CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Beyond the Pale was a great band! My wife and I had a wonderful experience during our wedding due to the band's efforts. The band traveled from 5 hours from Dallas in order to perform for us. The performers were more than accommodating. They assisted in the ceremony with their sound equipment and last minute itinerary changes, for example, when my sister-in-law asked if she could sing accompanied by the band.
Again, we had an overall outstanding experience with this band.

Beyond The Pale asked us what we wanted from this program. When we explained that the we wanted an interactive program they responed by teaching Celtic dances which the whole audience participated in. The Celtic music that was played using a variety of instruments was amazing. The following is a sampling of the results from a survey of the program: Excellent, Great, Enjoyed the music,fun,I love the band,I enjoyed the music and learning the dances,great program.
We would not hesitate to invite Beyond The Pale back for future programs.

Gordon McLeod was great. I would highly recommend him. Your service helped me locate him quickly and I appreciate it. The only glitch I ran into, and it was temporary, is that his wife told me she knew nothing about his offer to help me and she thought a mistake had been made. Gordon was in Florida at the time and had responded from there without her knowledge. The matter was cleared up in less than a day.
