Thanks so much for the holiday message - I just bought the Joy of
Christmas CD and love it. The whole family loves it especially after
seeing the Buckinghams in concert last year. I was happy to see how
much our children (in their 20's) love your music. They knew the words
to every song. We are really looking forward to the concert at the Star
Plaza in January. On behalf of our family, we wish you and your
families a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and thanks so much for your gift ofmusic to everyone. The D'Ambrosio's of Oak Forest, Illinois

Hi Carl,

Just wanted to say that last nite's concert was GREAT! as always. Love the new songs!
I would have liked to come by and say hi, but my friend had to leave right after. Boy, what a crowd!
I go to several concerts there over the summer and there is never a crowd like that for any of the other groups. Highland Park will also be very crowded. They have a big art fair over the weekend that brings in
lots of people, so you are assured a huge crowd. The streets are closed down and there are lots of
great food tents, so it's like a huge street party. I've emailed all my clients that live there to let
them know. Many are Buckingham fans.

Hope all is well, and see you soon,
Ruth

Italian Heritage Fest Oct.17,2009
comments: Just wanted to say that we saw you at the Italian Fest on Oakley last weekend (my daughter was the bartender at Ignatz) and even though we all froze it was a great concert. We love music from the 60's and The Buckinghams sounded great. It's nice to see a band that's been around a while that still sounds as good as you do. Hope to see you again soon.

comments: Hi, Carl! I went ahead and bought your "Live and Well" CD and it arrived today. HOLY COW!!! It is one of the best CDs I've ever heard!! I just turned 55 a few days ago, so I am old enough to remember you guys from the early 60s. This CD really ROCKS!! Have you heard Felix Cavaliere's live CD from several years back? Yours rivals his!! I'm a big Rascals fan from way back. You guys definiteloy do justice to the Rascals covers you did on this album. Definitely recommending this to all of my friends. I am a member of both the Gary Puckett and Monkees fan clubs. Emailed everyone tonite!! Come to Pennsylvania!! I live near Philly!Take care!!Love your music!! Susan is my favorite song!
