Review Centre: 1980s Era Musicians & Bands

"Wonderful! Gary is a very accomplished guitar player and singer. He gives a heartfelt performance that really engages the audience. Gary performed for our corporate retreat and we really appreciated him for preparing songs especially for our group. He brought an extensive song list and we all picked our favorites. I am amazed at his repertoire. Don't hesitate to book Gary. He's awesome."

"Thank you Dave for making our day so memorable! You took our favourite songs and made them into beautiful classical versions and we could not believe how amazing they sounded as I walked down the aisle! All our guests commented on how wonderful the ceremony was because the music made it so emotional and personal. Thanks again I would thoroughly recommend Dave to anyone. "

"Ian P. Woodbury I’ve been serenaded AND stirred by THE ROCKITS twice in 2022, since being introduced to them only recently. I made a pledge to myself, in the mirror, to go and listen to them whenever I need to satisfy my audio addiction for exceptionally performed, hard driving Rock n Roll. As a guy who has been playing guitar, and singing for an audience since 1956, I continuously need to have my appetite satiated with Good Ol’ Rock n Roll. The Rockits satisfy my need quite satisfactorily! Thank You Very Much! The Rockits share the top shelf of the D.C. Area bands, with only a few other bands up there with them. There is no better party band than The Rockits. The band is well-rehearsed, instrumentally and vocally tight, and they really know how to keep the good vibes topped off at FULL, without losing the personal touch with their audience. Everyone in the band is a seasoned musician, sings very well, and harmonizes on key. But…the vocal standout is Robin Brown, the female vocalist. Robin should be known by everyone in the D. C. Metro Area, who enjoys hip Shakin’ Rock n Roll. ROBIN IS THAT GOOD! She commands the stage, like a Queen, but she is never domineering. She does not try to draw undue attention to herself, but knows her position on stage, as an integral part of a smoothly wild ensemble. She shares the M.C. duties with the band’s leader, Peter Grattan, who is a fine drummer, but in The Rockits, he is a triple threat on keyboards, guitar, and vocals. All the instrumentalists are in the top echelon of local talent, each attuned to his role in the overall mix, and they all shine in their spots. If you want a really satisfying Good Time of listening and dancing, there is no better band, who can lift you higher, than The Rockits. Going out to get your Rock n Roll fix with The Rockets is an evening well-spent. "

Reply by The Rockits
Thank you so very much Ian. We strive to give the best performance possible and it is people like you that make it all worth while. Having been 'Rockits' for over ten years, we appreciate every gig we get, every booking is unique, and having played a 3 year 6 nite a week residency at one of New Zealand's top hotels in my twenties, I know how important it is to 'entertain.' My experience as TVNZ's Head Of Entertainment Production for three years also has given me the experience needed to become an all round entertainer. Years of touring the world on cruise ships, recording four records for CBS and years in London have helped, so that our repertoire of 1000 songs spans sixty years and encompasses the best of the Rock 'n Roll era. Your heart felt review means so much! -Peter G Grattan (band leader)

"Me and my husband were looking for a rock band in Porto to play at our wedding and Patifes e Pilantras were just right for us. We appreciate the fact that they took a few minutes to read the room and adjust their playlist accordingly to the vibe. Everybody loved them, they are incredible artists and we were so lucky to have found them and to have their performance at our wedding! They really made our day extra special and for that we are incredibly grateful! "

"Danny T. West Palm Beach Florida, Feb 3 2024 8:54 AM Just wanted to thank you Mr. Gibson for the wonderful music that God allowed us to hear through you. I’m not even old enough to qualify as a real fan as I’m only 26. However your music touched my father who is a full time pastor at Destiny International Ministries. Loved your music always since I was a young boy and it has influenced me as a music producer. Thank you and God bless."

"You guys are absolutely phenomenal!! We cannot thank you enough. Right from day one, you've been so easy to deal with and made sure everything was perfect. Our wedding guests absolutely loved you, and we've had sooo many amazing comments about how good you were. We are so grateful that you went to the effort of learning our first dance song, and also "teenage kicks" for the benefit of my dad and uncle. Our wedding evening was incredible thanks to you guys, and you certainly know how to get everyone up and dancing!! We will recommend you to everyone! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! "
