Greg, from last night, you’re a class act. I was the fellow that approached you at Bldg.24 Live well before the show. It meant a lot to me that you had the gal come over to me to apologize for your hurried state. By no means did you need to apologize, but it just reflects on your kindness. Again, GREAT SHOW, and if I wasn’t a True Funk Soldier before last night, I definitely I’m now!!!!!!

Thank you Greg and band! FABULOUS show at Oakland Yoshi’s Thursday, 7/10! I already can’t wait for you to come back again. Greg, you are a hell of a band leader! You and your band have captured the spirit of the ’70’s east bay sound and still sound fresh and innovative. Love it, love it, love it! PLEASE keep doing it!

Had fabulous time. You guys may not quite realize how much joy fans like I get listening to your music. I sang along (to myself) with The Devil You Know. He skipped the “ouch” he gives on the CD version. Was slightly disappointed that Lee didn’t have his trombone! Will look forward to seeing you again when you are in the Reading/Philly area or Orlando as we have a winter home there. Good luck in your endeavors and get 3.0 out soon!

I wrote you before the show last night at Sculler’s letting you know how much is was looking forward to the show.
Well, you guys rocked the house last night. Truly one of the best musical performances I have ever seen. I can’t say enough. I felt the presence of War, Marvin Gaye and Al Green on the old classic vocal performances and sounds of Peabo Bryson and some Herb Alpert on some of the instrumental tracks (Greg I hope that is a complement) and some TOP too. I was really impressed by the “musicianship” that Greg mentioned at the outset of the show. Definitely 10 of the best musicians I have heard. Having been a fan of R&B, Soul and Funk for the last 40 years, it was a great experience to see what you guys can deliver. I could have listened to you for another two hours!
