HIT
N RUN (Guest Book - PG 9) Send
us a comment to post
Hey,
Hit N Run is the heartbeat of the whole place. You keep
the whole crowd
pumping. I always look forward to the next show.
I know I've found
the best band in Buffalo. I feel as if I've found my rock
and roll family,
except I'll see you guys at the Fete's and not the "picnics".
Monet
I
want to send you some song suggestions. What about "There's
no one like
you" from Scorpians or Stuck in the Middle with you by Steelers Wheel?
Emily
Just
wanted to drop you a note and say I saw you out at Desidarios.
It was a nice to see a female sing with you. I can't
remember her name but she was awesome. I checked your
web site to find her but she is not listed.
I was wondering if this was a one time thing or is she with
the band?
Keep up the good work.

We
had a great time on Saturday! We had 2 tables on the
wall near the stage.
We got pretty wild (even w/out the Pen girls there!) In
fact, 6 people
who came were hearing HNR for the first time & they
loved you guys!
We will definitely be back again next year. By the
way, LOVED the
new songs! What a blast! My 0nly request is
for some U2!
Gina
About
8 girls from the Buffalo News were at Queen of Heaven on
Sat and they
told me all about it. They said it was great as well. The
view must be
great from the top.
Ken K
Wonderful
show again last night (Queen of Heaven Fundraiser)--you
have molded
together a great group. Wish you played the earlier
hours all the
time. Hit and run is better now than one year ago. Your
drummer sure does
a great job---he seems like he enjoys what he is doing.
Bernie (St John Vianney)
Hello,
I am contacting you for a show in Clarence, NY. We are wondering if
your schedule is free for May 29th, 2006. What would your
fee be for 4 hrs. of play? We do get a pretty good
crowd that day? In case of Rain, we do have an indoor
covered pavillion that is very large, complete with electric.
Please let me know asap. I was referred to you from XXXXX XXXXX
from Alden, where you play for St. Johns events in the summer.

