• Your performance at our wedding was sensational! An absolute ripper! The crowd was on their feet jumping up and down for a full three hours – incredible! I have spoken to a number of guests and they all say the same thing – I was sore on Sunday – and that band was great! We had SO much fun it is still hard to accept that the night is over! You guys really made it happen for us and we are forever grateful. Anyone unsure of what to do for entertainment should look no further. We look forward to seeing you guys again and we will certainly be recommending you to our friends and fine establishments that we frequent. Mahalo! -- Tyler R, Weld, ME, 9/17/2011
• My company books over 50 different types of bands for our operating season. Friday Addiction blew every single one of them out of the water. Both my staff, and guests thoroughly loved them. I received personally over 20 different people informing me that I had the best band that they have heard for the Laconia Motorcycle Rally. I would strongly recommend these guys for anything. There versatility and there accommodating nature would make them the perfect fit for any venue or function. I will definitely be contacting these Friday Addiction again to give them more dates for my 2012 operating season. They have defiantly earned New England’s #1 Dance Band. -- Chris S, Laconia, NH, 6/17/2011
• Great musicians, Very professional on stage and off. Great tune selection, and really nice people. Kept the crowd dancing all night. Definitely a band that has big potential playing at any venue! When Customers ask you if they are going to be back, that must be a good thing!! -- Mike P, Salisbury Beach, MA, 1/30/2011
• The group was fantastic! I would be happy to have them back for another event in the future. Our fans loved the music and they were a pleasure to deal with! -- Nicole V, Manchester, NH, 10/16/2010
• Extremely professional and flexible. A pleasure to work with, on all levels, and we look forward to having them back in the future! -- Justin L, Milton, MA, 9/4/2010
• This is an outstanding band that exceeded our expectations. They were very professional in terms of booking, having a clear written agreement, and communicating clearly with us from our first inquiry to the night of the performance. They were flexible in choosing the songs and establishing the break schedule to fit the event. On the night of the performance, they were attentive to the mood of the audience and frequently asked us for input. This is a high-energy band that has a terrific sound and that knows how to entertain an audience. Since the performance, we have received a lot of positive feedback from family and friends. -- Alan & Sue R, Gardner, MA, 5/8/2010
