What a great show last weekend at 50 North. This band really rocks! Thank you, Jay, for pulling me on stage for the birthday song...even though I'm shy and I didn't want to go. I did have a good time up there, thanks to your kindness. And I had a great time throughout the show. Don't miss this band! Peace. Edwina P.S.The best of luck to the band in Liverpool; I know you guys will rock. Have fun and keep safe.

P.S. Thanks so much for doing my request, "Number 9 Dream". That song must be a b**** to sing & play, but it is so worth it. You guys did justice to the piece. Very, very nicely done. Thanks for the "river of sound."

Thank you Instant Karma for an absolute blast at Fifty North last night. The energy this band generates is incredible. You guys are amazing! Jay, your tribute to John Lennon is the absolute best and you are heads above the "rest". You're the best because you are an artist. John would have considered you a mate (and a fellow freak!) because you have the same soul, passion and connection to the music that he did. You believe in what you do and that is something real that the audience gets. Thanks for sharing the music and the artistry. Power to the people!

I just have to say that I am quickly becoming a fan of this band. I am so glad I went to see you at 50 North tonight. You played so many great songs and by the way Jay thank you for playing Hey Bulldog. Glad I wore my Instant Karma shirt for you guys. I had such a great time and looking forward to seeing more shows. If we don't get a chance to see you before you go to England be safe over there and have a great time! Take care!

What a great night at the Loft last night!! It was so much fun to be one of the Birthday Ladies on stage and the rest of the evening was wonderful, too! (Although I wonder how Jay can play that tambourine all night and keep on ticking..my hand is still sore.) Thanks again to the band, especially Mr. Alex, and also to my amazing friends who made it a special time. Happy birthday, Bob Blider!! Yay for all the July 'babies'!

Jay, It was great meeting you at the July 3rd block party last night. I share your passion for Lennon & the Beatles and it was great to see someone express it with such energy. What a pleasure to hear you guys not stick to all the 'safe' tunes! My family had a great time. Wish you best of luck in the future and have a great time in Liverpool. Wow! On your way back home don't forget to 'turn left at Greenland'. P.S. Here's a web site for 'Skip Towne & the Greyhounds' (one of the groups I'm playing in) Hope you can check it out & stop in sometime. Thanks from all of our family. Peace. Harry Reinhart

Last night my boyfriend and I saw you guys for the first time. We were BLOWN AWAY. I felt like John Lennon was actually on that stage singing to us. The entire band sounded great, it was such a pleasure to watch and listen to. You have two new big fans! We'll definitely have to come see you at The Loft. Take care and keep up the great work!

Saw the band at Mt Prospect 6/30/05. You were great and was fun to hear songs not usually done by a Lennon-Beatle band. Really surprised to finally find Bo Blider. I have been a fan of his since 1978 seeing him and the original mates at Celebration Lounge. Welcome back Bob. I will now be following you guys and talk to you at your next gig.

IK, you guys were fantastic last night in MP! I am so glad my friends and I decided to give you guys a try. We are huge fans of American English and didn't know how you guys would compare. But we found out that there is no comparison -- you guys are refreshingly different than AE and play so many of their most rocking and soulful hits to the true Beatles fans. I especially loved "...Me and My Monkey" and "I've Got a Feeling." Jay has so much energy and soul, your bass player is incredible. Thanks for giving us an awesome show. I can't believe I've lived in this town my entire life and never knew a John Lennon sound-alike was right in town. Cheers to a great band from maybe the second-biggest Beatles fan now that I know Jay lives here, too...

Jay the solo for your mom, the drummer boy and to walk out on a solo from Phil. Golden slumbers fill the air. Great time had by all. Looking forward to dancing with yas again.

What a tremendous performance you and your band gave us at AROTR! Your enthusiasm and love for John were truly contagious to all around you. We were so fortunate to be sitting up close to the stage, during the "Concert for John". Hope your leg is OK--We were worried about you! Thanks for giving your heart and soul to us in your music. Your mom must be very proud of you. We were unaware of her passing, but she will always be with you in spirit, to lead and guide you. Peace and Love.

Hey guys! Great to see you in Louisville! But next time they've gotta not schedule our sets for the same time because all our mutual friends went to see YOU instead! (Not that I can blame them or anything, but you know...) At least I got to catch the last half of each of your sets! Thrilled that you've added "...me and my monkey" to your setlist - I love that song and I haven't heard anybody play it since...well, ask Bob. ;-) Hope to catch another show soon. :)

Sorry it's tooken so long for this comment, but you guys were absolutly amazing at "Abbey Road on the River" No surprise you were the overall best band there. I loved the Plastico Ono Band songs you played on Saturday. I've never heard anyone do them as well. i'de also like to thank Jay for getting everyone to sing my song at the singalong and to say that I don't think I have ever randomly ran into anyone else as many times in my life. Really, I ran into you at least twice everyday, even monday. I'll defantly be comming to some shows this summer. -peace and love- Alison

I never thought about sending comments directly to you guys after AROTR. I'm sure you've heard it all again and again, but you guys were fabulous. I remember after last year's show telling my friends "you watch, next year IK will be one of the headliners!" and sure enuf! Well deserved, too. You may recall...I was the woman yelling at Jay in the elevator after you guys did "How Do You Sleep?" Well, all is forgiven...you guys were truly one of the highlights of a really great weekend. My sympathies at the loss of your Mom, Jay...I never woulda yelled at you had I known. She must have been very young and I'm certain she's very proud! Now we understand the dedication of "Woman" to her. Keep it up guys...you and British Export are always the highlights for me...there must be something in the water out there in Chicago! Gotta wait a whole 'nuther year...bummer!

