Now that I'm a few months in working with Jimmy, I find him to be very thoughtful, organized, professional and able to pace our lessons to match my (lack of) skills and experience. He'd be great for beginners as well as seasoned guitar players. Very well structured lesson plan that is actually teaching me to play the instrument, not just a few songs that I would like to play. One day I expect to be able to play any song with the knowledge I gain from my time with Jimmy. 5 star rating is well earned so far!! Highly recommended!!

Very accommodating 4-5 times a year I have asked the to reschedule and they have obliged without fail. 2. We migrated from another country and English is not our first language my son was helped throughout by breaking sentences, he could now fake American accent . 3. Timely update was given on his progress. 4. Just to better utilize time I have started guitar classes Areilla i think it is great option instead of sitting outside waiting for your kids to finish classes. Now why not 5 stars - as a culture we push our kids a little more.

Agree teachers are great but admin/owner is terrible…read more If you cancel a session the day of because your child is sick, you just lose that day/money and are not offered a make-up because it's a 'late cancel'. Apparently, they want you to upgrade the package in order to be able to cancel if your child is sick? A fair sick cancellation policy should NOT be dependent on a more expensive package. That's completely ridiculous. Meanwhile, if the instructor 'late cancels', we don't get a refund....instead, we are forced to do a make-up session even when the make-up times/days is not convenient for us. We don't get a refund....they make sure THEY don't lose money, but you are out of luck if your child wakes up sick.

I used Exit Row Band once for an event I hosted after hearing them perform several times at town…read moreconcerts in New Jersey. They're a cover band that does a great mix of classic rock covers as well as new top 40 hits. What a great band! They were an absolute pleasure to deal with, everyone was extremely professional and on time. They took really short breaks and even played late because everyone was having so much fun. We had about 300 people and the dance floor was PACKED! All my guests were thrilled with their performance and didn't want it to end. If you're looking for high-quality music for a corporate event or a private function I highly recommend them!

Anyone who attended the GYE at Kean's Liberty Hall Museum had the opportunity to view, listen, and…read morejam to this cover band. I was one of those who did. This band performed hits from the 80s, 90s, 2000s, and now. If I was to summarize this type of playlist the band was performing, I would say "Hot Adult Contemporary". As soon as the attendees rolled into the event tent, the band started rocking away. They played a mixture of rock and pop hits throughout the entire event duration. That gave everyone the chance to view, listen, and even sing a long to their performances. What a way to bring great people together, Ed Z! The band was rocking so loud that we could even hear them outside when my friends and I went to the pumpkin patch and house to snap some photos. The original plan was for them to perform outside. But because of the rain, they had to perform inside. This weather-related change didn't hurt their spirit at all. In fact, they performed without even caring about the rain. This band no doubt has an edge over some of the other bands whom I encountered on my previous 25th cruise, which is based on their performance qualities and professionalism. Based on how they performed, it was quite easy for me to see and hear why they are always booked and only have a very limited amount of time for public events. For this case, the General Yelp Event was a private one. Overall, this is an excellent cover band, and probably the best one that I have ever heard. If you can catch them at a public event, then I recommend doing so. I also recommend booking them if you can.

On another note, the house band came to play at a fundraiser we are very involved in. The talent of these kids was a shock to so many who watched them walk in and didn't know what to expect. The band played for an hour and we must have had 15 people comment to us on how much they sounded like Jimmy Page, Nancy Wilson and so many of the others they covered. They were amazing. 2 of them are national SOR all stars too, so we actually had celebrities on stage! The drummer did a solo that was reminiscent of Mickey Hart or Bill Kreutzmann, only not 45 minutes long and the bass and electric guitars were just as amazing. These kids can rock.

