Various comments after Fundraiser - 13/11/09

Claire B - "had a bloody good night! The band were fantastic as usual!"

Anon - "Tell your husband I'll quite happily become a groupie for his band, they were fantastic. By the way, how cool to have a husband who plays in a band!"

Nicola C - "My feet are hurting this morning, could have something to do with all the dancing I did to the amazing ABO last night"

From Iona R-L (Event organiser - 26/9/09)

"Just a quick email to let you know that, as predicted, the phones were red hot with everyone singing your praises today. Also to let you guys know that we made a cracking £950 which is pretty damn brilliant - so once again thank you, thank you"

From William L (Party host - 19/9/09)

"Hi lads, just to say a massive thanks to all involved with the band for Saturday night! We literally had the bestest of times and there are so many people who've come up to us in school, at Mum's work and Em's Uni friends who said not only was the night awesome but the band were absolutely superb! Once again a gigantic thank you to you all!!!!!"
From Laura T & Claire J (Party go-ers - 22/8/09)

"You were awesome on Saturday night at H's birthday party. Everyone had a brilliant night and all said how good you were!! cant wait to see you all again!! THANKS!!"

"You were brilliant at Harriet's party. I can't believe I danced, but it had to be done; the music was superb!"

From 'Team Hachfest' (Event organisers - 1/8/09)

"Hi guys. Just a quickie to say thanks so much for playing at Hachfest and for a great set. Loved the Hives cover (nice bass line!) Hope you enjoyed it and many thanks again"
From Kayleigh S (a fan at Martlesham MOTG '09)

"OMG! You guys are brilliant!!! I personally think, along with others, that you should have been the closing act at 'Music On The Green'. You honestly blew everyone away, and the songs you chose were absolutely perfect!!"

"Cheers boys for an absolutely crackin night!!!!!!"

Another great gig at Saxmundham. You guys really rocked the town and the feedback from our members was superb. Will catch up another day guys. Good music.

From Naomi H (Party host - 7/2/09)

Just wanted to email and say thank you very much for playing on Saturday. Everyone commented on how good you all were, and even Uncle John (who never likes any bands) liked you, so that's definitely a compliment! I was so pleased you played and thought you made my evening complete. I look forward to hearing you all play again in the future”
From Colin (Party host - 1/11/08)

What can I say, you really got the beginning of my life (40!) going with a bang. I, and about ninety other people thought you were awesome with a capital 'A'.
Your set was right on the button and I would recommend you to anyone (except maybe my Gran). Cheers!”  
From the Groom (Felixstowe Wedding - 11/10/08)

We just wanted to say many thanks for helping us have the best night we could have imagined. Your set list was fantastic and got everyone up and dancing from the start, we really could not have asked for more. Since returning from the honeymoon we have received no end of calls and messages from friends saying how much they enjoyed themselves and singing your praises”
Various comments received after our co-headline gig at
"Music On The Green" July 2008

"Really enjoyed the evening. No bad comments only next gig get some Anything But Ordinary beach balls!"

"I thought it was a really good set on Saturday and that you were even better than when I'd previously seen you. I think having had the crowd warmed up by the other bands helped with the atmosphere and allowed you to get into your stride really quickly"

"Fantastic night. Good feedback from all. Other bands weren't a patch on you"

"Good set, well received"

From EADT/Evening Star (14th/15th July 2008)
About "Music On The Green 2008"


"1000's of people enjoyed a music marathon in a Suffolk village at the weekend. Bands provided more than 10,000 people who gathered on Martlesham Heath green with 12 hours of non-stop music on Saturday. The 9th Music on The Green event raised vital funds for the Ipswich Children's Hospice and the Martlesham Responders, with organisers saying it appeared to be one of their best ever attendances. Among more than 20 bands providing entertainment from 10.30am through until 10.30pm were headliners Stingray and Anything But Ordinary"

From Una (Party host - 19/01/08)

"I hired ABO for my special birthday party and they were absolutely brilliant. Their music is superb.
A well put together band giving out a tremendous sound.
I would thoroughly recommend them to any of my friends and family"

From the Groom (Wantisden Wedding - 31/08/07)

"Please pass on my thanks to the rest of the band, both sets you played were fantastic and got everyone up on the dance floor. It was everything we hoped for.... and more.
So many people have commented to me since then on how good you were!
If I ever hear of anyone looking for a band to play at a function I would recommend you guys every time..."

From Vicky F (a fan)

"Thought you were really good at the support gig & wanted to hear more from you. I enjoyed the whole evening but it would have been good if you had a longer set! I think  you got the room humming. Everyone I've spoken to felt that you were the best that evening. I'll come to see you again..."
From Brian T (co-organiser of ICENI event - 11/5/2007)

"Thanking you and your colleagues for all your efforts, mine was the easy part - i.e. listening and drinking at the gig!
Sincere thanks from all of us...."
From Mark J (organiser of 'Woodedz' event - 21/9/2007)

"Please pass on my thanks to the band, I had tried to speak to them afterwards. What I heard sounded excellent..."
From Hayley S (co-organiser of 'Woodedz event - 21/9/2007)

"Really enjoyed your band on Friday and if the positive feedback I have had so far is anything to go by, so did everyone else! You were certainly the stars of the evening!"
