I do like DJ's because there is nothing like the original artist singing and they can play a nice mix. Bands are great too though just will pass on karoke

I want to give an endorsement to Carol Ann. She sounds just like Reba McIntyre. Very enjoyable.

I hired Brian Carl to play at what I called a "hello" party for my mom on Mother's Day weekend so she could see all her friends and say hello before we all had to say goodbye, as she was on hospice. I had about 50 people at my house. It was a catered event with hired help. We moved furniture and got the birdcage ready for Brian. He never showed and never called and had voice mail on his phone that he would not pick up or return calls. He did not contact me until the next day. This was a very special occasion for my mom as she was very frail, it took two of us to help her in the house. I was devastated. One of the few things she loved was entertainment and I trusted Brian to show up. It was my last gift to her.

Well there was no entertainment and my mom passed last week.

I think that says it all.

oh that broke my heart. There are some things in life that we just do not get to do over....this was one of them.

I am so very very sorry he did not show up and please accept my deepest and heartfelt condolences in the loss of your precious mother.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I read your article in the online newspaper.
I found it very touching, probably because I went through exactly the same hospice experience with my mom.
I'm so sorry Brian Carl didn't show up when he was booked for such an important occasion.
Your mom was lucky to have such a wonderful daughter in her corner.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Please know your mom knew and felt your love. The actions of the entertainer were inexcusaable.
