Just a few Testimonials

 

It’s fair to say that we were all blown away by everything about this show!

It was our privilege to host such an amazing group of musicians. 

Andrew McCarroll

Owner, Uptown Theatre, Marble Falls, TX

give San Antonio Transit my FIVE STAR RATING!

They received a STANDING OVATION at Sugar Land Town Square Concert Series.   First time in the history of this venue.

Such an amazing group.  All positive feedback.  Thank you until next time.

Kim Raney, KP Entertainment and Productions

Booker, Sugar Land Town Square Concert Series

San Antonio Transit is exactly the type of band you want performing at your venue. Professional, responsive, communicative, excellent musicians, crowd pleasers - the works, all rolled into one. This phenomenal tribute to the band Chicago has it all and is a true testament to act they honor. It was a pleasure working with Mike Pinto and his fellow crew of musicians from the first note, to the very last. I look forward to having them back at Fitzgerald’s some day in the near future.

Sharon Perkins

Co-Owner Fitzgerald’s Live Music Venue

We hosted San Antonio Transit Thursday March 23 at 502 Bar.

Show was a sell out plus a few extras.  Having an act of this size is always a bit demanding

given the number of inputs and the stage foot print of the band. Mike and company made this

challenge as easy as anyone could. The band showed up early, was more than prepared on

their end and worked with the production staff to get up and running ahead of

schedule. We highly recommend them and would have them back anytime.

STUNNING!!! TRIBUTE TO CHICAGO  FIVE STAR REVIEW!

I invited 20 of my most important business clients to the show at Sam's Burger Joint in San Antonio. This was my 3rd time attending a show by San Antonio Transit. Many of my clients were former musicians and high school band instructors with high standards. SA Transit BLEW THEIR MINDS! They were spot on and you could "feel" the presence of Chicago in spirit. They would be a band that the Original Band would be honored to be represented by. Don't hesitate to hire them for your corporate event, private party or club. They've sold out every event they've played and for good reason.

Michael Morales

Great Band!   You put us right in the front row of a Chicago's greatest hits concert!"