Gratwick
Hose Co. will be having a field day this year on June 9,10,
& 11th
and we need to know if your available on the 9th or the
10th
Harry
Hi,
We are looking for a band for our wedding reception. We
have a date of
June 30 Friday evening. We would like to find out what you
charge for an
evening to play for us to enjoy. Thank you
Steve C
Hi!
My friends and I just wanted to tell you guys how much fun
we have whenever
we have the chance to come see Hit N Run. What more could
one ask
for than to hear Mark sing, "Save A Horse, Ride A Cowboy"?
We really
enjoyed that! We agree that an outfit to go along
with the song would
be awesome!! YEE-HAA!! --You should own at least 1
table you can dance
on!
Brenda
I
have to say, I am much more impressed with Hit n Run.
Rock, blues, country...
I love it all, I love the new sound! I will be out soon...
I have
just been a bit tied up with school. I started back
this semester for
my MBA.
Pen Girl
To
all our fans - Just a quick THANK YOU for supporting us
these past few months. I know I speak for the rest
of the band when I say we are having the time of our
collective lives. It continues to be a huge thrill
when you all come out and pack the dance floor; it really
makes us want to work and play that much harder. To
all the Club Owners - Thanks a million for making us
feel at home in your establishments. The support and
kindnesses you have given HnR are so very appreciated. To all
the event coordinators - Thanks for picking HnR to be the entertainment
at your special party, I know we'll all work extra hard
to make it special. And to my bandmates - I hope that
you're still OK w/ me lugging that old B3 around 'cause
when the drums are poundin' and the bass is thumping,
the guitars are blazing and the vocals are soaring, that
old Hammond is singing her heart out for ya and all together
we're making
some real good music. Rock on!
Bruce Decker
Are
the rumors true?!?!?! Is Kelly Wahl now a bonifide
member of HitNRun??
I have looked at the website to verify this information
and I see
nothing. I called Dan Rathers people, but after his bad
reporting on the
Bush scandal a couple years ago, they were all mum.
How is it that this
angel of a voice is part of your group and there isn't fanfare? ticker
tape? Even the Wal-Mart on Transit had a Grand Opening
when they put
the subway in and that wasn't nearly as exciting. Even Liz's
muted background
singing and Daryl's "airdrums" get more photo ops on the site. What
gives??
Peter T
Hey
Mark, Please tell Brian I said Thank You for the Birthday wish.......who
ever he is (never met him, I don't think). Any way...... a
great BIG thank you to all of you guys for making my birthday
honestly the very best one i ever had in all my life!!!
I will remember it forever and always. Too funny!!
Oh and i lost B.O.B. (BATTERY OPERATED BOYFRIEND)
he's MIA. Maybe he got covered in silly string. You
guys got me sooooooooooooo good, I never had
a clue about anything. Now that... was how to
raise a little hell. You're learnin!! We'll
break you guys in to barbie land one way or another.
I do hope the band had just
as much fun, it felt like it by the BLASTS of silly string.
The pictures
are just to die for. I printed them out and hung them
up atwork
so when I'm stressed i look over and crack up. They
all must think I'm
nuts with the constant giggles. The best part is no
matter where i walked
or turned i was silly stringed so i had no choice but to
stay still
and yell " UNCLE? MERCY?" I was coated in layers and couldn't
see someone
had to poke a hole around my face at the end....how funny
is that?
Any ways thank you all i wouldn't of wanted to celebrated
it any other
way but with all my friends and my friends in the best band
in WNY!!
P.S Don't tell but I'm only 25 again luv birthdays don't
u?
Darylann
Ticket
sales have been great, around 340 sold, with a week to go
for the Queen
of Heaven party. Your sound man can get in anytime on Saturday.
I am
afraid that I may have to turn back people for going over
capacity.
Terry
Can
you check Hit n Runs calendar and see if we can add 3/17
and 5/27 (to
the existing shows those months)? We would like to get 2
shows per month,
if possible.
Sue (Club Paradise)
You
were awesome as always on Friday night. We had a great
time and wanted
to say Happy Birthday to Barbie! YOU GUYS ROCK and are SO
much more
musically talented. We really enjoy coming out to see you
now more than
ever!!!!
Brian K
Can
you email me the details on the Saturday show?
Geri
I
just wanted to say that I heard you perform Big N Rich-
Save a horse, ride
a cowboy.... AWESOME!! Excellent job!!!
Jen
As
a fan of yours, I just want to voice my opinion if you do
not mind. I have
been a fan of Mark Valentino, Hit n' Run since I have seen
you play for
the first time at Macaroon's in the fall time of 2001 and
followed you
ever since. I am very displeased to hear some former band
members bad
mouth Hit n' Run to your fans at Evolution this past Friday
night. Again,
that is not very classy of them.
Nancy M
I
wanted to say I like the new shirts, but "I" want one w/
"Mark's" picture
on it....like the one on the website where he's pointing
at us!!!!
You guys did a few new songs this w/e.... excellent!!
Loved "getting
lost in your rock and roll and drift away"!!!! :]
Aubrey
Hey
you. I have to tell you, some friends of mine had a "girls
night out" and they took their daughters, 2 weekends
ago they went to see the male dancers, they decided
to stay for the band, I think they were more impressed
with you? They loved the band, but it's you who could "wrinkle their
sheets" any time. How funny is that? I here you, well
lets just say I missed quite the show. They will
be back and expecting the same song and "dance".
I told them to email your web site? You would love to hear
what they have to say. Oh and the one big question, is he
married? Hummm.
A
I
am managing a new nightclub in the southtowns called xxxxxxxxx.
We are looking
for top name bands in the area to play. The bar area is
very large
with a dancefloor. I would appreciate a reply to talk about bookings
and prices. Thank you.
JD xxx-xxxx
Mark,
you have a great band. Perhaps, in the future we can
get together.
Have a great day - P.J.
PJ - Scottys Pit Stop
Hi,
I am writing on behalf of the local football team.
We are having a Season
Opener Beer Blast on July 28, 2006 at a Grove and I was
wondering if
you have that date available and what your rate is.
Please e-mail me
at your earliest convenience or call,
my cell phone is xxx-xxxx. Thanks,
