Dear Gary,

Please accept this long overdue letter of thanks to you and THE BAND for helping make our Manhattan East Suite Hotels holiday party a complete success.

The energy your band exudes is truly infectious and their ability to get the crowd going from the very beginning was impressive. Playing for a crowd of over 700 ranging in age from 19 to 70 is a challenge in itself but when you factor in the ethnic backgrounds from Latino to Polish your work is really cut out for you!! The band's ability to continually entertain such a diverse group was very much appreciated by our managing partners. Their main objective in bringing in live entertainment was to make everyone feel like a part of the event. The Philadelphia Funk Authority made that happen and we appreciate your talent and professionalism.

Please check your schedule for next year. We'd love a repeat performance!!!!!!!

Sincerely,
Mark Hurewitz
General Manager
