We appreciate all of
the feedback that our audience and
performers have for
the Rehoboth Beach Bandstand. Here
are some comments that some of you have
said about the performances:
"The concerts are so great - what a great job you
all are doing!!"
"It was a wonderful year! Thank you for the awesome
and fun summer entertainment. I will miss you and summer very much until
next year!"
"Here's proof that the bandstand brings in big money
into the city, keep up the great work!"
"Who ever was the band who played last night - Sunday? OMG - They had us
dancing in the streets. Were awesome. Thanks!"
"We liked last Saturday night's show - those funky groove guys were great!"
"Thanks for the wonderful entertainment you're
providing. We drove from Dover Fri, Sat, and Sun to specifically hear the
music. And of course for dinner and snacks and to be near the beach. Our
favorite band was Friday night oldies. Their outfits were neat, too. Of
course the oldies are the best. Thanks again and keep up the fantastic work
you're doing for us."
"I just wanted take a moment to sincerely thank you
for the opportunity to play your Summer Concert Series, it truly was a
pleasure. A beautiful night, a great crowd, a comfortable dressing room on a
hot day, an excellent sound man, and an accessible stage all made for a
perfect evening. I have to commend you on how easy you make it to load-in
and load-out and park for the show, rarely do venues give such consideration
to artists, and I wanted you to know it was appreciated. You have a
smoothly-run operation from top to bottom and I commend you for making it
all so easy."
"Great communication, great crowd, great gig. The
bandstand is right on the beach. Great scenery. Would recommend submitting."
"Loved everything about this gig. Great venue, great crowd, beautiful
location, so incredibly easily accessible for load-in and load out. Sold a
ton of CDs. The sound guy was great to work with, and I definitely expanded
my fan base in that area. Great dressing room with air-conditioning on a
very hot day. I give this gig a 10 out of 10 without a doubt. I'd love to
come back a play here again. Absolutely."
"I just wanted to send you a much appreciated Thank
You on behalf of myself and the other members of Tres Compadres for giving
us the opportunity to perform at this years concert series @ Rehoboth
Bandstand. Everyone had a great time! You guys run a top notch operation
down there, it was a real pleasure, continue the good work. We'd be honored
if you keep us in mind for any future events. Have a good rest of the
summer!"
"Cello Fury rocks. Awesome. Nothing beats FREE
entertainment except when its free and EXCELLENT!"
"PHENOMENAL! Possibly the best show we've ever seen at the bandstand & we've
seen many great ones. FANTASTIC!"
"Thank you so much for all your help with our Easter
Sun Rise Service. ... Your sound man was incredibly helpful, had already
started the process when I got there at 6am!! It was as though he was
reading my mind!!! Every time I said, “we need…” he either had it in his
hands or was just going to get it. When I thanked him for all his efforts
his response was, “I’m just doing my job.” He was great!!!! Compliments to
you and your staff for an excellent job, well done!! I think the City of
Rehoboth Beach made a wonderful impression on the large crowd of visitors
that we had gathered to celebrate with us."
"We also thought that this year's ceremony was the
best yet --- multiple acts and more energy, fun and laughter on stage than
ever before."
"The sound for an outdoor concert at the bandstand
is amazing."
"With Corey Groll working to bring a diverse program
of entertainment to town, the crowds keep growing. The combination of local,
military and well-known bands has set a new bar for quality entertainment at
the bandstand."
"Great event and great staff/crew to work with.
Professionally run and professional treatment from top to bottom. Beautiful
area with great, built-in crowds. Highly recommend attempting to get into
this event."
"When an institution like the Rehoboth Beach
Bandstand steps up its game, it really means something. The Bandstand has
ushered in a huge selection of great, free, local music lately, from
national acts to our favorite local performers."
"We had a great time at the Bandstand. The band was
awesome and our kids had a blast dancing around on stage."
"Great venue! Nice people to work with! Right on the
beach...we had lots of fun!"
"My partner and I really enjoy all the events and
happenings in downtown Rehoboth Beach. The bandstand has really brought the
community and tourists together to enjoy the town & the beach for what it
is, just a great place! We certainly hope that Rehoboth Beach lasts
forever so it can be enjoyed for generations, we love it!
Rehoboth Beach, Room For All!"
"You continue to do a wonderful job in these
difficult times. You somehow manage to keep the town fresh and new but at
the same there is a feeling of real old fashion home town wonder. We were
there for the tree lighting ceremony and the horse and buggy rides (what a
nice idea) for the Holidays. Thank you for all your efforts and for keeping
the magic in the Holiday season. Our family was there visiting and they
could not believe how festive and welcoming it was.
We look forward to all the local activities and continue to brag to our
friends of the wonderful place we live.
Thanks again and keep up the good work."
"Schedule just keeps getting better and better! This
summer season just ended was so entertaining and diverse. ... Once again,
thanks for a terrific season and for making Rehoboth Beach a very special
place to visit."
"Although we live in Maryland, we have a place in RB
and spend a lot of time there. The concerts are a favorite...congrats on
another great season! We really enjoyed the entertainment. You do a great
job!"
"The entire season has been a lot of fun. Thanks for