Onalee
You
put on a great show the other night----we stayed to the
end---what a great
night. Pure entertainment. See you at Queen of Heaven.
Bernie N
I've
been telling you how PROFESSIONAL everyone in the band has
been. You all have come such a long way. I was so proud
of you that YOU got these WONDERFUL men to play with
you and support you. They all have GREAT talents. I
can say that Bruce gives me chills when he plays that harmonica,
to Mike kicking butt on the bass and PAT ... he puts the
BEAT in
my heart . Ken and Bob can NEVER be touched (MUSIC HALL
OF FAME for ken)
and you ..... lets just say that I could listen to you ALL
day. I can
close my eyes and imagine Bon Jovi, Journey ,Styx
..... I love your voice,
you have a warmth but yet sexy voice making me WANT TO HEAR MORE....
Pam
Mark,
Ha,Ha,Ha. I Iove it! You (and your evil twin) are
crazy. I like,"Hit
N Buns" too. Because you do have some very nice buns.
It seems
now that we have both had our fun at Club Paradise.
Julie
HI
- I hear you are playing at Desiderio's tomorrow night?
Cool! That is
right around the corner from my house and my husband and
I will be coming
out to see you and have a few drinks. Can you please do
me a HUGGEEE
favor? Tomorrow is my husband's birthday, can you
please wish him
a Happy Birthday by announcing it tomorrow night when you
see us?? Thanks!!
(His name is Stan) I'm sure we'll have a great time - your
band is
so good. I missed going to Evolution last Friday,
so I'm really looking
forward to Friday night! See ya then.
Liza (PCB)
I
really liked Club Evolution. It was the first time
I checked out the place.
Hope you guys play there again! It was like the sharks
were all over
the place and waiting to bite. (you prob had a little
bit of that on
Sat... :]
Monet
I'm
still waiting for my copy of the good pictures.
Jen
Mark,
Thanks for another great night at Club Paradise on Saturday.
We all
had so much fun as usual. The Hit n Run "newbie's" really
enjoyed the
show, and will be back out to see you again. You all sounded amazing,
especially at evolution. Kelly really kicked butt with you guys!
Anyway, I'll try to get mom and dad out soon. Take care,
and hopefully
we'll see you again this weekend.
Crystal Quick
yah,
you got that whole, smile, Italian, charasmatic cute/savy
thing workin
for you...and w/ that glint in your eye and your hand on
your heart
when you sing....we all know you know it....and it's intriging......
:] Shine on.
Aubrey
I
just got this email today, otherwise I for sure would have
come. Are you
considering going back to Evolutions? Hopefully you
will and hopefully
the next time will be a good night for us to come out.
I love the
early start.
Kelly
M
This
is to you Pat Brayman.......You are by far the MOST talented drummer
and FUNNEST drummer Hit N Run has ever had.
I guess Mark saves
the best for last. ( You and the rest ) Just love you guys.....luv you
luv you luv you's!!!!!
Darylann
Hit
N Run sounded great on Friday. That was the first
time I was at Evolutions
- the bar was nice. Definitely lots of fun!!
Dawn
Mark,
I just want to let you know that I am having the time of
my life performing
with Hit n Run. Thanks for the opportunity.
Bruce Decker
How
many singles did you make extra with the dance routine?
Not a bad side
gig. When do we see it again.
Sarah
How's
the Hit N Run dancer this week. Are you working up
a new routine for
Desi's this week?
Nancy L
I
would be interested in hearing some of your live stuff.
Are you going to
have it on the web? Then I could store it in my lib.
Here on the computer
and then I could listen to it when ever I wanted to.
Talk to you
later. Take care
Tonya
Now
that you've made a career change. Do you want the number
of my thong guy?
I heard you got a new group of Hit N Run followers.
Rick
I
just want to drop you all a line to say how great your band
is. We are from
Toronto and came down for a "girls weekend". Your lead singer
has some
great ASSets! I can't wait until we come down to Buffalo
again, we will
HAVE TO stop by to see you.
Betty
After
the SPECIAL show on Saturday, I think you have just expanded
your following
tremendously, with all of the girls from Club Paradise.
I heard
a lot of compliments in the ladies room about Hit n Run
and the lead
singer.
Barbara
Hey
Mark heard you had a great night the other night at club
Evolution. Thanks
for the plug!!! Tickets are going fast and furious for Queen
of Heavens
Party. A lot of people looking forward to seeing you guys.
Talk to
you soon.
Terry G
Hi
guys! Just wanted to let you know what a blast we had on
Saturday night.
You guys put the dancers to shame! Can't wait until Desi's
next Friday.
This week can't go fast enough.
Joanna
What
happens in Blasdell, Stays in Blasdell.
Rick
I
just wanted to thank you for making my first visit to New
York one, that
I had something to talk about. I will say that I have not
heard a band
that good in a long time. Too bad you did not travel
to Ohio. I would
go see you everytime you were in town. But I will say that
you have
a "nice behind" and that I would not want to get you
in trouble with
a other half if you have one. Great job guys. Thank you
Tonya
You
are such a HAM !!!! So tell me how they got those
pics of your better
parts.....
Peaches
Good
Morning and Happy Monday! How was the rest of your weekend?
You guys
were really awesome on Friday at Evolution! This group is
much better
than ever.
Renee L
How
are you? Now make sure your not going to catch a cold
with that little
outfit you were sporting this weekend!LOL
Kelly W
I
hear you give awesome lap dances. What's that all about?
Lisa
Hey,
you got a dollar, I can borrow. I heard about Saturday and
that you made
a few extra dollars on the side.
Andy
A
big thanks to everyone who came out to Evolution and Club
Paradise this
weekend. The crowds were huge and the atmosphere was unreal!
BUT: remember,
what happened at Club Paradise STAYS at Club Paradise! LMAO!!
Mike Schill
I
created these band shots of Hit n Run, for you. Maybe your
website manager
can put together something similar. You can have any of
your friends
look at it. http://www.myspace.com/leezab
Leeza
If
you get a chance look at those pictures I took of the 4
of you all lined
up. The lights and the way you guys were standing looked
pretty cool.
I'll say hi to Bruce in Asbury Park. If I can find it I
might stop by
the Stone Pony (I think that's the name of the bar) that
made him famous.
Have a good week and see you Sat. Like I said, you guys
were great,
thanks for the great entertainment. Best $6.00 (cover for
