David, thank you
so much for your beautiful solo guitar music at the
rehearsal party on Friday night at McCrady's. I don't think
it could have been better. You gave us just what we hoped
with such a nice flair. We also really appreciated your help planning ahead of time so that the evening went smoothly with your playing for cocktails, moving into the dining room to play (at just the right volume), then back for the after party. Your flexibility with our time frame took away all related stress. It was a great evening for us and our son, and your music set the right tone of elegance and fun. We hope to have a chance to hear you play again soon. Many thanks... The Willards |
