We saw you at Summerfest yesterday (Tuesday), and liked you best of all the bands we saw. I will be looking for you in the future when you're playing in Chicagoland.
June 27, 2011 @03:44 pm
Reverend: Did you hear the bad news ... the Roadhouse in Carlsville, WI, burned to the ground. It was there that my wife, Patti, and I were first introduced to "RR&TCSAB;." See you Tuesday!
June 18, 2011 @04:56 pm
Had a great time at the Bluesfest in St. Peter and at Willys Tavern. We have been listening to your CD non-stop ever since and are looking at events later in the summer we can attend. I get happy feet when I hear your music! Thanks for the great time!
June 17, 2011 @07:23 am
Big blues fan. Just turned on to you guys listening to a blues radio show on Marthas Vineyard. Great sound...maybe you'll make it this way sometime.
June 13, 2011 @12:56 am
Kick Ass tunes. Thanks
June 10, 2011 @10:08 pm
Been looking for your song "Jingle my Jangle" or something like that - was told I could get it on your website but have not been able to find it. Can you point me in the right direction to be able to get to the song on your website? Please and thank you
May 18, 2011 @03:50 pm
Loved you guys in Milwaukee, but live in Las Vegas now. Any chance of you guys coming here?

I like the new website. Very pleasing to the eyes.
March 24, 2011 @02:26 am
WOW... cool new website!
February 10, 2011 @07:10 pm
Saw the Reverend and his boys at the Slippery Noodle in Indianapolis last week. They never disappoint the audience. When they are within 100 or so miles from our home we make it a point to see them. I describe their music as jumping blues.
January 13, 2011 @02:12 pm
Great Band and friendly.
January 08, 2011 @10:27 am
the show on nye with cranston was awesome hope you both do it again next year
January 02, 2011 @04:15 pm
Hi-jacked this from the Bayfront Blues Board:
Reverend Raven and the Chain-Smoking Alter Boys burned down the Ramada, last night (NYE)! They were so smokin' hot, they melted all the snow !
Great seeing everyone. Happy New Year to those blues folks that I did not get a chance to talk to.
(Roz)
I couldn't agree with you more. I really believe that many Blues fans feel they have become the "premiere band" in the Upper Midwest. Hearing Bruce McCabe play with the Altar Boys on NYE, brings back sweet memories of when Mickey Larson (RIP) was playing the "keys" with Rev. This is reason enough to pick up the new CD, "Shake Your Boogie", where Mickey is featured along with some old cuts with Madison Slim. If you like this band, this Cd is a "must have" that truly captures the "live sound" of this great band. Do yourself a favor a get a copy.
Happy New Year,
Gentleman Jim
December 27, 2010 @10:05 am
The new CD looks great and sounds great, definitely the tightest album so far. Loved the show at O'Marros Dec 18th!
December 06, 2010 @09:53 am
Great show at Blues Saloon on Saturday night! I picked up the new CD "Shake Your Boogie" and it is wonderful. In my opinion, it is the best yet and belongs in every stocking this Christmas.
December 06, 2010 @01:15 am
for my uncle bobby sellers, this is paul and you will see me in orlando at bb kings jan. 26th
November 15, 2010 @09:43 pm

November 14, 2010 @01:45 pm
I saw you guys at BBKings in Orlando. Fan-Bl**dy-Tastic! Waht a great night. Back in the UK I am now listening to 'Shake Your Boogie' to bring back the memories.
Keep on Chillin'.
Jules
November 13, 2010 @01:55 pm
just got my copy of shake your boogie from cdbaby. I've been a loyal Reverend Raven fan for some time now. Great line up of blues musicians. Can't find words to describe how much I like shake your boogie. SOLID , AWESOME and a must have for any serious blues fan.
Eddie--Fond du lac, Wi
November 13, 2010 @08:42 am
I've been seeing you guys annually at the Bayfront Blues Fest. Had a craving for you and was willing to travel to Milwaukee to see you before the new year and to my delight you are playing at the Saratoga Dec 5th!! So excited! I'll be there with a bunch of girls to dance the night away!