me and my
wife) I ever spent.
Ken
I
have followed Hit n Run now for over ten years. It seems
that every time
that I think you cant get any better, you continually prove
me wrong.
Each year, the band seems to get better and better. The
band seems
more talented than ever and has a wider mix of songs. I
really enjoy
the John Cougar, Tom Petty, Allman Brother and Bryan Adams additions.
Keep Rockin' we love to party with the best band around.
John
Thanks
to all for a great show. I look forward to seeing the band
again soon.
Terry M
My
Aunts are in love with you (and Hit N Run) so when you see
me Saturday
you need to give me a hug or something.....they will be
so jealous.
Dee
You
have got to get that good looking redhead to perform with
your band. Can you please let her sing some good songs
like "Hit me with your best shot" or "I love Rock and
Roll" and how about "I will survive"?? I think
that having her come aboard would be one of your best moves
in quite
a while. You should consider it. You guys rock and we have
a blast when
you are playing.
Brian S
Thanks
for a copy of that email. It is so transparent. The fact
is that your
crowds have been bigger than ever, and some people cant
deal with it.
Dave
It
sounds like some people got what they wanted, but not what
they expected.
Wait, as a courtesy, I'll keep a date open to go see them. When
does hell freeze over? In the meantime, I will go see the
best drawing
band around, "Hit N Run."
Rick
I
will see you tomorrow and then on Saturday.
Crystal Q
Hello,
I am the new owner of Town Center and I am looking for information
on booking your band possibly in April or May. Can
you please
forward your availability on Friday and Saturday nights
and what you
charge for a 4 hour set. I can be reached at xxx-xxxx or
on my cell phone
at xxx-xxxx. You can also email me. Thanks
Karen S
Girls
night out this Saturday. Yippeeee! Cant wait to see Hit
n Run this week
at Club Paradise.
Julie
We
know some musicians made the biggest mistake of their lives.
Hit N Run
lives on. Life is good on top .See you guys tonight.
Ken K
We
will have a crew of 30-40 people out to see you this week
at Evolution.
It is a great time slot to stop out immediately after our work
happy hour.
Jim
Please
confirm that you are at Evolutions. I want to bring some
friends and
reserve a table.
Joe
Wow,
it seem like you guys are everywhere. I guess we'll be seeing
a lot of
each other this summer. Seems everywhere I book us
(EC Fair, Old Home
Days, Lancaster, etc.) you guys have a slot too. Are
you using an agent
or do you handle everything yourself?
Bill
Hedrick (nebs) The ifs
Hey
Guys, Let me tell you how proud I am that you guys dont
stoop that low. Don't
change a thing, you guys all rock and the crowds in the clubs
show it week after week after week. FROM SOMEONE! WHO KNOWS
A GOOD BAND FROM A COPY!!!!!
Barbie
Keep
sending the band info - I know Bob very well from
the old days!!! I
think about you guys all the time in between my work.
I am so proud to
see all that you are still doing awesome and winning awards. Congrats!!!!
Congrats!!! I am dying to play and do try to keep up with the
music scene. It is a joy as you well know. You
lucky sh-t to get back
stage with Bon Jovi (one of our favorites!!!). We did get
out to see
Trans -Siberian Orchestra but not Bon Jovi. We will be out
to see you
when we have a chance!!
Marilyn Furr
Mark,
Just wanted to let you know that although you were missed,
the boys
did great Saturday night at Macaroons, you would have been
really proud.
Kelly rocked as usual. The crowd was great.
I have lots of pictures
to send you! I really think I should be the bands
official photographer!
Liz
Hi,
my wife and I are having an out side house party june 10
and I was wondering
if you could give me some price info and tell me if you
are available
on that day. you can email me, thank you very much
mike and katie s
Hi
Mark, Introduced myself to Jeff Meirs over at the News today
being the
shy guy that I am. We have a number of mutual friends and
we talked about
the talent we have in Buffalo. I told him that he should
do an article
on the great cover bands in the area on of which is Hit
N Run. He
holds you guys in high regard.
Kol
last
night. The band did a great job....I def enjoyed them,
but it wasn't
the same "Superman" song w/o you. It just wasn't as
satisfying. Hope
you feel better real soon! Anyway, the band really rocked....and Kelly
helped out too, but I really need my HNR "with Mark" fix!!!!!
I mean
come on.....I live in WNY dude!!! Get well soon!!!
Aubrey
Hit
and run is like a triple threat. 1 playing all the best
hits. 2 performing
on the stage of all the best clubs. 3 showing the competition there
no errors in this band. From a fan from when u first started
at college,
batter up.
Bugs
Hi
Mark, sorry to hear you were sick. Mike took over for you
and did an admirable
job getting the crowd pumped. He is a good guy. Macaroon's was
packed and they blew them away again, not the same without
you but they
did a great job along with that girl that comes up to sing
with you on
occasion (Red Head). Mike was funny, said it wasn't a hostile takeover,
but that you were on a Midwest business trip and caught
the flu.
I spent some time with Mark Mahoney at the show.
Ken K
hey
Mark- I just got the skinny from Rick L on what happened
to the band a
few months ago, messed up. Congrats on putting together
the new crew/schedule
so quickly, that is saying something. Best of luck
to you and
the new crew.
MIKE T
You
guys were awesome on Friday night. Had a great time-always
do when your
playing.
Darcy
Great
show on friday at macaroons.
Alicia
Mark,
You guys were really good the other night at Macroons!
Amy
I
hope you guys aren't made about last Friday w/the underwear.
You know we
love ya's and it was all in fun!!!! Had I known you where
going to play
my song I wouldn't of raised a lil hell. My new years rez.
is going to
start Feb, 2 b a good girl! Yep I'll drink to that.
Darylann
Thanks
for the pictures of Bon Jovi. Mark - I hate you.
Chris Klein 97 Rock
Just
wanted to let you know while I was working out at Curves
there were 5
ladies next to me talking about Hit N Run and what dates
they were stopping
out. They knew your whole schedule. It was funny.
Alyson
How
is everything going? I just wanted to let you know
that I was really
looking forward to coming and seeing you guys this Friday
at Macaroon's.
Bruce W
That
is it????? What happens back stage? Do you talk a lot to
them? Hw long
are you back there?
Stacey
EXPLAIN!!!!

