Feedback

  • The Trip was awesome! They worked with us every step of the way and were a huge hit at the reception. We only wish we had more time in the venue so we could have partied with the band longer. Thanks guys! -- Lloyd A, Malibu, CA, 10/18/2009
  • This was the most fantastic wedding band! After the first dance and the father-daughter dance, the guests literally flooded the dance floor and did not stop dancing until the party ended. They were so so so fun. My mother literally asked the hotel if they were sure we wouldn't break through the dance floor because the room was basically shaking. Also, they can play really different types of music very very well. I would hire them again without hesitation. Also, they were just easy to work with. They answered the phone whenever I called and were very helpful when the hotel made them set up very early at the last minute. Thanks so much!!! -- Annie W, Tahoe City, CA, 8/15/2009
  • The TRIP was awesome. They are a great group of guys to work with and party with. Sarah and I really enjoyed having them as a wedding band. We got lots of compliments from the guests and partied the night away with them. I would definitely recommend hiring them. They handled all of our requests and worked really well with our wedding coordinator. Thanks guys for making our wedding great. All the best. Matt and Sarah -- Matt M, Dana Point, CA, 10/10/2009
  • The Tripp was great and I'd recommend to anyone for any occasion! They're great guys, very friendly, easy to work with, and very flexible. They learned extra songs just for our wedding, and their ability to read the crowd and flex the songlist to keep the party going ensured that everyone had a great time the whole time! I got comments the entire night from everyone from every age group how great the band was. Their skill level is very high, and I couldn't be happier with choosing the Tripp for my wedding; they performed flawlessly. -- Jeff H, San Diego, CA, 7/3/2009
  • These guys were fantastic. Professional, talented and FUN! We have had this summer party for seven years and everyone commented that The Trip was by far the Best Band we have had! Loved them! We plan on having them back next year. Thanks Guys! -- Tiffany M, San Diego, CA, 7/25/2009
  • The Trip were fantastic and we wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to others, as well as booking them again for any future event we hold. They made our wedding when it came time for dancing, a rocking event. They were a delight to deal with and very accomodating. We would classify them as a highly talented group of musicians who demonstrated a complete command over every song they played. We received many compliments from our guests about The Trip and heard over and over again how it was the best music anyone had ever experienced at a wedding. Thanks again to The Trip and we look forward to having them again at one of our parties! Polly & Chris 06/13/09 -- Polly M, Carmel, CA, 6/13/2009
  • The guest at our wedding had a fabulous time. I have never seen my family and friends dance so much. Thanks for an awesome performance. I recommend them to everyone!! -- Leanne M, Carlsbad, CA, 9/19/2009
  • Our guests loved the TRIP! We requested a song that was not on the playlist for our first dance, and the Trip played the song marvelously! The highlight of the party was when they let my brother play guitar and me and a friend take a crack at vocals. The band also was able to improvise well as they played in a smaller space than they were accustomed. -- Eddy H, Santa Monica, CA, 9/12/2009
  • The Trip was one of the highlights of our night. They kept us dancing the whole night. People not only raved about the band at the wedding, but we've gotten tons of messages about how great the band was. They are incredibly talented, have an amazing range of songs and voice. We'll book the band again for sure! -- Gary B, Irvine, CA, 7/11/2009
  • After having The Trip play at our wedding, I can see why they are the #1 requested band on Gigmasters! They left our group of 120 wanting more. They learned new songs we requested, played the songs we wanted, and downloaded tunes we asked to have available onto an MP3 player for music during the break (although they never took one...we were having too much fun!!). My only regret is we started the dancing too late. When you book the Trip, get the band started early!! These guys rock the house! Can't wait for our next party with the Trip. -- Brian N, San Diego, CA, 6/27/2009
  • The Trip exceeded all of our expectations! Not only were they BEYOND talented, they were so nice and personable.I can't wait to book The Trip again!They made our event! All the best, Pam Beeks -- Pam B, Santa Monica, CA, 6/6/2009
  • The Trip was Great! They had a smaller space to work with than they are accustomed to, but totally made it work ! They fit right into the celebration and were the hit of the party ! -- Karen E, Huntington Beach, CA, 5/31/2009
  • The Trip is an amazing band! My guests had a great time dancing to their music all night long. Three people from my wedding want to use them for other events. They are fun, professional and talented. They rocked my wedding! Thanks guys! - Alexis, San Diego -- Alexis A, San Diego, CA, 5/23/2009
  • The Trip made our 40th bash SO much fun! Absolutely everybody loved the band and at certain points, the entire party was on the dance floor! No one could stop talking about how great the band was. Thank you for making our party so much fun for everyone! -- Karin & Dave M, San Clemente, CA, 5/24/2009
  • The TRIP was incredible. I truly cannot say enough positive things about them. I had SO much fun at my wedding and danced the night away-as did all my guests-which is EXACTLY what I had hoped for. They made our wedding so much fun and I received endless compliments from such a wide range of ages and personalities on how great the band was. It was the best money we spent. -- Kersten M, Oceanside, CA, 5/9/2009
  • Its obvious why The Trip is the number one band on gigmasters,these guys are awesome.They are not only very talented musicians,but professional,reliable,easy to contact,and best of all way cool peeps.They played at our wedding,and EVERYONE loved them.Dance floor was never empty.If your asking yourself,(like I did)"Will these guys be really as good as everyone says they are,or will they be too hard rock to cater to everyone regardless of age"Don't worry,they're perfect for any occasion you'd possibly imagine.Oh yeah,they also learned 'Faithfully'-Journey,for our first dance,and nailed it.Im trying to think of another party to have,just so I could book them again. -- Mary S, San Diego, CA, 5/1/2009
