Rock Ceilidh Band
"Thank you . It was such a great night and the dancing was great. I loved that we opened the doors at the end ( for the amount of dancers that got up for the Strip the Willow). I think we might need a bigger venue next year it was such a success. The band was fabulous, I'll be keeping you in mind for other gigs."