You don't just show pictures of yourself and BON JOVI with "some
pics with Bon Jovi after the show on Friday"
Tell me what happened!!!!!
BON JOVI for cryin out loud...and you look so calm
Mary C
Omg...those

the concert,
they gave an excellent show! I took some pics myself on
my cell phone.
I am happy for u that u got to meet them...that kind of opportunity
does not come along but once in a lifetime. Take care and hope

Anita
You

I am dying for details.
Stacey

looking for ya, and

Val
I

Wayne
Glad

set shot against

Kermit

so jealous that you met Bon Jovi ! I hope you enjoyed the
concert! we'll
all be out to see you soon, we need to get our Hit N Run
rush soon.I
hope you guys will be playing at Club Paradise that night
=) Take care.
Crystal Q
Sounds
like the backstage meeting was nice! Who are the girls
in the pictures
though? Did you give Jon a kiss for me? Cathy
too? How long did
you get to hang out? I'm curious as to how many people
get to meet bands
backstage? Good concert, hugh?! Me and Cathy
had a nice time.
Kelly
Excellent
pics - we were at the concert too - in the nose bleeds.
Did you
sing for him?
Gretchen
So
how were they back stage? Show was great, he ended up about
8 rows in front
of us for Dead or Alive. I heard he was pretty sick
earlier in the
day and then I heard there plane went off the runway in
Hamilton the other
day but they were all ok
Mike
So
where were my backstage passes?
Jen
like
from Ted Nugent: "Yah...you know what we like"!!!
:]yah, you know it......If
it is only Fri,,,,gotta get that fix....see you then.....I saw
the Bon Jovi pictures......"You lucky dog"!!!!
Awesome!
Monet
As

Kolniak
You

Nancy D
Hey
Mark, How was the concert? I thought about you alot
and how neat it was
for you to be at the concert and did you say that you had
back stage passes
also? That must have been awesome man, you are so lucky,
can't wait
to see if you got some pictures back stage! I'm working
on getting the
clan of nuts together for a nite out with you and your band
hitnrun soon,
I'm hoping that maybe we can do an Evolution nite out with
ya , we all
like it there and because we are getting old the early nite
is good for
us .......LOL till we get out again and hope it is
really soon here.
Rock on guys.
Sally and Steve
Hey
MarkyMark, I'd like to see the show and never made a move.
Paul K
Should
Mary and I bring our camera tomorrow night? What are the
chances of
a special guest on stage appearance for you? Anyway, have
a great time
at the show. A while back we talked about you performing
on Sunday July
2 at our house for a summer party. Mary and I wanted to
have three bands
play, first is a friend who played our house warming and
after hours
wedding party, then a jazz band from Lewiston that is also
a friend
followed by you guys. We could make it so we're all wrapped
up by 8:30
or 9:00 at night. Let me know your thoughts.
Mike
I
hear you are taking us backstage to Bon Jovi???
Jen
My
review of your friday show: GREAT! great job on foreplay/longtime, nice
inclusion of superstition and your singing on seperate ways
was phenominal.
see ya again soon.
Rich
I
was at Macaroons on Friday. Why am I not on your website
yet? Sorry, I'm
being rude, my name is Kristy and I really enjoyed my time
listening and
dancing to your music. Please let me know when my
picture will be posted.
Thank you!
Kristy
Pat

Sally Livergood
Mark,
How was your weekend? Did you see the girls at the
Sabres game? We
really kicked some *** ! Hey I see on your website
the celebrities. I
Know Mary Alice Demler and her family ! I hung
at her house when i was
younger! See you this weekend.
Amber
Wanted
to tell you that you that the band sounded incredible as
usual last
night and Annemarie and I had a blast as we usually do.
We are looking
forward to seeing you guys play again. Talk to you
soon.
Lisa
I
just wanted to drop you a line and wish you, your family,
and the band a
great new year. I also wanted to commend you for the
way you've handled
everything over the last few months. Unlike the other
classless group.
Have fun New Years Eve.
Roger and Denise
I
first saw your band at the buffalo music awards, and let
me say you brought
it! I am 25 yrs old and of the era of music where bass is
key and
the vocals are secondary, but I also have a rooted back
ground in rock.
My step father played drums for a band the never went huge
and did alot
of covers, but eventually they got a original cd out the
was called beggars
and thieves, u might of heard of them. So long story short
I was brought
up on the great drummers (styx, rush) and the sounds of
real music.
I grew up listening to bands like the tubes, and the ramones
when my
friends played puff daddy, and pantera. Then hearing you
do styx, and rush,
and green day and goo goo dolls and making each of them
unique to yourself
and also right on at the same time, I became your roady.
I have followed
you from show to show and have probably shared a few of
the same
hang overs with you also. I have even gotten all my friends involved
and now we have the well where is hit and run playing tonight before
we go out talk. So with all that useless knowledge I now
gave you I
just wanted to say Hit N Run rocks and I hope you still
do for many years
to come.
Dave
1/02
Just wanted to wish you a happy new year. Margo, Alissa
and I will be
missing and thinking about you. We may even have to watch
your DVD so we
don't have Hit N Run withdrawal. I definitely have to bring
the camcorder
and get a new updated DVD made with the new guys!
Denene
1/01
Have a Happy and Healthy New Year. C'ya soon.
Lillian
12/27
HEY PAT! HOPE YOUR FEELING BETTER. MY WIFE AND I LOOK FORWARD
TO SEEING
YOU GUYS PLAY. TOLD YOU I'D CHECK YOUR SITE OUT!
CHRIS (THE EMERGENCY ROOM NURSE
VAMPIRE AT GATES) lol

