"Erastus, what can I say.  One of the most entertaining and fun party classic rock and roll bands to come along in a long time.  George and the rest of the band is very professional: play to the crowd and the occasion.  I know first-hand, I follow them during festival season.  I have been a guest at weddings where they have performed and most-recently they took their crazy fun band to the Scarlet & Grey Café in Columbus for The Ohio State Buckeyes and "that team up north" Game Day Saturday: One of the best Saturday Game Days of all time.  I will be looking forward to seeing this great band soon.  Guys keep up the great work. Keep a rockin!!!!!!" -- Gary Bruns, former part-owner of Scarlet & Grey Café, Columbus, OH / Owner of The Mister Shoppe, Coldwater, OH
