To whom it may concern:

I have seen the Roaring Forties play on many occasions in the last couple of years. They never fail to delight, irrespective of the type of audience they have. We used them in Glandore during the Glandore Classic Regatta and the combination of a pig roast and George and the Gang, was dynamite.

They turned up on time, gave great value, and huge enjoyment. We will certainly use them again.