Hi mark, I just wanted to say thank you for making Lillians birthday
celebration a great one.... you guys are great....
Alicia
Hit
N Run rocked Buffalo into and beyond the night....you were
as usually
more than awesome! I just can't keep still when you
guys play. Love
getting my HNR fix!
Crystal D
Hit
& Run would like to send a serious shout out to Ron
Rocco for the last
minute pinch hit for Pat on 12-23. Ron came out and
rocked the house,
learning songs on breaks and winging it where he had to,
showing what
a true pro and a great friend does in a tough situation.
Also, Al Hury
pitched in for a bunch of tunes in the 3rd set, and we'd
like to thank
him as well. Pat is doing better, and does plan to play
on New Years,
and says thanks for all the attention to him and his little friend.
Mike Schill
I
am so HAPPY....EXCITED.....Cause I am going to party with
HIT N RUN. Well
see you SATURDAY for Sure. Love your #1 Fan and Friend
Michelle
Mark,
I just wanted to let you know that we may be out tonight
with Kevin.
Im not 100% sure, but Im trying to him to come with us.
He has hockey
until 11:00, so if we come we probably wont be there until 12-12:30ish.
Email me back your home or cell phone number.
Crystal Q
Want
to wish you a Happy Holiday Season. Enjoy some time with
family & friends.
A New Year is coming, be happy, safe & healthy. Still
lovin' ya,
Valerie
Thanks
for playing at the Bowmansville Firehall party last month.
Pencil us
in for Saturday, December 9th, 2006, for our banquet.
Wayne
Hey
Hit'n Run (Mark, Ken, Bob, Pat and Bruce) I had no idea
that all these
old friends were playing together in the same band. Congrats
to Mark
on the '05 BMA... well deserved!! Hope all you guys are
well... my best
for the holidays to you and yours. I'll be out to see you
guys the next
time a trip to WNY falls in line with one of your shows.
I'd kill to
find a band like Hit'n Run to play with down here.
Bobby, I could tell
you some great stories about Congress... still have to pinch
myself every
time I want into the Capitol. I can't believe I work here!!!!
How the
hell did I go from singing, playing, drinking and chasing
women in WNY
to this... after 9/11, I can't even be sure I'll live longer
doing this...
Kenny, the FEDS still give out pensions... looks like I
might actually
be able to retire someday!!
Tim Wright
Hey
Mark, I hope all is well with you and the boys, last time
I heard it,
it sounded GREAT. Have a Merry Christmas and continued success.
JOE "TALL"
Merry
Christmahanikwanikah to all in the Great White North from
the warm and
sunny ATL. Here is hoping that the Jaeger is cold,
and the beautiful
Buffalo girls are dancing to the music. See you in
the spring /
summer.
Kevin in Atlanta
It
was great to hear Paradise again! It sounded better
than ever, Kelly rocked
it! She sounded great with the new band. I really
think that you
should bring her on board. She has strong vocals and
sing almost anything,
not just chick songs! I think it would be a great
addition.
Liz
Hi
Mark, I shot a 300 this week, to match yours from earlier
this year. See
you soon.
Shoes
Here's
wishing you nothing but the best in the new year.
Jill
Merry
Christmas....all the best in 2006
Frank S
We
all will be back out after the holidays , we haven' t been
going out lately
due to holidays coming up and working so much, gotta love
that retail
job! LOL I forwarded your email to the livergood gang
.
Steve , Sally and girls
Have
a Merry Christmas Mark...
Stacey
Hi
I saw your band at Bowmansville Firer Dept on Dec 10, 2005.
I wanted to
ask if there was an open date for our function next summer,
2006. Please
reply to this request. It is for our fire dept party in
West Seneca,
Thanks
Jim
Well,
look for us. Me and Cathy will be going out to dinner
somewhere first
and then heading down to your show, right after that.
Kelly
M
With
the weather being the way it was, you had a GREAT CROWD
on Saturday at Club Miami. You know your TRUE and LOYAL
friends will always be there for you. Kelly sang awesome.
She did a great job on Paradise by the dashboard lights.
We always have a GREAT time coming out to see the band!
Daryl and I just LOVE PAT!!!!!! Daryl was up there
jamming on his drums
like they were hers! Lol. I hope Jenna had fun. I
told her that anytime
she wanted to go out with us just to send me an email.
I will see
you on Friday at Macaroons.
Pam
I
hope you and your family have a great Christmas, and a happy
and successful
New Year!
Bobby
Hey
Happy Holidays to you and your family. I am hoping
to be out to see you
New Years Eve no doubt. Well take care and see yah sooner
than later.
Have a good one. Your #1 Fan Forever
Michelle D
See
you on Friday. And I just hope there is room to dance this
time. Last
time it was like being at a concert.
Lil
I
sent you a card - Don't know if you got it, but if
you didn't, Merry Christmas!!
Dianna
Awesome
show at Club Miami on Saturday as usual!! I had a
great time singing
with you guys, got alot of good feedback and looking forward
to cranking
out some more songs with all of you, it's all about having
fun and
loving what you do and HNR proves that time after time!
Kelly W
I
was bored and I was "browsing" Hit 'N' Run. I noticed
that Mark is going
to the Bon Jovi concert in January. Hopefully I'll
get tickets for
Christmas!! They are at the very top of my list!
Great to see the band
is doing well and I hope to see you soon. Gotta go!
Emily
I
will hopefully see you at Paradise on New Years Eve.
Well have a good one,
your #1 Fan
Michelle
Hope
to see ya all tonite. I rocked out well enough anyway of
course. Well,,,,maybe
not as much as if I saw you guys...but.....
:]
Monet
We
will be out tonight to see you guys. Miss you.
Haley and Heidi
I
will see you on the 23rd at macaroons we will be celebrating
lillians birthday...
im not sure if you do requests but i was wondering maybe just
maybe you could play her favorite song by def leppard "pour
some sugar
on me" she goes nuts when you guys do it.
Alicia
Outstanding!!!
You ARE the luckiest boy in the whole wide world.
Stacey
We
plan to be there Sat. night at Club Miami. Can't wait, been
too long (2
weeks). Need my Hit N Run fix.
Ken K
Hi
Mark...What's up with that....a Back Stage pass to see Bon
Jovi ? That's
just not fair. "You have no idea what I would do to get
my hands on
Back Stage Passes."
Julia
Hi
Guys, Enjoy the holidays!
Joe S
I
see your website is coming along great. I wanted you to
know, I went to
see some Hit n Run former members at Jacobis. We were a
group of 4 out
of the 30-40 people total that were there, in the bar.
When the band
started acting like kids and holding up "Mark Who" signs,
and making
rude comments about you and Hit n Run, we left. We
will never go and
see them again.
Dee
Hi
Mark I hope you are ready for the holidays. I am a last
minute guy myself.
I just wanted to drop a line and tell you. What a difference
a month
makes. The last time I saw you guys WOW!! It sounded like
you have been
together a lot longer than you have been, you are getting
tight fast!!!
And the new tunes are excellent too. I will see you either
Fri or
Sat. take care!
Irish Shawn
Hey
Lil wants to know what happen to her vac pic from crystal
beach. Alicias
is still there but hers is gone.
Ken D
Thanks
for the awesome job you guys did at our Bowmansville fire company's
annual banquet on 12/10. We were all very impressed with
ALL your
talent. It was also great to see an old friend [Mike Schill]
in the band.
We haven't seen Hit N Run play in about 3mths and it was
quite a surprise.
We will be out to see you guys much more. Happy Holidays!
Mary T
I
am very in interested in hearing a sound clip and possibly
booking you for
a rain or shine concert for the Town Summer Concert Series.
I visited
your website and see the sound clip portion of the site
in not working
yet. I thought maybe you could email me a song just
so I can here
the kind of music you play. Also, can you give me
a ballpark price for
a concert from 7:30 - 9:00 p.m. I appreciate it and
look forward to hearing
back from you.
Amy
Hey
Mark! Just wanted to drop ya a note to say the band
was awesome that
night i got to see ya at macaroons. Thanks for the
dedication! Hope
to see more of you guys. Keep in touch
Selina
Mark,
I cannot thank you enough for letting all of us lunatics
get on the
stage and have such fun! The photos are great and I am putting
them on
my web site as well! You're a great guy!
Gregg S
Good
show on SAT. night, you have another winner. We think that
there is still
only one great band, that being HitnRun". The plus side
is that now
you have an opportunity do new things and new material to
keep the band
fresh. They said that Robbie Takac is the hardest working
base player
