I had Abraxas come to
St. Louis to perform for a Woodstock Celebration I put on, and I got
a lot more than I had bargained for! This band is the ULTIMATE
Santana tribute. They were totally professional, very well mannered
and dressed, and gave us the show of a lifetime. You would really
believe Santana himself was there if you didn't know better. Some
people at the concert actually thought it WAS Santana! They are the
best musicians I have ever been associated with, bar none. I already
plan on bringing them back to St. Louis next year. Thank you Abraxas
for making my party and concert a success. Michelle T., St.
Louis, MO
My daughter brought
me to see Abraxas at the State Fair as she is a friend of the
guitarist. I was shocked at how good you really are. She told me you
were, but after hearing you, and being from the Woodstock
Generation, I believe you are Santana reincarnate. There are no
words to describe how wonderful your band really is. Great!
Wonderful! Powerful! Exquisite! The BEST! These don't begin to tell
the power of Abraxas. Good luck to you in the future. Evelyn A.,

Seeing Abraxas was an
enlightening experience. They touched our hearts and soul with their
sound, just like Santana does in concert. You mesmerized the
audience with your rhythms and feeling. You play from the heart and
people can feel it. I'm from California and have seen other Santana
tributes (we have many of them) but none of them are of the caliber
of Abraxas. If you can't see Santana go see Abraxas, same same.

On Saturday we
thought Santana was playing. We kept hearing the music and when we
finished eating we tracked you down. That wasn't hard to do, just
follow the crowd. It was unbelievable how you put out that wall of
Santana sound, and it was just like his band. We were in town from
California and we bought your CD just to remember you by. I heard a
lot of people talking about you, and it was all very complimentary.
You are the best tribute to Santana we've ever heard, and in So.
Calif. we have several of them, but you are on a different level. Victor
and Kimmy S., El Cajon, CA
Saturday night was a
special night. I brought my Mom and Dad to listen to the best
Santana anywhere. They are a couple of ex-flower children, and they
didn't expect much, even though I told them how good you were. Well,
they are Abraxas fans now. Dannie, Gregory and Pamela, SLC, UT
Caught your show at
the State Fair on Saturday and was impressed beyond words. Me and
the wife sat for over 2 hours listening and it was like each song
was better than the one before it. I know people were leaving the
grandstand concert to come and listen to your band, we did! Dan
and Arlene, Denver, CO
Only the Greg Rolie
Band (and Santana of course) tops your Santana performance. D.

After seeing your
band perform at the Utah State Fair, all of the other shows we saw
(including Marshall Tucker, etc.) paled in comparison. You guy
freakin' rock! How 7 guys can put out that much sound is amazing,
and you sound just like Santana himself. I know because I heard him
this past spring in Omaha. The only difference was the cost in
tickets. I hope I get the chance to see you again. Xavier C.,
West Valley, UT
I don't know if you
remember me but I was the guy from Memphis that talked to several
band members after your show at Snowbasin in Utah. You guys need to
come to Memphis and play. Your show is too good to be played locally
where you are. You need to take it on the road. My son and I sat
there in the sun for 3 hours so we could keep our front row seats. I
have to tell you that all in all you guys are as close to Santana as
I've ever heard, and Memphis is a huge music city, with a Santana
tribute of our own, but they are not comparable to Abraxas. You all
sound like Santana and have all the percussion and everything. We
saw Santana a couple of months ago and we enjoyed you every bit as
much. Hope to see you again in the near future. Russell R.,
Memphis, TN
We've seen (or
endured so to say) many concerts this summer waiting for Abraxas to
play, and you didn't disappoint us. In fact, you were even better
than when you played last year.The songs you played were the best
of the best of Santana. Your band has a lot of talent. I hope you
guys make a name for yourself. You deserve it. Abraxas is the best
Santana tribute band anywhere. Jonny and Diana, Odgen, UT
Great Santana show on
Sunday guys. How you can play 2 hours in that heat I don't know. I
know the guitar amp blew up or something, but you still finished the
show, and it sounded great. Soul Sacrifice was totally great.
Abraxas is THE band! Ken and Kelly R., Chicago, IL
Abraxas is a great
band. It was very sunny and hot and you still gave a 2 hour show of
the best Santana music I've ever seen played live by anyone except
Santana himself. All the people at the concert thought you were
wonderful. It was the best show of the summer by far. We'll see you
at the State Fair. S. Ascencion, Park City, UT
I saw you last Sunday
at Snowbasin which was awesome. I am a Puerto Rican from
NYC living in Utah so you can imagine how excited I was to hear you
play! I am getting married next July and am hoping you
can be hired to entertain. Please let me know if you are
available. Dalia, Sandy, UT