I never had the opportunity to meet the DJ ahead of time---which I found very strange sinmce all other events I have had DJs for previously, I was able to sit down with the DJ ahead of time and discuss details for the party. I was told the DJ would contact me ahead of time---he finally called two days before the party and left a message---I called back that same day, as well as several times over the next two days and was never able to contact him---only a stupid message. Getting nervous, I called Primetime and was told not to worry he was one of their best DJs----While setting up the party, I received a call about an hour before the party was to start saying the original DJ could not come and they were sending a replacement. Guests started arriving at 6:30pm, the DJ showed up at close to 7pm and did not start playing until 7:15---and then the music he played was more appropriate for old people, not the roomful of teenagers present---"muzak" during dinner, and then he didn't have half the music the guests requested---he also brough his son who proceeded to run around the whole party barefoot. People left early, my daughter was in tears, and overall this was a miserable experience that ruined her HS graduation party---NEVER AGAIN!!!!!

Theater was clean and well kept. The theater space itself isn't huge but sound for our kids' show…read morewas just fine, and seats didn't feel crowded nor did the kids seem to have visibility issues in adult chairs even when adults were seated in front of them. Staff were organized and friendly. I had my purse searched upon entry; all bags were looked at. My ticket was purchased through Vivid Seats, and apparently they didn't provide me a legit theater-issued QR so I had to visit the box office. They were friendly and promptly issued me printed tickets. Lobby was a con because it's just small and cramped. This old building probably didn't have to house as much food and merch purchasing back in its day but the multiple concession lines were blocking people from just getting to the theater and accessing their seats. They have tons of low quality junk food for sale. The huge group sitting next to us had chicken fingers, fries, a ketchup smell that wouldn't go away... it was honestly ridiculous the food they allow in people's laps just to turn profits. I was surprised these people were buying full huge meals (that had to cost $40+ each for junk) at 3:30pm to hold it in their laps for a 1.75h kids' show. Whatever. Point is, if you haven't eaten and want to pay $40 for crap that will linger in your body, you will not go hungry here. Clean bathrooms were the right size to allow a packed house to process themselves in the 20min intermission timeframe. This includes the ladies room, which always takes longer, and it was for a kids' show, which adds even more time. I recommend pairing your visit with the Rutgers Zimmerli Art Museum if you have time. They are open until 6pm most nights.

Great night at THE State Theatre! I won tickets for a Ladies Night concert with Raheem DeVaughn and…read moreEric Benét, orchestra level, row P, seats 109/110. Perfect view of the stage, but I don't think it really matters much where you are seated due to the design of the auditorium. The opener was a rising singer/songwriter named Aniyyah, born and raised in New Jersey. Aniyyah's DJ had some technical issues loading her music at the start of her set, but wow, she has a voice on her. She, along with Raheem DeVaughn and Eric made for a fantastic show. They are all extremely talented vocalists, but Raheem DeVaughn without a doubt stole the show with his stage presence. Eric Benét however truly surprised me. His voice is absolutely incredible live. The State Theatre did a major renovation back in 2020 and the interior was previously renovated in 2004. It's as if we have a piece of Broadway right in the middle of New Brunswick, New Jersey. I felt like I stepped right into the 1920s with their vintage design and architecture. The acoustics inside the theatre are phenomenal. I'm not sure if it was my seating, but the sound was so crisp and well balanced. I can understand why any artist would choose this theatre as their preferred venue to perform in. One important note is their designated passageway to the closest parking deck which would otherwise be a long walk in the freezing cold. We were able to use the enclosed heated hallway as a shortcut which leads directly from the garage to the State Theatre located on Livingston Ave. We almost walked right past the entrance to the passageway, so I wanted to make sure I shared it with anyone who has read this far into my review : ) It's been many years since I've come to see a show here, and I had an enjoyable experience. I look forward to checking out any of their other events in the near future.

These kids have been through a lot, not able to finish out Senior year, no prom, no graduation, no celebrations for these monumental events.. we thought we would cheer them up with ballon columns. PAID them well in advance of our date needed and they charged an additional $100 for delivery, so basically would have been over $300 for each order. Well they were NO SHOWS the Day of, I called an hour AFTER they were supposed to arrive for the 18th bday and they said 'oh it will take us a few hours' then they decided they wouldn't come at all because we were 'too far away' (even though they charged us $100 for the 35 min drive) So needless to say we needed to find another company for the 16th bday celebration and boy are we glad we did!!
