Comment: I wanted to see my baby girl as the youngest Dave Steffen Band Fan member or dancer to exist. I also enjoyed working the numerous times you played at Sly's Midtown Salooon. Sincerely Sean Maier (former Sly's bar tender)
Comment: We are looking for Dave Steffen's youngest fan when you played at fountain park. I also was a bartender at Sly's Midtown Salooon and bar tended for at least six personal appearances there.
Comment: Ten Years after we first met on that beautiful tuesday afternoon and a half million miles later we just can't help but determine that your jive has arrived. Thank You, Gracias, Mercie Boku, we love you... Keep on Rockin' in the Free world... Love Jack & Kids (Man you guys are good)
I ran across your website today! I remember you from New Georges in San Rafael!!!!!! I worked there and remember loving the nights that you played there. Great music! Glad to see that you are still rockin'!
Comment: Came across your name on an email from the Downtown Green Bay Chamber and wrote down the date. Can't wait to see your band perform again and revive some memories from 30 years ago at Hollywood Resort and Sun Blind Lion! Also going to visite Itunes and search for new music.

Comment: Dave.. You guys rock - you don't probably remember me but I am Craigs "love-child" - Don't tell Craig because he wasn't aware of me. I saw you in Escanaba when the Love Society bus got stuck in the snow bank. Peace Love and apple pie - guy.
Great gigging with you and Bemis at Turner (and always) I read some of your kudos on your web site and may I add mine. Always a pleasure to perform with such a talented guitarist/vocalist. Keep rockin' and happy holidays
Comment: such an awesome band... really never get tired of seeing you guys.... cant wait for you to come back to door county snake and i as well as the rest of the gang cant wait
Comment: Ja, Dave, Say, I just picked up my third copy of Dave Steffen Vols. I & II, and I was wonderin' whatever happened to those other two guys, Steve Olschesky and Big Ben Dellger? I recall when you played Pulaski that one time and Steve started the field on fire with them bottle rockets. Too much Jeagermeister, I think! Hey, youse guys ought to have a reunion gig once and do them Police tunes. Judy Lane says,"Yo" to yas!
Comment: Hey, Dave!!! I haven't seen either DSB or the 'Benders for WAY too long. Now I am on your mailing list. I hope to see you on the 10th up in Crystal Falls. See you soon!! Judi Kroll
Comment: Hey hey this is Little Vickie's sister. Just wanted to say you guys rock! I really enjoyed your show on March 17th. We're making plans to come see you again.
Comment: Great playin'. I hope to catch a show in the future. Its good to see the blues is alive and well in the area. I moved here a year or so ago. Theres alot of excellent talent here. If you get a chance check our band www.myspace.com/glasshousewi

Say, when are youse guys in DSB gonna play 'Scanaba? I been tellin' these guys up here that I know you, but they think I'm full of it. Say Hi to Posniak when you see him.
I just wanted to say Thank You SOOOO Much again for playing for my mom's party!!! Everyone absolutely loved you! It was the perfect touch for the evening and something that I'm sure my mom will remember forever! It was very good to see you guys again!! Hopefully I'll be able to catch up with you again soon!!
Comment: Dave, Had a great time sitting in for a few songs the other night. You have a great sound and a cool song list. Thanks for the opportunity, Gregg
Comment: Dave...we've been waiting for you to come back to California so we could see you all again! We missed your show last year up there and I'm still kicking myself. We, Trisha and I, miss you all very much and the music out here in LA is just not the same. So, come and play us some of that WI blues so we can feel like we are home. Give yourself, Augie and Craig big sloppy kisses from us.
LeeAnn and Trisha. (Oshkosh WI) PS. We play your cd's out here and people can't get enough of them! Truly!
Comment: WOW -- that's what I've got to say! I'm so glad I saw you guys at the Village Green in Ripon, WI --- I'm playing your CD's now. You guys are so awesome. The talent you have is remarkable! WHEN CRAIG NEUSER CUT LOOSE ON HIS OWN -- I COULDN'T BREATHE! He's not only a musical genious but GOD can he sing too. Craig - you raise my blood pressure! One reason I had to make sure I bought your new CD is Craig's song - Going Home. I hope to see you guys again sometime -- in the meantime, your tunes are blasting out of my car stereo! Pam S in Pennsylvania
Comment: Hey guys, great show on Sunday at Emmer's. Seems every time I see you guys, the band sounds better! And Dave, thanks for playing "Move On" for me again, since I missed it the first time. Gets me on the dance floor every time. Have fun until we meet again!
I must tell you how truly nice it was to visit with you today (7/23/06)at Paperfest / Kimberly, even though it was for only a few minutes. As I mentioned, it's also great to know that you have achieved the success that you have given the odds against most who aspire to make it in the music industry.
Hope to see you again sometime at one of your local gigs. Best wishes to you and your family!
Comment: Just wanted to let you guys know how much we enjoyed the band in Crystal Falls on 7/2. The fans there are alot of fun and really enjoyed you, danced, and had a great time. See you in Menominee on the 20th.
Comment: Thanks Dave. It was a real honor to sit in with you and the band to play a few tunes. Everyone enjoyed the night, and the music. To play the blues is to be American. You made my night that was great. You have one upstanding sound and your style is right on, and the band is awesome. Everyone there enjoyed the night up in Crystal. It is always great to hear your music. Thanks again for inspiring me to play and keep the blues alive. Jamin Little Wing was something I'll never forget. Take care and we'll see you again.
Comment: Hallo David, Wie geht's? Ist du eine polka king now? Ihr Geburtstag Leid war sehr gut! You keep hanging with that Dellger and Baldock gang, and you'll go places, I tell ya! Auf Wiedersehen, Gene from Escanaba (Judy Lane says Hi)
Keith and me (Debbie and kids) and hopefully with mom/Dianne will be at summerfest on the 5th to see you. Can't wait--- been too long. Let me know best times to get together if you can before or after to see eachother not to interfere with your work.
PS - Keith wants you to stay for Freddy Jones on Thurs.
Comment: Hey, I danced to your band at the bar in Sheboygan Falls. Your band rocks! I love to dance, however I almost fell. I still need practice. I can't wait untill the band will play in the Sheboygan area again. Keep up the good work! Thank you for giving me good music to dance to.
Comment: I have seen you guys play in Door County, and at family get-togethers! I have 5 of your cd's, I love each and every song! Thanks guys, keep on rock'in! - Steve Cotton