You guys rock. I love it.Thanks
September 16, 2010 @10:25 pm

Well "Mother S." & I just had a fabulous time in Fairmont,MN. And the face of surprise you & 'The Boys' gave us was well worth the energy for the trip. Perhaps next time there, the Farmer Boys will be better behaved w/o the local constapole(s) in attendance. Still sounding GREAT after all these years!!!
August 23, 2010 @10:40 am
Hey Rev, you and the alter boys sound the best! ♫♪ A special hi to Bobby!

July 11, 2010 @12:56 pm
We saw you show last night in Clear Lake Iowa. Just fantastic, you guys are great. The first time we saw you was when you opened for BB King at the Surf Ballroom. After that show we were hooked on your sound. Last nights show topped the Surf performance. Last we were in awe. First with how friendly you and the guys were when we chatted before the show and signed our new tshirts and the show was totally unbelieveable. Oh my god can Big Al play the sax I think he came out of his mama playing it!! The Reverends guitar playing was perfect! We loved it when you walked out into the crowd while continuing to play I guess the days of tied to the stage with a cord is history, just loved it!! Thanks for the great show and we hope you come back to our area again soon. We will be checking your schedule to see if any upcoming gigs are close enough to drive to. We are hooked on your sound and you will be seeing us again. THANKS!!
July 08, 2010 @09:07 am
Saw you in Saskatoon
a while back and was totally blown away with the performance.
I sure hope to see the Reverend preach his gospel again.
July 05, 2010 @03:52 pm
Summerfest, Sawdust Days and Blues in the Cornfield--what a run!!! This band is HOT. I swear, THE BEST blues band in the land. Will see you guys in Lake Geneva and then -- Las Vegas!!

Wow! What a show Saturday night. Bill and I were blown away. Can't wait for the next CD! Cheers.
December 20, 2009 @12:21 am
A couple of typos (beeritis ya know). It should read "I like watching you walk" in the second verse. And the last line in the second verse should read "Makes me want to sing."
But overall, I am pleased with this song. I think It's not too bad considering I've had a few drinks tonight.
December 19, 2009 @11:56 pm
Loved your show tonight! A different style of blues that I loved Your style made me come up with this song after the show.
Wife for the night
Copyright 2009 David McCallister crazymactech@gmail.com
You excite me baby
Such a sexy lady
You're looking so fine
Wish you were mine
I like walking you walk
Your moves stall my talk
The way you move everything
Make me want to sing
Never seen a woman so fine
I want to make you mine
Getting with you would be just right
Would you be my wife for the night
Would you shake my world
Would you be my naughty girl
Wold you hold me real tight
Would you be my wife for the night
Do you have a sugar daddy
Lord I want to be your daddy
Get with me for the night
It would feel just right
Do you have a man
Does he understand
Does he treat you right
Would you be my wife for the night
Have you ever watched
A video where you walked
Such a sweet sweet scene
It's every man's dream
I love it when you wear those high heels
Your body moves with such appeal
Everything is looking just right
Would you be my wife for the night
December 19, 2009 @10:24 pm
We love you Rev!!! Please make it back to Indy and the Slippery Noodle soon!

Last weekend I attended Mary Jo and Dan's wedding in Goodman Park. First of all, I have to say I sincerly enjoyed your show. Living in the woods we do not get much live music and it doesn't get any better than your live blue!! Thank-you!
I am trying to track down my missing sunglasses (brown/black Ralph Lauren) and thought I would check on the off chance that one of the bank member picked them up by accident. If so, please provide me with an address and I will send you a self addressed envelope.
Once again thanks for the great show! Julie
August 14, 2009 @09:53 am
Awesome as usual at state fair last night
August 13, 2009 @10:56 pm
I saw you guys at the Hody Bar in Middleton a couple weeks ago. I grew up there with my friend Jen who I hadn't reconnected with in years. Needless to say, it was one of the best nights of our lives. Who knew Middleton could be so rockin? We talked to Bobby for a bit and had hoped to catch you guys at the Union but missed ya. Hope to see you when you're back in 'ol Wisco. Thanks!
August 13, 2009 @09:25 pm
Friend of Jeff's from Deerfield, Illinois. Came to West Allis last night to hear you guys for the first time. Telling all my friends at work about you. (and Jeff's fabulous guitar)