We're thrilled you're keeping the 'dream' alive and truly enjoyed your new band a few weeks ago at Fitzgeralds, especially when Phil and the old 'Beatle Brothers' did that brief set with you.

Hey. Just wanted to say you were simply fantastic and Jay with all the energy and moving on stage was great. I know you had as much fun performing as I had watching. Caught all your acts. However the highlight for me at AROTR was the finale. I was one of the fortunate ones to get up on stage and dance to Twist and Shout. When Jay grabed my arm and swung me around I was in 7th heaven. Something I'll aways remember. If I'm not mistaken last year in Cleveland I heard Jay doing a number with another buddy at one of the smaller stages and I said to myself...WOW!!! He's good. I'm hooked. Looking so forward to next year. Just found out about the passing of your mom. My condolences to you and your family. Best regards. Karen

IK, What a pleasure it was to see you guys perform in Louisville. This was my first trip to AROTR and I thought Instant Karma was great. Jay's enthusiasm for the John Lennon's music is infectious and the band's committment to the craft of re-creating the legend's music is superb. Being a part of the hotel sing-alongs on both Sat/Sun was one of the most memorable things I have ever done. And IK was there in the thick of it both nights. Thanks to Bob, Alex, Jay and the others. My only regret ... that I live far, far away from Chicago and won't get to see you guys perform for at least another year. Again, thanks. Keep up the great work!

To Gary Jacobs, the city of Louisville, all the bands and all the wonderful people who came out last weekend: “THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!” On behalf of the Instant Karma Band and myself, I would like to thank you for all the love that was shared last weekend. There was beautiful Karma and magic in the air, and I felt it every moment I was in Louisville. Thank you also for all the nice comments. It was truly an exciting and wonderful weekend for all of us. 

I love John Lennon very much and I know he was proud of the beautiful tribute that was put on by all the bands and acts Sunday night. Thank you, Gary, for letting us be part of the tribute in the theatre. I will never, ever forget the beautiful and overwhelming ovation from the audience that evening for the rest of my life. It was a magical moment and I’ve never been prouder. Last but not least, I personally want to thank everyone for the caring, and sharing of warm feelings that were given to me in regard to my mother’s death just a month ago. I know she was with me all weekend and she is so proud of all the loving Beatle People in the world. Thank you so much. 

Peace and Love to all,

Wow. We were sitting in the lobby Sunday night, trying to keep the singalong going but it seemed to be dying until Jay ran through on his way to his room and announced that he'd be right back! When you guys got there, it came alive. I can't remember when I've had so much fun. We were leaving at 6 so we had to give up and go to bed at 2... what a blast. Can't wait until next year. You better be there! And I want a T-Shirt!

Denny (green lennon army jacket) not the tall one, he's John. It's Tuesday and I'm still reeling from the festival. I bought a John Lennon (Imagine) karaoke CD today to use for back-up sound tracks. We're hitting Gary up hard with E-mails to have you guys back. (Plus it's great to hang out with you, personally.) Jimmy was the best drummer there. I talked with him Sunday night, he's really nice. If it's ok, could you send me your mailing address at home, I'd like to send you some photos and a letter. I'm a regular letter writer, you know. I'll send you my sister Diana's E-mail address if you want to respond that way. My mailing address is: DENNY KRUSE- 1516 HEPBURN AVE- APT 7- LOUISVILLE, KY. 40204. I'd like to share my off-and-on musical experiences with you in that letter. If all this works out okay, just E-mail me and just say you did get the letter and whatever else.... My Mom bought me a ukelele when I was 5-years old and that's all it took. She was a show-biz type and I still miss her tremendously. When you said on stage that you just lost your Mom, I could feel it for you. It was great to get with you again this year, you're an amazingly real person. DENNY

Thank you, Jay, for sharing your passion with us at AROTR. I unfortunately missed your performance(s) with the band, but had the honor of listening to you at the singalong on Sunday evening. You exude so much love and enthusiasm for the music. It's refreshing to see as so many people have not yet discovered the magic of life, and you truly have the magic. Chicago is a great city; I would gladly plan a trip to see you again.

