Tom, Had to let your fans know that the new CD 'A Sign of the Times' is absolutely
fantastic. Folks, you play it once and you have to play it again. It is a must for your
collection - Gerry Sallie

Good Morning Tom. I wonder if we are related; listened to 2 of your songs and was I
impressed. Having a Family Reunion here in Ontario Canada Sunday May 1, maybe
you could attend and provide entertainment and meet some possible family
members? - Wilma Commerford Telesnicki

Hi Tom. I was on the Andy Cooney cruise and wanted you to know that I really love
your music and I think that you are pretty funny too. Hope that you are doing the
cruise again next year. - Deidra McWilliams Bates

Hello there Tom - We heard you sing in a pub near Shannon airport in 2002 and have
played your disc ever since. - Don Moore

Tom, we just got home early this morning from your November 2010 Ireland & Wales
Tour. We have been on a lot of tours around the world including 2 previously to
Ireland and this tour was the best we have ever had. All the people on the tour
became great friends and it was wonderful to have some of your family with us. You
and Michael were both great. Book us for your 2012. If it's anything like this years it
will be the best ever. Until we see you again, thanks. - Terry and Jan Almy

Hi Tom I was @ Meades pub in September with Jim Monoghan and helped with one
of your songs. I am from NC in the states and you said you would be in
Charlotte....when was that? I would love to hear you again. Slainte'. - Mel

I helped you with Black Velvet Band at John Meade's on October 8th. It was so much
fun! Thanks again from everyone in our group :). - Veronica

Thanks also to the bar staff Micheal & Gavin etc. - Phil & Jacqui of Liverpool

Hi, Tom. My mom and I saw you at Jack Meade's in July 2010 with Brendan Tours
(Noreen was our guide). I helped with Black Velvet Band. Just wanted to say it was
one of my favorite experiences on the tour. - Kelly

Tom, we had a blast catching you at the Marble City Bar in Kilkenny. Seems so long
ago and yet it's been barely a week since we were there. Can't wait to catch you in
the act again someday! Your two long-distance fans, Bob & Nancy from Cal-i-forn-I-A
:-) - Bob McMahon

Really enjoyed your gig at Langtons on Sunday night. Will def check out the Whole
Shabang facebook page!!!! - Colette Cummins

Hi Tommy, My sister and I (from Boston) saw you last week at Doolan's. You were
terrific! And we love the CD!!! Keep on keepin' on -- you've a great voice. If you're ever
in the States again, please post on your website or send out an email! Thanks. - Kay
Keenan

It was so much fun listening to you @ John Meade's Pub. We were with a group from
California with Brendan Tours..our tour guide was Marian Kelley...We bought three of
your CD's and we listen to them all the time. We loved our tour of Ireland and you
made it very memorable. Hopefully, we will be able to see you perform in the United
States. Thanks again... - Don & Carolyn

Good to see you again. We had a great nite . - Mcgrath Family Dungarvan

Just found your website. Good to "see" you again. - Pat Hawes

So here I sit about 5 years after going to Ireland and seeing you play on St. Patrick's
Day listening to the CD I bought...wishing I was back in Ireland and hoping that very
soon I will be able to go back again. It was an amazing trip! - Lisa

The first time I was acquainted with your music was actually when I saw you perform
at a pub in a little fishing village back in 1999 (I think it was).. nearly 10 years later the
memory of your soulful dedication to the wayward sons of Ireland stands with me as I
fill out the applications for immigration.. thank you again and keep singing us all back
home. :) - Keith Henson

Hi Tom! Still reliving and enjoying the memories of our pub visit with you in Sept
2002. Listen to your CD's and now am ordering one for my 2nd cousin...born
Dec.14th Start her off the right way...the Irish Way!!! Blessings to you and yours -
Kathy Strom

Just returned to Oklahoma from the cruise. I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to
another performance. Thanks! - Mary Ellen

Heard you sing in a Pub outside of Waterford in August. I was part of a tour group
from the Maasdam. Bought 2 of your CD's and listen to them every day. They are
great. I am ordering your Christmas CD today. - Marie Giddings

I saw you in early September on a Globus trip with Ian Walker. My husband was sick
and did not get to see you that night. I am so glad I purchased 2 of your Pub CD's. We
have really enjoyed listening to them and re living the magical trip we made to
Ireland. Thank you! - Connie Anthony

Tom, Just a line to say hello and glad to see all is going well for you. I'm still riding
the Harley listening to irish music but its becoming hard to get cassettes. The
Organized Rhyme just broke which made me think about how long its been since i've
been to your site. Kid's are getting big your's and my grand children. Luck to all and
god bless. PS. I'm still plumbing - John Comerford

Hi Tommy! The Hart family still talks about you. We play your CD weekly and
reminisce about our trip to Ireland. Happy to hear all is going well! - Jennifer
Schaffer

Tommy - Great to see you! When will you be here again...I am living in Southern NJ -
over the bridge from Philadelphia. Would love to see you sometime soon! All the
best and enjoyed the website!. - Sheila McGirl

Hi Tom, great web site, and you are looking good (and this coming from an old lady).
Hope you are going to be able to make the US soon, have kids all over now, Jace
(the one you met) is in Portland, Kevin and Jeff are in Florida. Got those yappy dogs
under control...guess their Mexican parents don't like Irish music, they take them
inside when I play your CD's. - Dorothy

