"CORE produces a great rock sound. Todd puts on a really engaging performance - - all that energy, a strong on-key voice, gets his voice around the lyrics -- really SINGS the lyrics, great rapport with the audience. Perfect."

"At times the evening reminded me of being back at the Fillmore West in San Francisco, listening to the Dead and other top groups. (You guys sounded like the Dead jamming more than once, falling in some great rhythmic grooves, I think. But it wasn't a copy -- just the driving force and the spirit of the music.)"

"Suzy's is a pleasant place. It was a great way to spend the evening -- it's been a tough couple of weeks, and coming down to Hermosa Beach was exactly what I -- and she -- needed."

"Also have to say I was very impressed by your drumming. Very impressed. Bravo, Dave!"

"See you Saturday. Thanks for a terrific evening of very good music."


"David - congrats on the band and the website - I read your post in LA Radio and thought it was very cool."

"I listened to you on www.corejams.com  and am requesting you consider playing for my wedding reception"
