Hi,

Just a quick note to thank you for the weekend.  I'm an old school recording engineer that has worked for Carole King, Peter Cetera and Steve Miller to name a few.  I can count great singers on one hand that I've had the pleasure of working with and the list of singers is much longer than the names above, they just never made it to that 1 hand.  I grew up knowing your songs, but when you listen to the Albums (or CD's now, not to mention the 8 tracks, and yes I had some) you do not get the true representation of the performance that each artist gave for that recording. You have now been placed, in my book, as one of those singers that gets added to that one hand.  There were moments on Saturday night that you sent chills up my spine (Somewhere Medley).  I've been doing this 30 + years and I don't get wowed about much anymore, I just mix and do what I do with all of the tricks I've learned over the years and of course I know when to use them and when NOT to.

The Eastside Cannery has it's little groupies that come to all of the shows and I've gotten to know them (like ya do).  So I'm chatting with one of them after tonight's show and I asked the question of which has been your favorite show in this room so far.  Now keeping in mind that she is a true blue "Vogues" fan, being from the same town in PA as the Vogues,  however the response for her favorite show was tonight's (Sat) performance with "The Happening's".

I truly hope our paths cross again.  
until next time, safe travels

Comments: Caught your show last nite at the East Side Cannery here in Vegas, all I can say is "WOW". Living here I have seen many of the "old" time greats and let me assure you, for me, you rank up there on top with the best. Many good wishes for the future and keep it rolling for us old timers.

Comments: Thank you for helping out Saturday as the LAST MINUTE replacement for Jimmy Beaumont and the Skyliners. YOU WERE FANTASTIC. My husband has taught me to love Doo Wop but as you were on stage, I had to whisper in his ear "At least I was BORN, for these hits". The whole show was terrific, Thank you again for filling in.

Comments: Back in the mid 60's our local college, booked the Happenings for one of their events. My best friend lived right behind the gym. We helped take in some gear and everyone was very nice. The performance that night helped cement my decision to become a musician. Thanks to the Beatles and the Happenings I'm still playing today, some 40 years later. Thank You and all the best.

Saw you guys last night in Middletown, great show, Bob can still hit the high notes.
I took my 19 year old daughter to see you.  I explained how your songs brought me back to a time where we would drive in Harry's mother's  Pontiac tempest with the top down and sing I got Rhythm and See you in September.  Harry's gone now but for a few minutes last night I could almost feel him next to me tapping the dashboard trying to keep a beat to your songs.
 
Thanks

As a former musician all you gentlemen are "perfection personified". You deserve the thunderous Standing Ovations you receive.
08/30/09 - Private Party

Hi Bob,
 
I know you've exchanged emails with my Mom since my Dad's party, but I just wanted to add my own thanks for such an amazing event, and bookend this utterly spectacular chapter in my folks' lives with the other email that started it all last April.
 
You guys really did make this party completely over the top, and I (and the rest of my family and friends) cannot thank you enough.  With all of the busy-ness of day-to-day life and seemingly incessant touring schedules, for you to take the time to help us honor our Dad on his 70th birthday really meant more to my sisters and me (and of course our Mom and Dad) than I could possibly relate.  As much as the phrase "the time of their lives" is thrown around, it has never been more true than that night, and, simply put, your being there made it just that.  
 
Suffice to say, I can assure you that it will go down in the Robinson Family history as the most memorable event ever!
 
Thank You SO Much!!!
 
Cheers,
 
Jonathan Robinson