Hi Tommy, Just came accross your web site. Haven't seen you since your Shabang
day at Coney Island & Belmont. Hope to meet up with you in the not so distant future.
Wishing you every success.- Andy & Pauline

Thanks for the great time at the Bally Inn & the Wharf Tavern!. - Anastasia

Hi Tom, nice website, glad I found it. Had a great time with you all in Waterford,
can't wait to do it again. - John Meehan

Just returned from Cruise '09. What a blast! Little House, Little Street was awesome.
It's a hit! - Kathy Kamerer

I first saw Tom when I was 16 years old and it was my first time in Ireland. I bought
his cd, Organised Rhyme and listened too it all the way around the Ring of Kerry. I
have ordered 2 cd's already and can't wait to listen to them. - Kristen

Love the new site, Tom. Thanks for everything! Slainte - Mary & Mareena

HI Tom--it's your one and only UNICORN gal!!! I heard that song the other day, and
the flashback of memories just made me laugh!! Didn't you say that song was going
to be on your next CD and dedicated to me???? Love the new site! Hope to see you
soon! - Claire Connors

Hey Handsome! Can I still write to the other email address? Might have a joke or
two for ya! Hope all is well. Still can't find any printed info regarding the November,
2008 tour of Ireland with you. Do I have to call the tour company? Looks like you are
keeping yourself very busy! Do I need to send the photos that I have already sent to
you to this web site? Take Care! - Mary & John Gilbertson

Nice to see our tour companions Don and Jan had good things to say about you. We
were also at The Cosy Thatch on 24 May, 2007 and enjoyed everything about your
performance. My husband isn't very sentimental, but he gets all teary eyed every
time he hears your CD version of Danny Boy. As for myself, I loved everything about
Ireland, but I have two enduring soft spots in my heart. One is for a nice pint of "The
Guinness", the other is for the hours we spent at The Cosy Thatch listening to your
music. Hope you make it to the Yosemite area of Northern California one of these
days. You have two loyal fans waiting. - Lois & Fred

So happy to hear of your success since leaving the "Whole
Shabang" ... we saw you many times here in NJ together with Sal Sellitto and
Bobby A. Best of luck to you always! - Melody

Howya fixed for a few large......great CD - Sonny

Howdy, Tommy !!!
I am so pleased to find your website. I really enjoyed how you did 'Danny Boy' in the
traditional manner and 40 shades of Green' by my hero, Johnny Cash. I plan on
taking another tour to Ireland next September / October. Thank you for such a
wonderful experience. Harold "Woody" Thomas - San Antonio, Texas

Well tommy, sophie and rachel here, lovin the website its not half bad we must say.
-Slan!!!

My daughter and I had a wonderful time listening to your music and I hope to visit

Dear Tom,Wish you all the best in all you do.Say hello to everyone keep up the good
work.Hope to see yous in 2007. - Rosalie

I am rarely motivated to write an opinion on anything, especially music. However, I
want to comment on 'Face The Music'. Tom did a masterful job making this CD, and
had a great group of 'players' as well! Not only are the songs compelling in their
emotion and messages, but written 'from the heart'. You can tell, just by listening
once, that this CD is a major work of art, not just music. It is one of the finest 'listens'
I have ever heard in a CD. It has all of the elements one could ask for, hooks, clever
writing styles/lyrics, variety, and innovation of sounds. I count 3-4 'hits' on this one,
and the rest are what I call 'growers'. They grow on you until they become favorites
too. Furthermore, I hear no throw-away filler songs, like many artists seem to use to
round out an effort. I doubt even Tom knows how good this CD really is [and I say
that knowing Tom realizes 'where I'm coming from' with a comment like
that!].......This is a timeless CD for the ages, for any and all music lovers. - Scott

My husband and I really enjoyed our trip and we hope to visit Ireland and Waterford
again. Thanks, - Paula Smith

We'll be on the 2006 Cruise of the Irish stars and I look forward to meeting you - a
Comerford from across the pond! - Nancy Comerford Noble

Hello Tom, As I told you in my email to you Dec.2005 you made Ireland come alive for
us. We have sang Irish songs all our lives with our ancestors who I know they were
there in spirit singing with us. Thank You. - Pat & John Burkhardt, Dayton Ohio

Hello Tom: I'm the tall fireman from Philly who sold your CDs and t shirts down
Jimmy's in No. Wildwood, NJ. You guys were great. Your site is excellent. Hope all is
well.Your friend. - Joe Bradley

Getting terrific feedback from our listeners over "Organised Rhyme". What a fantastic
CD, Tom!! Do keep up the great work & we'll keep playing you. Good luck with all
your efforts. - Mary & Mareena McGirr "Proud to be Irish" WVCR FM, Albany, New York.

Hi Tommy, We saw you at the pub outside Waterford on 5/24/07 as part of our
Globus Tour. It was definitely one of the highlights of our tour. Thanks for a great
time! Glad we bought the CD, too. Besides all the fun, you can really sing. Loved the
way you performed Danny Boy and The Forty Shades of Green. Hope to see you again
sometime as we travel. Thanks again, - Don & Jan
