• He was a blast to have as a Dj! He knew how to get the party going even on a Sunday night and if not for him I feel the party wouldnt have been as fun as it could have been. I would highly recommend to anyone! -- Danielle D, Charleston, WV, 10/31/2010
• Our party was a huge success and I would certainly hire the same DJ in the future. -- Nicky C, Daniels, WV, 10/30/2010
• Will did a fantastic job all night. He played many of the songs we had on our request list plus played what was keeping everyone on the dance floor. Which with a group of country music lovers and rock/rap lovers was a tough assignment but Cowboy Will kept everyone happy all night....especially my new wife. -- Matt S, Weston, WV, 10/30/2010
• The wedding reception music was great! All our requests were played and we danced all night long! Will was so nice and great to work with. Two thumbs up!!!!! Thank you! -- Megan A, Morgantown, WV, 9/5/2010
• These guys were the best HIGHLY recomended for any one to use, I had so much fun at our wedding , thank you -- Todd C, Bluefield, VA, 7/25/2010
• Originally we were meant to have Will DJ for us and I was very disappointed when I was informed that he could not make it however they had everything taken care of in advance. I didn't have to do a single thing other than book these guys and tell them what I wanted played. Long story short, Scot ended up being our DJ and he was absolutely amazing! There were times when I simply walked up to him and said "this is next" and within minutes it was taken care of! Our reception was a major success thanks to Scot! I would recommend this company to DJ any event, from a birthday party to a wedding! Eternally grateful! Thanks again, Monica and Geoffery -- Monica D, Summersville, WV, 5/1/2010
• Will was absolutely fantastic! He truly helped make our wedding a night to remember! He used our requests and his expertise to get guests dancing. We couldn't recommend him more! -- Lauren E, Morgantown, WV, 3/27/2010
• It was great! -- Kerri W, Lynco, WV, 4/24/2010
• I can't say enough good things about Abe One Entertainment. Will Schumate was very easy to deal with, and extremely professional. Our DJ, Scott, bent over backwards to make sure our event was a success. We were asking for a lot, and Abe One Entertainment delivered in spades. I will definitely hire them again. -- Ryan H, Charleston, WV, 12/13/2008
• I would encourage everyone to talk with Abe One about working your event. If you shop around, you'll find that their prices are the best. They were so accommodating throughout the entire process, understanding that change is always a part of event planning. The DJs worked so hard to find all the music we requested, both for dancing and karaoke. And they have the largest collection of karaoke music I've ever seen. If they don't have, I don't think it exists. Our DJ was easy going, so much fun and displayed the utmost professionalism throughout the entire event. FANTASTIC! If you have questions, you can contact me at: ShelbySue13@aol.com -- Susan A, Roanoke, VA, 10/18/2008

• Abe One had the tunes our crowd wanted to hear, and kept things moving throughout the evening. The one tune we wanted that they didn't have, they downloaded on the spot and played for us.

• Will was very easy to work with as we were planning the event. He was very professional and definately had that "DJ" voice. Once the event started, he did a very good job in handling the audience and the changes that we threw at him without a mis-step. The music that was played and the "games" that he threw together helped make our event a success. Again he is someone that I would use again and would also recommend Will to others. -- Yoke C, Sanford, NC, 12/11/2009
• WILL SHUMATE WAS FEELING IT ALL NIGHT. OUR CROWD HAD A GREAT TIME. HE GOT THE CROWD ROCKING AND THEY ROCKED ALL NIGHT LONG. THANX WILL!! -- Alliancne Consulting, Inc. K, Beckley, WV, 12/12/2009
