| "Thank you so much for playing an awesome set at our wedding last week. You guys were brilliant and thanks for letting my husband serenade me..... I was looking round for the karaoke screen, couldn't believe he'd learnt it for the night!!! You made everything really easy, great set list to choose from and the fact that your drummer has video'ed it is such an added bonus. We'd definitely recommend you, in fact the wedding organiser has taken your details for her brother's wedding. Thanks again." |

You were very professional, you sounded great, and you were excellent value for money, even sending us some photos that you took at the event.

"I booked Tourguide for my boyfriends Suprise 30th and I thought they were fantastic! I asked them in advance if they would be able to play some Stone Roses songs and they learnt a few songs especially for the night which I thought was brilliant. The theme was Black & White and the band even dressed appropriately for the night. Lots of people commented on how good they were and what a great set list! They even sent me a few photos of the party that they had taken from the stage of everyone dancing - really nice touch and appreciated because I'd forgotten my camera! Thanks for a great evening lads, glad you enjoyed the food!" |

| “Tourguide were an excellent band for our formal staff party at Manchester City Football club. Maintained regular contact prior to the event, were accommodating to our requests of using their equipment for our own use (microphone for speeches etc) and dressed appropriately for our style for the evening. They played a wide selection of songs that kept the dance floor full and dancing till the end – the night ended too early as could have danced for a good while longer! There was a wide selection of people at the event, and they catered to all tastes. Two separate guests are even looking to book the band for their weddings – so will certainly be seeing you again!” | - Claire Roberts, Staff Party, Manchester City Football club, June '07 |
"Great bunch of lads (and lady). The dance floor was packed all night - the band catered for everyone. Thanks for learning/playing our requests (and letting Mike loose on the drums for a bit!). Perfect end to the day. Book this band now - they ROCK!" |
- Mike and Sarah, Wedding, The Hey Green Hotel, Marsden, West Yorkshire, May '07 |
