Feedback
- I only have one word to discribe Taimoor and his Banf-- FABOLOUS!!! They were professional from start to finish and their sound is spetacular. My husband is a trained Musician and was extrememly impressed with their performance.They performed for our son's wedding reherasl dinner and through their professionalism, attention to detail and musical gifts one would have thought they were performing at Carnegie Hall.My only regret is that now that all of our children are married we will not have a need for another event for them to again perform. You will NOT be dissapointed if you select the Taimoor-Band to perform at your next affair. C. Butler -- Camille B, Washington, DC, 4/29/2011
