bless you David. Sincerely, Mimi Bohm
	Dear David, It is difficult for us to express in words our gratitude and appreciation for making our daughter's October 18th Bat Mitzvah the huge success that it was. As you know, we were so thrilled with your performance at our oldest daughter's Bat Mitzvah four years ago, that we again made an effort to fly you and your whole group up from Los Angeles. We were not disappointed and in fact were wondering if you would be able to live up to your first appearance. You, in fact, surpassed yourself with new equipment and lighting. We were surprised that the already good sized dance floor was not adequate due to all the simcha, rauch, and desire of our guests to get out there and party! Two weeks later and we are still receiving phone calls and notes about "what a ball" everyone had. Thanks for making our evening the blast that it was! In appreciation, Roni, Julie, Dana, and Amy Ovadia P.S. We are looking forward to seeing you at Dana's and Amy's weddings! P.S.S. We constantly play your C.D.s and I am actually listening to you now as I write this letter. Please keep us updated with your new recordings.
	Dear David; Thank you for helping make Ariana's Bat Mitzvah a celebration a spectacular success! Your entertainment and lighting were great. In fact, somtimes we couldn't tell the difference between the CDs and your singing because your live performances were so good. The friendship circles were moving; the opening Jewish music sequence was just great. And the piano music during the cocktail hour was beautiful. The lighting really made a difference in thge ambiance in the room. We received many compliments from our guest who said it was the best party they had ever been to! We also appreciate your help in planning the party, including suggesting the order of the party (eg. candelighting, grand entrance, eating, etc.) and your room decorating ideas, Thank you for coordinating so well with Randy and Debbie of Creme de la Creme. Thank you for a wonderful job. We look forward to sharing more simchas with you.
	Dear David: I would like to thank you for the outstanding job you did at our son's Bar Mitzvah. We had many compliments on your band from our guests. You got almost everyone on the dance floor for the first circle dance, and you had them dancing continuosly for more than half an hour. Many guests said they had never danced so much or had so much fun at any party. You had the perfect balance between dancing music and background music while the guests were dining. In addition you were wonderful with the children, and all of Michael's friends said that they had never had so much fun at a Bar Mitzvah. The lighting that you brought with you was also great and added a lot to the party atmosphere. And being an audio file, I could appreciate the quality of your sound system. We appreciate that you were more than a band leader, you were a great Master of Ceremonies. You worked non stop to be sure the evening flowed well, and I believe you never even took a break. I only wish we had known about you in time for our two daughter's Bat Mitzvahs. As they say in Hebrew, Kol Ha Kavod (all the honors)! And thanks again for a job extremely well done. Best regards, Bernie and Tiki Belkin
	Hi David, Wow! What a party! David , you did it again. We were so thrilled five years ago with the services of your band for my daughter's Bat Mitzvah, there was never any doubt that you would do boy's B'nai Mitzvah. So much planning goes into these affairs, and your music and lighting was so much an integral part of the wonderfully successful party we enjoyed. When we met with you initially to set up this party, and we've known each other for years, our brainstorming came up with a "MUSIC AROUND THE WORLD" theme. Miriam is Israeli, I'm Sephardic, my grandparents are Turkish, our relatives are South African, Ethiopian, South American, Middle Eastern, what better idea than to do such a varied assortment of music. The kids enjoyed their "regular" Bar Mitzvah music in addition to the music we wanted. Your dancers were also so involved. They got the party moving immediately. They appeared far more more professional that many of the other Bnai' Mitzvah we've attended where the dancers are 16 and 17 years old. I can see why you are so successful, you are so professional! David, again, I can't Thank you enough! Sincerely, Micheal B. Carmona
	Dear David, "Live with Passion" is the recording we heard each and every time we called your office. You live by this statement and certainly brought passion through music to our simcha. Music is such an integral part of Jewish living. You appropriately created the right atmosphere and ruach throughout Noah's Bar-Mitzvah festivities. The service was complete with the background music at the Kiddush. Fun was had by all at our Saturday night party with your "special touches," spirited "DJ-ing" and wonderful team of musicians. Thanks for taking the time to meet with Noah face-to-face on two occasions. Getting to know your Jewish past added a personal touch to Noah's experience that most Bar-Mitzvah's don't have. Thanks for everything. B'Shalom, Becky
	Dear David, We are writing to thank you for the great job you and Randy did at our daughter's bat mitzvah! It was beyond all of our expectations. You are truly a talented entertainer. The kids had fun, the adults had fun, the older people had fun-even we had fun. We didn't have to worry about anything because you directed and paced things so beautifully. Even people who usually slip out early from parties stayed until the end. We keep getting compliments. You can be sure that we will be calling you in a few years for our son's bar mitzvah! You really know how to make a party great! Sincerely, Patti and Ken Lerner
	Dear David, What a fantastic job you, the band and Randy (the D.J.) dud at Michael's Bar Mitzvah celebration. As you know, we required a lot of hand holding in planning Michael's event since we had never seen your band perform prior to Michael's Bar Mitzvah. 'You met and exceeded every expectation; you listened to us and provided the type of elegance and song selection that we requested I can't ever remember being at a party where I enjoyed listening to the music as much as I did at Michael's party. The singers, the musicians, everything you did was really "top drawer" and I Cook forward to working with you in the future. Again, thanks so much for everything you did, Steven J. Fishman
	Dear David, I have been receiving the most wonderful compliments on Jason's Bar Mitzvah which I must pass on to you. Your terrific music and warm personality really set the tone for a fabulous evening, for all of us. the background music at the cocktail hour was the start of an altogether perfect night. As you know we had guests from all age groups and several countries, and yet there was something for everyone. The hora set was unsurpassed... the kids loved the Israeli dancing, fun games... the upbeat, lively and truly beautiful music was enjoyed by all. The evening was a dream come true. We wish to thank you and your very talented colleagues we could not have done it without you or them. On a personal note, I must tell you how very appreciative I am for your being there with us the whole night, inspite of personal conflict you had with your friends wedding. I will never forget that, you really came through for us. Thank you for everything. Warmly, Vera
