As you can see, as soon as I got home from the concert held in Abington with Joe Bargar, I had to visit your website. Awesome!
I knew when I heard you that you were something special. After reading your bio, I feel pretty good about my judgement. Can't wait to hear your CD.
Hope to hear you in person again...I think the folks in the Abington audience now realize what a really good musician sounds like. We were so fortunate that you were free to play with Joe Bargar and the Soul Providers for our summer concert.
Thanks for doing what you do.
Sincerely,
Nancy Reid

Many are still mesmerised by the introduction lead in you did with the saxophone for Paradise Is Here during your tour with Tina Turner on her Break Every Rule World Tour. People are still commenting on it whenever they watch that segment on the Internet! Thank you.

Hello Deric,
My name is Jim aka "Saxman" Kruglak
Ive been playing sax since I was 8 yrs old
im now 46
you are one of my major influences as far as sax players.
Im now in a local boston cover band called "Good Question"
I have been messing around with different mouthpieces and reed strengths to get the best sound
I use University Music in Lowell to buy gear
there the only place close to me besides having
to go into Boston to Rayburns.
I have an original Selmer Mark VI tenor circa 1962
I use a Ponzel #2 mouthpiece with a Rovner ligature
and Rico royal #3 I get a pretty fat sound
but cant seem to keep the High notes in tune
I would like to ask you what you use for gear,
and also about the wireless mike set up.
and lastly
do you give lessons?
thank you
Jim

Hi Deric!
I just want to tell you how much I enjoyed your performance at The Grog Restaurant in Newburyport this past Sunday evening. I am a fairly new fan and have purchased several CD's after hearing you on Jordan Rich's program on WBZ. Three friends and I drove up from Connecticut for the weekend and we specifically went so that we could listen to your music. You are all such talented performers and it was an honor to be part of the audience. Thank you so much! Hopefully, you will be performing again in the New England area. My best to you.

Deric - My good friend Martha C. was on top of her game at the Parker House as expected, but you, your bandmates and Christine are what really made the evening memorable for me. What a great surprise and pleasure to hear and feel your music (at a political rally no less) ... you left me wanting more! Thanks again for the CD - I listened to it all the way home and shared it with my boys the next day. Are your earlier ones available for purchase? Hope to catch you at one of your upcoming gigs with my significant other ... and to help persuade Martha and Tom to have all of you back for an encore at her victory celebration in January. Best regards, Tim

Hey bye,
Good to see you in Bda. Sorry I didn't get to hear more of your set, but what I did manage to catch sounded great. When you get a chance send me your e-mail address and the pic of us the last time we had a session at Ann's birthday. If you send me your phone number I'll let you know in advance when I'll be in Boston, and hopefully we can catch up.
Best to the family,

Deric, I am so proud of you and all of your successes - I know that you have worked unbelievably hard for each achievement. When we were 13 in BDA I asked you to"remember the little people when you make it big" and you certainly have. I really enjoy your music and am so glad that we have remained friends for all of these years! Wishing you all the best in all that you do and all the best to your family too.

Hi Deek - Dave treated me to a copy of your CD 'No One's Sleeping' - just great! Great sounding horn charts - great grooves - guitar - awesome organ - huge Mitch fan - but most of all, just ridiculous sax - I listened on a long drive and was smiling and laughing all the way. I continue to *love* the way you play.
I remember the time I saw you and Muzz with Steve Cataldo at the WAAF / Channel 38 gig in Worcester. You were a standout then, and remain a standout today.
I regret that FH didn't pan out - and regret that it created a gulf between you and I - but you remain so much a 'right-on-the-money-guy' in my view, and this new record seals the deal
Your humble fan,
Charlie!
