After our last set, an audience member asks,
"Who is the guitarist that influenced you the most?"
After thinking about it for half a minute I said, "Wes Montgomery."
The entire table of guests roared in laughter,
"I knew it." "Of course." "Told ya."

After a quick YouTube “audition," we hopefully find entertainment gold,
which we did with your group."

"He was a skillful guitarist and had a nice range of music. He was flexible and let a guest join on clarinet (spontaneously). He was gracious and polite in his interactions with the guests. He completed his set on time and as promised. I would not hesitate to hire Tom again.
My guests raved about him afterwards."