Big Bee's "Someday When I'm Dead and Gone" is probably the hottest blues track of this decade!

Hello Reverend Raven and the Chain Smokin Alter Boys! I saw your band sometime back in 2005/2006? in Racine, WI. At the time you did not have a website and I guess I gave up looking. To my surprise I found your website today and I am soooo excited. I am always telling everyone I meet that loves blues like I do, that you are the best blues band around. I am definitly going to catch you all in Milwaukee on the 21st of August!!!!!
Sheri Eisch
August 16, 2008 @05:39 pm
I saw you guys at the Big Bull Blues Fest on August 16th and you stole the show!! I wish I could have seen you jam at the Fillmor but I had to work at 11:00. Hope you are there next year.

July 17, 2008 @07:55 am
Saw your gig in Cleveland at Fat Fish Blues. It had to suck for you, no one was there. For me it was fabulous, I had this GREAT blues band almost all to myself. The band did not seem to mind.They played as if there were 500 people there.Coming to your gig on Sept 27th at Brews Cafe in Grandville Ohio. Look for the Greater Akron Motorcycle club. We will be chearing you on!
Kepp the blues ALVIE!

July 16, 2008 @01:03 am
Hello Raven:
I'm looking to catch up with Madison Slim. He knows me from Seattle (I also know RJ from San Fran.) but now I live in Chicago. I'd like to come check you guys out, regardless, but if there is a date with Slim that would be great.
Thanks,
Jaime Sheets
June 27, 2008 @02:40 am
Was at Summer Fest 6/26/08. What a great performance! Slim is amazing; very very talented person. Of course the Rev. is also very talented and entertaining. I love seeing their performances. I am from Rockton,Il. so I see the performances at Big Cities Lounge in Rockford. I love the harmonica; Slim certainly makes it dance to the music!! Quite the musician!
June 23, 2008 @10:04 pm
Hello Rev:
I first heard you at the Nautical Inn Bar in Door County. I have been a big fan since. I have been out here on the east coast and became friends with Paul Benjamin of the North Atlantic Blues Fest. I told him about you guys and gave him some of your music to sample. I understand that you will be playing at his Time Out PUB in Rockland this fall. This is a great venue and you will have a great time there. I unfortunatly will not be in the area at that time and will miss you. I promise to tell everyone I meet at the Time Out to be sure to not miss your show. FYI the show starts at 7:00 Pm not 9:00. Two sets and the place rocks. This is an amazing place for the Blues as many top national acts and international acts play there. Keep it up and I hope to see you again sometime. In the mean time I have my I POD.
June 19, 2008 @10:33 am
The Train Station Deopt in La Crosse, you Boys were great.you go through life listing to music but the blues linger in your heart forever. I printed out your calendar. I'm not much of a festival person but there are many other places to see you.
Thanks for the good time in La Crosse!
June 13, 2008 @10:24 am
You've always been great, Rev. Been listening to you since ya started! Got you live at Sande's from 2/22/03 with Slim and Rick Holmes on bass. Twas a great show!
Thanks for keepin' the blues alive!