your hard work."
"Lots of great things at the bandstand and we don't
want to miss any."
"Just had to send you a note regarding the band who
played in the Bandstand Saturday night. They were AWESOME! They had the
whole crowd up and jumping, they invited anyone to come on stage and dance,
including the kids. My family was visiting us from North Jersey for the
weekend and they were impressed with our town and what it brings to summer.
It made our evening so much fun. They are very entertaining and the
energetic. We really did enjoy them and thanks for continuing to provide the
best bands possible."
"You did a masterful job of programming a wide
variety of musical events! I enjoyed every one that I attended! An evening
at the band shell during the summer is one of the highlights of my year.
Thanks for all that you do to provide this wonderful opportunity to the
Rehoboth Beach community!"
"My husband and I attended the Army Band and Chorus
on this past Saturday night. What a wonderful performance! Thank you! We
will also be in the area for the Diamonds. We can’t wait. Thanks again for
all you do."
"Great program, something for everyone!"
"I have to tell you that it meant so much to SO many
of our friends and family who traveled far and wide to see us! Many of these
people had never heard the band and really had a great time. We also had
some local musician friends who came out to see us. They said that the sound
was excellent out front. Kudos to you!"
"I hope we have an opportunity to perform next year. Enjoy the rest of your
summer!"
"Thanks for the great selection of events this
season, as always! It takes a lot to coordinate and schedule all this, and
we sure appreciate all the hard work that goes into it. And also, I've said
it before, but it bears repeating since it is on the same subject - the web
site and calendar are fantastic."
"One of my favorite parts of living in Rehoboth is
the shows at the Bandstand!! We might as well cancel our cable now, expect
to attend a lot of shows this year!!"
"What an awesome schedule! We're really happy to see
not only the nice variety of types of music; but also all the new
entertainers you are bringing to Rehoboth Bandstand! Anxious for them to
start and thanks again for all the time you have put into such a fine summer
schedule."
"I just want to take this time to thank you for all
the entertainment you provide and the hard work that proceeds such a
undertaking. I did so much enjoy the venues that I saw but better yet to be
afforded the opportunity is a blessing."
"Thank you for all you do! ... You put together an
excellent program."
"Thanks for all the work you put into these concerts! We are so lucky here
in Rehoboth Beach to have these free performances to enjoy. Good luck as you
begin scheduling for 2008. GREAT JOB!"
"It was the best [year] yet!"
"Thanks for all your hard working making this a
successful bandstand season."
"Thank you for all the good shows ... I've seen many. I'm looking forward to
next year."
"THANKS for a GREAT summer concert series!"
"I keep hearing from a lot of people (and I've
experienced it myself) how great the bandstand shows are and how large the
crowds are that the shows are drawing. My grandmother, who is in her 80s, has
raved about each show she's been to. She hasn't been to as many shows in recent
years as she has just this summer! She thinks the new bandstand is wonderful and
that "the young man" emceeing is very good."
"I recently came back from spending 6 days and nights at
Rehoboth. I was delighted to sit on the white benches, eating caramel corn, and
watching a film for "every age," with two important messages. After the show was
finished, I went around thanking everyone who I thought might be connected with
putting on this film. Thank you for this opportunity. I hope to come back again
to Rehoboth."
"It's obvious that you
guys put a lot of time and effort into
making the bandstand entertainment fun
and enjoyable for all ages. We
appreciate the lively activity
available. It certainly is a draw in
having tourists come to support the
local stores and restaurants."
"We LOVE your band
shell! When I first saw it, I wasn't
sure how it would work for sound.
However, it was fantastic! My wife and
some friends in the audience also said
the sound was really good, that we were
easy to hear. Not a mean feat,
considering the strong wind coming in
off the ocean."
"So, from a member of the band, thank
you, thank you, thank you. I've been a
member of the band for nearly 24 years,
and I don't know if I can remember a
concert I enjoyed more."
"It has been a real
treat and have enjoyed every minute of
it ..thank you so much for giving the
public something to look forward to
without cost. Everything costs so much
now a days it's hard to enjoy life.
Again, thank you."
"I think you are doing a great job.
We live here and this has been our
first year of almost regular
attendance."
"I can't tell you how much we love
the bandstand."
"Quite good selections
at the bandstand and enjoying the
entertainment immensely. The new
bandstand is awesome."
"You are highly commended for
providing family entertainment
throughout... Thank you! Keep up the
good work."
"How festive it looked at Christmas!
In fact, the whole town looked so
beautiful during the Christmas
season, great job!!"
"You do a great job
with the new bandstand."
"Just wanted to tell you this web site is great ... Thank you for all that you
are doing. It's going to be a great summer at the bandstand!"
"How wonderful that the
Bandstand now has this beautiful web
site. Thank you!"
"Thanks for the concert schedule, and the variety of ways to print it! There is a nice diversity of music in store for us, and we look forward to seeing all these concerts and you as well."

improvement!"

individual people are great!"

one despite all the trepidations of some
of last years' performers."
