- The Bodkin Band was wonderful!!! The song choices were perfect for the event. The band obviously enjoys playing and the auduence thoroughly enjoyed the music. A lot of toe tapping, hand waving and head nodding was going on. The experience couldn't have been better! -- Jean S, Massillon, OH, 8/13/2008