June 09, 2008 @06:16 pm
My first live blues experience was at Blues on 52 Crawdad Festival Chatfield Minnesota June 7. I was entranced by the whole experience. The Rev walking out into the street playing his guitar was the highlight. I believe!! A new fan.
June 07, 2008 @03:29 pm
Absolutely enjoyed listening and dancing to your music at RiverSplash May 30. I'll be listening and dancing again soon. Sincerely, another new fan.
June 04, 2008 @08:29 am

May 25, 2008 @03:32 pm

April 16, 2008 @02:57 pm
What do you have when a lawyer is buried up to his neck in sand?
Not enough sand.
April 16, 2008 @01:52 am
PT! Kay McCarthy here in Boulder Colorado.
I watched you playing on You Tube! That warmed my thoughts tonight. It's been a long time and I hope you remember the last time Michael and I came to see you and Jeff playing in Muskego or Hales Corners.
Reverend Raven is superb - of course.
You're still the greatest bassist, only more so.
If you find yourself touring out here in the wild, wild west, we would love to see you hard at work.
Best Regards,
Kay McCarthy-Hamers
April 13, 2008 @12:28 am

March 20, 2008 @08:14 am
Love your music
March 08, 2008 @09:37 pm

February 18, 2008 @09:51 am
I just got back from Indy yesterday. We spent the weekend at the motorcycle expo. And of course we went to the noodle to hear some blues. Unfortunatly we missed you by a week. It just wasnt the same without the Rev and the boys. Next year you need to book the noodle the second weekend of February so we can hear some Slow Burn. Hope we see you next year.
elden.. and many disapointed fans.
February 17, 2008 @05:00 pm

February 11, 2008 @04:56 pm
Hi Rev, I'm the one who called you today about getting 2 of the Slow Burn CD's at your show in Fargo on 2-9. Please email me so I can send you my address. p.s. your show was AWESOME!!! your were the headliner in my opinion!!!
February 11, 2008 @01:34 pm
Big apology to everyone who showed up at Checker's on Sunday. I cancelled the gig while on the road and didn't get near a computer to send an e-mail. Gig was cancelled because of band member illness and no-one to fill in for the gig.
Best
Rev
February 11, 2008 @10:45 am
Received recent communication from Mother Superior. Many thanx! Thrilled to discover future booking at Thirsty Ear in Columbus-can,t wait! Fat Fish Blue in Cleveland is an excellent venue-strongly recommend Jennie Pennies Chicken & Biscuits-YUM!
February 11, 2008 @04:51 am
It would have been a wonderful idea for someone to let us folks in Iowa know that last nights show had been canceled. A few of us once die-hard fans ventured out in the cold and drove to Checkers. Big big disappointment. Checked the web site before leaving. Hmmmm, probably won't be as eager next time.
February 10, 2008 @10:58 am
Really enjoyed your show in Fargo last night. Hope to see you again somewhere.
February 09, 2008 @07:41 pm
Here's hoping the sudden chill doesn't keep you away. Looking forward to tommorw at Checkers
February 08, 2008 @08:57 am
I know this is "kinda" like preachin' to the choir, but just want to thank the "Rev" for another wonderful night of music last night at Neumann's Bar in N St Paul. As always, it was a very rewarding evening. I can't think of another band that captures the sound & beat like these guys. Have a wonderful trip to the "Islands"
The Best,
Gentleman Jim & Virginia
February 07, 2008 @07:40 pm

Hey Everybody!
I've been lurking for awhile but this is a really cool forum so I decided to
jump in and get my feet wet. I'm new at this so I don't have much to
say but it's been real educational reading here and I look forward to
participating.
August 13, 2007 @12:16 pm
Had the great pleasure of hearing the "Rev" in Duluth during the Bayfront Blues Fest weekend. I brought a group of people that had never seen him before. Of course, they are all now disciples!!!! It just doesn't get much better.
Thanks Rev

Really enjoyed your performance/music! Thanks for coming to the Sauk Valley and hope you will return to the land of "the proud, the pink, the petunias"!
You mentioned something about being a blues "educational resource"...would you please email the info so I can pass it on to our music teacher?
Again....great time....we need you to come back and play at one of our local venues.
July 07, 2007 @07:41 am
Opening for B.B. King at the Surf had to have been an honor! You guys rocked the house and hope to see you play there again as a headliner! FANTASTIC!

