John G. McLane: One Man Band for Any Occasion

Dear John,

We just wanted to thank you for the wonderful music at our wedding on October 26, 2008. It was one of the things about the day that we will always remember.

Thanks Again, Holly & Jim Woods

Just wanted to thank you for doing such a great job!! Several people have made comments to me about how awesome our music was at the reception! They have also asked if you are available for parties so I hope you don't mind me giving them your info!

-Cristen

We had the coolest Tropical wedding reception in all of Erie, PA. on 7/13/2007. Everyone agreed the music that you played made the event. The pavilion by the lake was nice, the weather was here, the flowers and leis were everywhere, but the sound of your steel drum was what took us all to the islands. Not to mention the "Hot Sax" !
Thanks again for the great time and we'll call you again first chance
we get.

-Mary and Ed Dietz

PS. all the other musicians attending were blown away!

John McLane was SUPERB! When he sang "Crazy Love" he brought tears to my eyes. Please thank him for Ben and I, he was incredible. I told Amanda the following day that if any of her brides ever need a suggestion to go with John. I couldn't have asked for more! (4-13-10)

Thanks again!! Paula

John , I can't begin to thank you for the wonderful job you did at our wedding. You really went with the night. We had more compliments on you. I'm not sure the setting would have been as good without you. Darvin and I have talked about all the comments people have

made. Again, thanks for everything!

-Angela & Darvin

Hi John: Just wanted to say thanks again for such a great job Saturday night. You were great. Everyone was so impressed with you guys, especially Ed, which is exactly the outcome that I wanted. It was perfect.

Oh, when you get a chance will you let me know where you guys play locally?

We'll come and see ya.