in town but it just might be your new base player. The guy
is awesome.
Ken K
Great
show by Hit 'N Run at the Newfane ICMH Christmas Party.
Thanks to Mark
& the band for putting out a great show. An excellent
time was had by
all with this award winning band. It's always a pleasure
seeing this great
band.
Tom K
Thanks,
Mark for a great time. It's midnight, and I'm only recovering slightly
now. Too many drinks and way too much singing. I'll
be hearing about
THAT on Monday I'm sure. LOL
Val K
Hey,
Mark, sounds like a great line up.......all my old buddies.
Say hi to
them. Have a great holiday and best of luck to H&R.
Keep me on your list.
I'll come and see you all soon.
Paul Varga (Talas)
Wow-
you certainly know how to pack a joint...what is your secret? Things
seem to be going even better w/o the old crew. I Figured
as much.
Michael
We
love hit-n-run! and we are wondering if you were interested
in doing a
wedding approx 175 guest, on Oct 14 2006. If yes can you
email us some prices
and info on booking. thank you. sincerly
Charlene and Jason
Hit
n Run is the best...."Superman", is one of my most favorite
songs you
do! I also love the Neil Diamond and Journey stuff.
There is always such
a large, groovin crowd at Hit N Run shows!!!! The
last few times, I
could hardly find room to move around! I guess I'm
not the only who finds
that you are their favorite band. Anyway, I'm pretty
good at navagating
through the crowd! :] You guys just
sound better, every time
I catch you! You are an absolute machine at times!!!!
Aubrey
Just
wanted to say that you guys sounded awesome as usual.
Had to scoot out
a little earlier than normal. Was too unbelievably
busy in there tonight.
Couldn't dance too well. Can't wait to see you guys
again. Have
an awesome Thanksgiving.
Lisa
Congratulations
on your "Top Pop Rock Band" and "Top Male Vocalist" Awards
in both the Buffalo Music Awards and The Peoples Choice
Awards. They
are well deserved.
Tom B
Hi
there, I had fun Wednesday night. Mike is having his Christmas
Party for
the guys, where he takes everyone out for dinner and drinks.
It'll be
about 10 couples that night and I thought after Dinner we
could all come
out to see you play but of course when I looked up where
you play that
night it has to be at some Firehall. Our Party is on the
Dec 10th. That
would have been nice. Well, maybe some other night.
Jutta
I
am interested in booking the band for either Saturday September
2nd or
Sunday September 3rd. My preference would be Sat.
We have a great time
at our fair, Our beer tent is packed and I always look for
strong bands
to fill our dance floor. Hope you can fit us into
your schedule. Please
get back to me with rate and availability. Thanks
Tim P
I'm
hoping to be at mac's tomorrow night. At least that
is my game plan.
Me and Tara. In fact you took pics of us the last
time you were at
mac's. You know Tara and her sister and me and my
girlfriend with the
long straight blonde hair. We always steal the beads
from you LOL. Hopefully
we will see you tomorrow night. Talk to you soon....
Lisa
Happy
Thanksgiving to my favorite superstar and his family
: ) Love ya golden
chords...
Heidi
Give
me a call when you start setting up your 2006 calendar which
I assume will be pretty soon. We want to confirm the SJV
lawn fete for 2006. I meant to talk to you later last Saturday
at Club Paradise and tell you that your former members contacted
the rectory at SJV advising that hit n run was basically
no more and that they were keeping the SJV weekend open
as a courtesy. It filtered to me and I knew better.
Assume that they are doing the same every where else. Anyways
let me know.
St John Vianney
Hey
Mark and Company: Just wanted to say that the band sounds
incredible!!!!!!! I would love to be added to your
mailing list to keep updated on your whereabouts.
Thanks Mark for the Hit n Run shirt. It is so much
better than the tank anyways!!! You sounded even better
@ T-birds (Club Miami) last night when I went to see you.
I got a new fan for you so we will be coming to see you
more often!!! Keep up the good work and I look forward to
hearing you guys every weekend.
Lisa
Congratulations
on winning Best Band in both the Peoples choice and Buffalo
Music Awards, and Top Male Vocalist in Both too. You’re
such a rock star! It was great to see you on Saturday. I
always have a blast! It was really nice getting to talk
to the rest of the guys in the band too. What a great group
of guys, so polite and super talented! You’ll always be
my favorite though!
Jenna
Hey
guys this is Sandy Belsky (former drummer of Why On Earth).
Congrats on the awards last night. It was nice to
see the new band, you guys sounded great. Keep it
up, and I'll see you soon I'm sure.
Sandy Belsky
Awesome
show last night! Everyone sounded great. We all had a blast.
Even my wallflower friends were dancing. One thing I want
to mention, your keyboardist kicked ass. He’s' a great addition
to the band. We will be out to see you soon.
Crystal Quick
Well,
it looked like HNR had a fantastic crowd on Saturday.
I'm happy for you guys. You guys sounded AWESOME.
Maybe it's just the Club Miami room, but it sounded fantastic.
Tabatha
Hey
guys, thanks for all the support! The guys all appreciate
(and are quite overwhelmed by, LOL) all the good wishes
and feedback you've been giving us. This has been
quite a whirlwind, and we thank you for your patience while
we learn songs at lightspeed and the stuff you want to hear
back on the list. Keep the song ideas coming in (Me
doing Quiet Riot? Why does everybody wanna make me
scream? Don't get me wrong, I'll do it, but I like sensitive
love songs too...like Wango Tango and Enter Sandman, LOL).
We want to keep this new as well as keep the core stuff
going strong. Thanks for making this fun, and we'll keep
it that way for you!
Mike Schill
Great
show at Macaroon's it was awesome seeing so many people
from different bands come and show their support such as
Only Human, Mo Porter, Universille Grill, Split image and
Greg Sansone.
Peaches
Awesome
new web site !
Don S
Well
I told you that I would let u know how you all sounded and
I think u all sounded good. It was nice to get out and see
u again and talk with you, ur band will go far and loved
the Bob Seger addition too! It was great.....Wished
I could have stayed longer but u know how that goes when
u have kids! Probably won't be out for a while til
after holidays but can't wait to get out and see u and ur
new band again. Tell Nancy and Mike we said hello and hope
to see u all soon!
Love,
Sally Livergood and the gang
Mark,
it's your biggest littlest fan. This new band is way better
than the last one. I can't wait until I meet the new people
and drop a note or two with them. LOL. My mom has been practicing
her opera. (it really stinks and hasn't gotten any better....
this is a warning.... DO NOT BRING HER UP ON STAGE TO SING!!!!!!!!
I should know.) Well, I have to go before I get into
too much detail and my mom doesn't let me sign this stuff.
So I must leave.
P.S. Now I need a new shirt cuz all
the other people signed the old one. (I am wearing it now.)
I tried to get their names off and go over yours with a
new marker but it didn't really work. Hope to see
you soon!!!
Lil' Journeyfan (aka Emily)
(aka Biggest Littlest HNR fan or as some people like to
say..... LIL STEVE PERRY!!!!)
GREAT!!
It's Our turn.... I've been waiting to post this for the
entire world to see for weeks now. To good friends,
real people, real talent and great fun... Hit N Run kicks
ass now, more than EVER!!!! Keep it real guys.
The Freak
Awesome
time at Mac's on Friday.The whole band was great.
How many more friends could you fit on stage? Nice
job on the drums, Mark. Went the web site first went down
I thought I would miss a whole lot about Mark and Hit N
Run. I was wrong. Apparently some former members
have nothing better to do but talk about Mark and Hit N
Run. What is that old saying? Any publicity is good
publicity. I think we all owe them a huge THANK YOU for
keeping Hit N Run alive. DUH. Mark and Hit N
Run have 2 websites now. Now that the new Hit N Run website
is up ,(which is great by the way) The others can concentrate
on how to publicize and create a new song list without using
the Hit N Run name. Can't wait to see you all again.
Thanks for saving me a tambourine!!
Carla & The Gang
you
guys get better/tighter/more fun every time I catch you.
Everyone is so much talented! I love that I never
know what the next song will be. Mark is still the
ultimate entertainer, but definitely has a great supporting
band, who can create a great rocking atmosphere! I
like how the bass player's energy keeps him moving.
Everyone is on the move toward a "Loosen Up" script.