Keep it real
Adam
June 06, 2007 @11:26 am
I saw you guys for the first time on 05/25 at the Hody in Middleton. That was unbelievable. Really. Amazing sound...makes it possible for people who can't dance move from somewhere they've never before. ...and easier for people like me who love to dance, find a partner. Looks like I'm going to have to plan a road trip to see you again anytime soon. I'm calling my sister right now so she takes her friends to go see you in Appleton tomorrow night.
June 05, 2007 @06:33 pm
To anyone checking out this guestbook...if you haven't seen these guys yet, wahat are you waiting for? Great sound, neat original stuff, a must to see. See ya in Rockford again soon. Harpo Mark
May 25, 2007 @08:09 am
Rev- Remember me??? Drummer from "The Valley?" I used to sit-in with you at the "Harvey-Dome" in Oshkosh. Truly some of my fondest memories was playing with you before you obtained notoriety. Even years ago you I said you were a "Powerhouse" on guitar. There are very few guys who can do as many things as you can do. You always kept the house rock'n and you deserve every award you have earned. Hopefully I will see your show this summer. Seeing the Reverand in action...is truly a "spiritual experience." Bless you and your bandmates...a fan always. Shuggy/ Drummer
May 13, 2007 @06:57 pm
It was really great last night at Thunder Bay. The sax sounded fine.
May 09, 2007 @05:20 pm

Great time in Granville OH on 5MAY07. First time we saw you with Jerry(?)(Harp & Guitar). Continued success & come back soon!
May 07, 2007 @01:56 pm
RevR - Stopped in to check out a new place in Granville, OH on Sat. 5/5/07 and discovered your absolutely fantastic blues band that I didn't know about. Sorry that the crowd wasn't huge - you deserved it! Due to circumstances I couldn't stay for 3rd set. Your guest Ray Fuller was awesome too! Wish you were coming back for the Granville Blues Fest on Sept.15! KEEP ROCKIN!

Hey Guys,
My name is Melissa. My friend and I were @ your show in Des Moines, IA in March. We had such a GREAT TIME!!!!! Probably too much fun! We certainly don't regret it though. I am curious to something I saw in your schedule. I saw you will be in Clear Lake, IA on July, 1st. I am hoping this is correct. We are very excited to see this show. We even have a group planned on being there. However, I want to make certain you will be there. Your response will be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!
Thanks so much!
Melissa

We had a very nice time with you and the "Boys" a few weeks ago in Davenport. The Band sounded very nice,clear & tight. Only problem we had was that the bartender didn't know what a brandy old-fashion/sweet was,lol!!!
March 26, 2007 @04:37 pm
Caught the show last night in Cedar Rapids. The mix of FINE blues and decent tequilla has kept me smilin' clear though today. Baby I still can't st0p movin'. Come back soooooon. Salute.

Thanks!

March 11, 2006 @06:29 pm
Saw you guys last night at the Slippery Noodle in Indianapolis. Wow! I honestly have never really been exposed to any kind of Blues music, but I know good music when I hear it and you guys were awesome! It was such a pleasure to see great musicians who were also down to earth and personable. (Plus Benny is totally hot.) The fact that you had the grandma's up and dancing was pretty cool, too. ;) I can't wait to see you again!
February 26, 2006 @05:32 pm
My buddy and I saw these cats at the Blues on Grand in Des Moines and were blown away!
Best show I have seen in decades! If you get a chance these guys are a must see.
February 16, 2006 @08:23 am
Reverend, you rocked the house in Duluth, MN some time back. What a night of Blues&Booze. Keep on!
January 27, 2006 @07:58 pm
I like the MP3 of "Here comes my baby.". I presume this is on your new CD. When will your new CD be available? Will it be available on CD baby?
