CLIENT TESTIMONIALS:
Straight Shooter was a blast!!! Being from Manhattan,
KS there wasn't alot of live bands to choose from and we picked
Straight Shooter from the LONG list of songs they play and their
overall ratings.Their list of songs is extremely extensive and ranges
into something that EVERYONE likes to dance to. They kept the party
moving way after the my (new!) husband and I did-and everyone is
still talking about them!! Their music was great, they sounded amazing
(I never heard them live until the night of the wedding)!!! This
is the one that will leave you with no doubts when you book them,
and will amaze you with their talent at your function!!! Thanks
Straight Shooter!!!

Completely and utterly delighted with the entire
evening. Jim Duggins was in constant contact with me before the
dance...always asking if I wanted special songs. They are the BEST...They
played a wide varity of songs with great enthusiasm, their love
of music shows in the bands attitude. It was so wonderful to find
a band that fit such a diverse crowd....Our wedding dance was unforgettable.(even
did a drum roll when I threw the bouquet) If you are lucky enough
to have them play for you I have no doubt you will be as pleased
as I am. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!!!

This band couldn't have been more perfect for our
wedding reception! Theses guys were full of energy, fun, and, enthusiasm!
They were most accommodating and flexible, traveling more than 4
hours just to play for our reception. The entire band was professional
and punctual as well as engaging and entertaining. They even went
so far as to learn a new song for our first dance! The guests still
rave about how much fun they had dancing to such great music. Straight
Shooter go above and beyond to play a variety of music and take
requests from guests; there's a little something for everyone. The
band made our night perfect, and was a highlight of our reception.
The music and dancing kept us at the reception even longer than
we expected. We certainly wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for
any occasion and we would use them again in a heartbeat! We are
so grateful to the Straight Shooter for making ours an event to
remember!"
Thanks again!

These guys are great; they were lively, upbeat,
and fun. When they say “country western band” they go
much beyond that. They may get a lot of their inspiration from country,
but they extend their music much further. They are easy to work
with, very professional and timely. Straight Shooters made our special
day one we will never forget. All of our friends and family (young
and older) loved them. They are still talking about the experience
a month after the event. The band even took song requests from the
crowd, and let my father sing a song with their sound equipment
and let one of my bridesmaids sing karaoke with them playing in
the background. Book with Straight Shooters, you will not regret
it. They are so much fun and will make your event one to remember!

Straight Shooter made the night at my wedding.
I had a smaller reception with only about 55 guests. I was worried
no one would dance in a group that small, especially considering
many of my guests were quite a bit older. Well I needn't have worried,
we danced for hours right up until the band was scheduled to quit
at 11 PM. The band learned a new song (Willie Nelson's Blue Skies)
just so that my Dad and I could dance to it together. It was really
a wonderful time and I got so many compliments on the band. If you
like classic rock, or classic country you absolutely cannot beat
having this band at your event. I'm sure they do well in some other
genres, but at my wedding this music hit the spot! The band is very
talented, and at times I felt they were even better than the original
artists. My Dad was also thrilled to hear them play the Beer Song
(their own composition), which he had learned from their website.
I really liked their special marriage version of Fulsom Prison Blues.
Great job guys! --Linda M. Eureka Springs, AR 3/3/2007

Well I couldnt have booked a more appropriate band.
The crowd was very pleased and we are actually booking them for
another event. We had about 120 guests and they all complimented
on how great the band was. They were alot of fun and we all really
enjoyed ourselves. Thank you Straight Shooter for making our Christmas
Party so much fun. They are awesome!!!

StraightShooter were absolutely fantastic - we would
recommend them to anybody who wanted to hire them for a wedding.
Nothing was too much to ask of them and they did more than we could
have ever expected, and at an unbelievably good price. They turned
up early to get set up (1:30pm for a wedding starting at 5:00pm)
as we had asked if we could use their sound system during the ceremony.
They also stayed and chatted to the groom during the build up to
the ceremony and kept him calm by telling him stories and anecdotes.
When the music got going they played the perfect mix of slow songs
and rocking tunes so that there was something for everyone and a
great atmosphere, and were never too loud or too quiet. They really
made the wedding and joined in with the food, made a toast to the
bride and groom and even used some of the disposable cameras we
had left out for people to take pictures of the wedding from the
front of the venue! You couldn't ask to meet a nicer group of guys
and we would hire them again in a heart beat for any future event
we may organize. Simon & Amy Bagnall
If you want to use us as a reference then we would recommend you
to anyone - we can be reached on this email or on my cell
214-450-2917.
Thanks again for everything.

We appreciate every one of you in the band and all
that you and your families do for us! The Lt. Governor and all of
us and the guests have enjoyed hearing your band play and look forward
to the next time.
We are not sure where the watch party will be, but hopefully it
will be at a place that we can have the band.
I will be in touch and thanks again for all you have done!!
Thanks,
Ashley

We hired Straight Shooter for our wedding April 22, 2006. They
were fantastic. Their professionalism and musicianship is top notch.
Jim and the guys were accommodating with taking requests from the
guests and everyone left raving about the band. We were thoroughly
impressed with the quality of their music. We recommend Straight
Shooter for anyone who wants to have good music and good times at
their event. Thanks guys. Jeff amd Hillary

The Straight Shooters recently entertained at a customer appreciation
event in our small rural community. About 150 persons attended for
our bank's fall hot dogs and ice cream social. The band came early
and was set up well in time to begin entertaining at the designated
time. We opened the fire department building doors for their stage,
but there wasn't air conditioning; only a small oscillating fan.
The quality and beauty of the music was incredible! Their music
followed our event theme (50's music) very well, but they were willing
to add other types of music upon request. They were relaxed and
every note was perfect. Even our teens and children were impressed.
We were certainly honored to host these music professionals. I would
recommend them without reservation to all.

I was excited to hire Straight Shooter for my mom's 50th birthday
party. They play the kind of music she absolutely loves and did
a great job entertaining her and the croud. They had everything
set up and ready to go on time, and were extremely professional
from the moment they started until the time they finished! They
are a great group of guys and were alot of fun to have at our event.
Thanks for everything!!!

Dear friends of Straight Shooter,
Thank you so much for the great performance and music at my election
night parties. Everyone loved your band and the music added a "special
touch" of fun to the evening. I am very grateful for your friendship
and support!
Look forward to seeing you again soon.
God Bless,
Mary
Jim – I wanted to thank Straight Shooters for the wonderful
time your band provided us at our company picnic. Everyone enjoyed
the music and your friendly-interactive band members. We are definitely
looking forward to our next picnic coupled with your band. This
was the first time we have hired a “live band” to play
during our picnic and everyone was extremely happy with the results.
Thank you again for contributing to our huge success at our 2006
picnic.
Respectfully,