Keep the energy going.....the crowds definitely appreciate
it! You guys ROCK!......I love the diversity
Monet
As
always you came out on top. You pulled it together
in a really short amount of time and sound better than ever.
We can all really see that you really DO have more fun,
now. Not as tense and fake with the smiles as you
used to be. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!
Brian
You
guys were awesome at Macs, last night. I danced so much
I hurt today. I was also happy to see Dan, your old guitarist.
You all were great. Renee, I love your new hair cut. I think
it's awesome that you are still friends.
Carolyn
I
knew a few of the new members of HitnRun, as fat brat for
many years and knew the talent they possessed. If you add
all of their years of experience together you understand
why they blend together so well and sound so good. I used
to know Ken Wilczak as Jambo and was a great fan back in
the barrelhead days. Yes, a long time ago!! I know little
about the break up of the previous Hitnrun and much about
the new and improved Hitnrun. I am a personal fan of the
drummer, Pat Brayman. Then Hitnrun happened....was this
meant to be or what??? Pat also got the added joy
of being reunited with Bruce Decker the keyboardist.(who
plays one hell of a harp and is just way toooo cool)...Pat
was a happy man. I am a true believer that things happen
for a reason. Hitnrun has been blessed to be....it happened
and was meant to be. You are great together. Mark Valentino
sings like a bird and his versatility and personality….
enormous. He FINALLY gets the band and the respect he deserves.
Playing and singing with professional musicians, a perfect
fit. I love the band and wish you continued everlasting
success!
SUE
HIT
N RUN - THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST WEB SIGHTS I'VE BEEN ON.
LIKE THE BAND IT ROCKS
Bugs
Just
wanted to say you guys sound great and there is a big difference
with the new band members! I love to "Raise A Little
Hell" when I go out with the girls so can you please learn
that one for me. Thanks
BARBIE ;-)
Mad
Man Mark, I may have left Buffalo, but I am still checkin
up on ya. Glad to see the website is up and running again.
That was some low down dirty garbage I saw go on through
the web. I know the girls (Liz, Pam, Darryl, Sandy,
Kelly, Cindi, etc) are still behind you 100% and I wanted
to wish you the best. You always seem to know how to balance
the business with the party, so I am sure you will be booking
shows and filling the bars like always. I miss having
a guaranteed party to go to with your shows, but I am sure
some new band will get to endure my drunk-ass lip-syncing
soon enough! Pack a bus, take a road trip and come on down
and play Raleigh. Some great places to play around
this area and they LOVE classic rock down here. Best of
luck!
Pete
Awesome
Website. Can't wait until it's finished. A friend
of mine was just asking if he could hear something from
your band! WOW! Oh...and I ab love the
picture/sincerely Mark V. part.........PROPS!!!!!
:]
Aubrey
You
guys really sound incredible, now that is what harmonies
are supposed to sound like! The new website is awesome too,
great job!
Kelly
The
NEW web site is awesome, very professional.. just like you
guys are!!!!!!! You sound INCREDIBLE. Mark, you brought
in some very talented guys who know how to ROCK THE HOUSE!!
I love watching you guys play. Oh BTW .....Pat make room
for your helpers who love to play the drums too.
Pam
It
was great to see you with the new band. The bass player
can definately sing ACDC. I was suprised he did so
well. I must say that the girl keyboard player was very
talented and complimented you nicely. It would be
great to have her back. The hell with the rest of
them. I enjoyed some of your new music. You Rock!
See you soon.
Don C
"Hi
Mark a few more shows with the drummer and you guys will
sound great!!!! I went to Club Miami after your show at
the fire hall. perfect game I have no respect for at all....the
back of there shirts are a put down to you(in my opinion.)
I think that is tacky. The good news they had a quarter
of the people you draw and NONE of them had your voice,
we stayed for 5 minutes to finish our drink and left. You
have mine and my friend’s votes!!!!!! See you soon"
Shawn
"Thanks for your help at the fundraiser at Macaroons this
past Friday. Dixie said that is the best you guys have ever
sounded. I didn't ask her, she just made that comment. We
netted a lot of money. It was a good time. We will definitely
be doing it again."
Bill A
"Great crowd and show at Desidarios last Friday. Me and
my girlfriends had a blast. We are busy this week, but will
see you either at Macaroons or Club Paradise, which is our
next weekend for a girls night out."
Dorothy
"Hey Mark, it’s Joe. Great new line-up. I enjoy
some of the newer material. Nice addition of Schill on Bass.
He has tons of energy and does ACDC great. Nice Bass solo
last weekend."
Joe
"I’ve heard about everything that happened! Im happy that
your website is somewhat up and running. Chris and I (along
w/ friends) will be out to see you soon! I’m sure your band
is better than ever. That is what I keep hearing!"
Crystal Q
"You guys sounded AWESOME!!!!! You sounded better than ever!"
Daryl
" I had a blast the other night. I got a lot of positive
responses back. I’m going to look into finding a bigger
venue for next year."
Mike F
"Ken Wilczak is AMAZING on guitar. I used to specifically
go see him in Fatbrat and Jambo, just to watch him play.
Great Addition!"
"The New Hit N Run: I think the actual musical talent has
improved significantly, your new lead guitarist is amazing!
(can I get lessons?) I saw Fat Brat a few times and he was
always a good show. Also, like the keyboard player, much
more "into it" and like the addition of the harmonica. Bass
player adds some great additional show personality."
Mike S
"Well, what can I say. You guys sounded better than ever
on Sat. I never doubted you. I will be out to see you this
Friday."
Doreen
"That Harmonica/keyboard player is the Bomb. Great Pick-up!"
Lou
"My friend said the word on the streets is that HNR sounds
better now then before (that is actually what I have heard
several times over also). In addition, Mark still
has great stage presence and knows how to interact with
the crowd."
Jenn
"We know where to find the real talent! Well besides
myself."
Kevin
" Hi.... I have a quick second before I run off to eat and
cheer leading... I just wanted to let you know that EVERYONE
commented on how great you guys sound. Even people
who have never said anything about the band before were
talking about how they liked you guys."
Brenda
"Lets face it. When people think of Hit n Run, they think
of Mark. Glad to see that you have another talented line-up."
Frank
"You guys really sounded great. I cant believe that it sounded
so good in such a short time. And it will only get better,
still."
Peaches
"I did not see any dates on your schedule for Tony Romes
and I was wondering if you will not be playing there any
more?"
Bob
"So glad to hear that you had great turnouts!! It's
amazing that you could have your new band up and running
immediately!! I do hope to be
able to come out and see you guys
soon. Will Evolutions be on your schedule?"
Kelly
"It is actually refreshing to see Hit n Run play some newer
songs. Thanks for letting me jump on stage."
Barb
"Glad to see you still have Hit N Run performing without
missing a beat."
Chuck
"I will be seeing you.... You're not shaking me off that
easily"
Val
"There is a difference between a musician and an entertainer.
An entertainer has a following, a musician does not. I could
loosely be called a musician but you don't see anyone following
me ! Trust me, they come to see you"
Ken
"You guys sound really good! Pat from Naughty Dawg was at
Macaroon's too did you see him? I talked to him for
a bit then he sent me an email the next day telling me how
awesome it was how you threw this together and it Sounded
really good and he loved the harmonies etc."
Kelly
"I had heard of Ken. I will be excited to see this change.
I will see you Saturday!!! Have to love all the practice!!!
That's why I dont play out anymore no time to get tight
with anyone!!!"
Shawn
"It sounds like you landed on your feet. Is Mike Schill
part of this. If so drop an elbow on him from the
top rope for me. He is a great guy and a great player."
Kevin
"Mark, see you on Friday. We are trying to get the
boys to all come out. Keep the Faith."
The Difference Maker
"I got tons of compliments at the bar, on the new material
and how great the band sounded. I was expecting it to be
not as polished, but if you did not look up, you heard Marks
voice and a great band and did not notice a difference"