On a humorous 'note'......"OK, does this mean that now you guys are gonna learn, 'I,m In Love With Stacey's Mom !!!!!!!! I did not see what was under the alleged 'shirt'....however in seeing your reactions I nearly 'peed my pants'. It's All in Fun! Somebody's got to Entertain the Entertainers Right? "Happy Birthday,in Your Birthday Suit Stacey!"
Comment: I was 1st introduced to Dave's music in the late 70's when a friend of mine brought me to some bar along Lake Michigan on a winter's eve to here and see Dave play. I moved away and now 30 years later find myself back in WI and find DSB playing in Fond du Lac. What a joy, then for X-mas, my wife surprises me with 2 CD's of DSb. Thanks a million for your dedication 'cause your music is gold to my ears.
Comment: Hi Guys, "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" Sorry I missed you at the Kickback last Wednesday. Now I am looking forward to Thursday, if you are there. Take care and enjoy today, 'cuz tonite you play.

Comment: Whenever we meet you always ask me if I'm that bald photographer from shawano.
Haven't been able to see any of your shows yet this year. Always a day late! I always pick up an Entertainer to late. I guess it's best to be on your mailing list.
See you on maui, my wife or somebody elses wife and I will be there then too.
Comment: Saw you with Chris Aaron and then Darrel St.John joined you at Emments (sp?) in Appleton in the late 90s. Best music I ever had the pleasure of witnessing.

Comment: Hallo Dave, Wie geht's? I found your website while I was searching for Escanaba real estate. The next time you see D. L. Mains, tell him I can get you guys back into the community hall for big bucks. Do you still have that big bus? Man, talk about a party on wheels, especially when Tubby Gilles imitated his brother, Dave. Crazy! Auf wiedersehen, Gene

Comment: Russ: I can not believe I found you by google search. Boy it has been too long from the GREAT DAYS of Truc of America, in Atlanta, Georgia. I was an avid fan. I drove to Macon, Georgia on a night to see the Band, and you let me hang out with you guys after the gig! I befriended Andy Bigan , the drummer, and to this day listen to my Truc of America tape I bought in Macon, Georgia. EASY Mark was my favorite tune, and you guys played it every show! You also let me on stage to sing Easy Mark with the band at my birthday one night at a bar next to the old limelight in Atlanta. I hope you get this Russ, and email me back. I would love to know where all the other guys are now. Please write me back, and good luck with the Dave Steffen Band "String Benders". You were such a great talent with Truc. How can we not forget: OUTA CONTROL, Charley Atlas, Easy Mark, Clone Love; the skits, costumes, and great music! I wish you guys could reunite!
Happy New Year Billy Viger Roswell, Georgia bviger10@bellsouth.net

I met you at the steak n pub in Wausau in May. Your sound is healing and uplifting. I grooved all the way back to St Louis with your CD. Although Ive been a drummer and have had my hay day in L.A. 72-86 you made me want to bring out the strat and get down on the ole slide.
Thanks for staying in the game. You Brian and Craig...all of you...love and peace....bless you for your great work!

Comment: Like Jay posted earlier, the shows Friday and Saturday at The Paint River Pub in Crystal Falls were outstanding. To have a band of this caliber in our area is truly a rare experience.(Hopefully not as rare from now on though!) I don't think anyone left the bar either night without realizing the what an incredible band this is. For anyone who is reading these posts and has not seen the band, do yourself a favor and make a point of doing so. You WILL NOT be disappointed!!!
Comment: Hey that was an great show up in crystal falls. We hope to see you again. Its nice to hear someone give true meaning to the blues. we enjoy playing it and listening. Daves talent is exceptionally great. You can hear the spirit of Jimi and Stevie Ray playing through Dave. And that is good to hear.
Comment: Just wanted to say congratulations to Craig Neuser on a successful career, he is one of many talented musicians from the Whitelaw area. Also wanted to remind Dave of the old days in Whitelaw out at Big-O's Acres where he and his band would often play, it was one heck of a party!!! Keep up the great music!
Comment: HEY Dave, Craig, and Augy, you guys sounded great at riley tonight and just wanted to say thanks for letting me jam with you guys. I had a lot of fun. Thanks a lot.

Brad Beck from Green Bay.
Comment: we saw the shows on friday nite and sunday at riley tavern. both were excellent and we enjoyed both of them.Can't wait for your next cd. we're the Vic Ferrari fans.