Hey Jay, Greeting from your friends in Northwest Indiana. We really had a great time at the Edison Park Inn. The show was amazing as always. Just so you won't think that I am retarded; when we were talking about my birthday and I said it was on the 22nd "George & me", I meant George Washington then I got totally confused when you said it was the 24th but they changed it to the 25th. But, then, I was talking to someone who does John Lennon and Beatle tribute numbers so, O.K. I guess I AM RETARDED! It was nice to see Paul, I mean John, no Paul (what is he doing with his MBE ?) from British Export there just having a good time as a fan like the rest of us. Instant Karma and British Export were our absolute favorites from last years Abbey Road and we are looking forward to seeing you both in Louisville in May. See you then if not before. Keep up the good work (and please share some of your energy). Chris

Very nice site. I never get tired of visiting Beatles sites and most music sites in general. I perform in The Beatles tribute group Penny Lane and I'd like to take this opportunity to invite you to visit my site at www.beatlespennylane.com. The site is mainly about the group Penny Lane but there are also many rare Beatles mp3 free downloads, psychedelic art, live Penny Lane audio, live video, Beatles slang page, Beatles pictures, Penny Lane pics, Penny Lane guest book and a page about our Vox amplifiers that we use in our act. We're also open to link to sites that are Beatle oriented. Would you like to swap links?

Hi Jay..I wanted to thank you for the great show last night at Fitzgeralds. You guys sounded great, as always. Amy loved you guys from the time she was a little girl and unfortunately missed your show in June at the Heritage fest because she had to work that day. As I was going through things in her room I found a 8 by 10 picture of you and your former partner that you all had autographed for her. I had never seen it so I guess she had seen you somewhere else when I wasn't there. Thank you so much for honoring her, she was really an amazing person, and I miss her so much. Debbie Tatro

I had been out to see Karma a couple of times, but I must say that last Saturday at EPI was the best show in a very long time. Some of the early and mid Beatles era songs were fantastic. Keep those coming and the bassist should sing a few more because Back in the U.S.S.R. really rocked the place. Jay, you never did Harry Caray impression for me.

We were blown away by your show at Fitzgerald's Friday night! I can't believe you guys have such energy. I assume that in Cleveland that you were hired to do just the John Lennon post Beatle music so we were doubly pleased to hear your Beatle repertoire. Hopefully we will see you before but if not, the Popcorn Fest is Sept.10th in 2005 and will look forward to seeing you then. I believe that Jerry is going to send out a contract. Never thought that anything would get us out to Berwyn but there you go! What a great place. Take Care, Chris, Pam, Pauline & Jerry

What a show Saturday night! I can't believe the energy you guys exude throughout the entire evening. We had a blast, and perhaps were a bit overly enthusiastic, but had no other choice given the intensity with which you performed. It was incredible hearing so many John solo songs that I haven't heard performed live before. And the Beatles songs were just as great. Thanks for an awesome evening and we can't wait to see you in October!

Saw your band at Fitzgeralds on on 9/4/04. I'm a professional musician on my home from a long day of giging and once in a while I stop in Fitzgeralds to have a beer and catch a few songs of whoever is playing. I couldn't leave. It was one great performance after another. Bravo! I had some splainin' to do when I got home at 2:30am, but man was it worth it. I'll be back on Oct.8th and I'll be bringing a crowd. If you ever need or use strings(violin or viola) on some of the songs that have them-I'm in. It would be an honor, on the house. Peace

Hi guys, It was great meeting you at AROTR. Bob was our first new found friend who we met while waiting to check in. We are looking forward to next year in Cleveland and hopefully will get to see you at our Popcorn Festival also. We got a lot of great pictures of your band and one pretty good film clip of Instant Karma doing "Instant Karma". Let me know if you would like me to send it. I didn't want to send and e-mail of that size unless it was O.K. with you. If not, perhaps I could send it to you on CD. Let me know. Jay, all of the songs were great but my favorite song by far was Isolation which I had never heard performed live before. The month before going to Cleveland we prepared ourselves by going to see a local group at Front Porch Music called the Beatle Nerds. They had a guest performer show up by the name of Phil Angotti and bought his Juliet Foster CD. You can "imagine" my surprise when I got on your website. Small world! Also, Mark, New Colony Six has always been one of my favorite groups. Thanks again guys and we hope to make a road trip to see you soon. Chris Overton

I've been a follower of Beatles tribute bands for a LONG time. I just love idea of a Lennon tribute band. It's so great to hear Lennon's solo songs along with his Beatle songs. I first heard you at the Orland taste and then again at AROTR. You really blew them away at both shows. You're all so talented at what you do. I spoke to Bob B. about burning a CD for the band containing the pics I took at AROTR. We're also working on making digital copies of the yearbook pics from Bob's performance at Stagg HS many moons ago. I hope to be at Fitzgerald's on the fourth so I'll bring them there. I hope the pictures I took for Bob Dobro turned out OK. A big thanks to you all for your great performances. I wish you were playing somewhere sooner than September 4th!! Keep the Lennon songs coming!!

We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed your music at the AROTR in Cleveland this last weekend. This was our third year and you were the best surprise of the weekend. Jay, you have John's voice down to an art. The passion you put into Mother is remarkable. Hopefully, Gary will continue the festival so we can enjoy you guys again and again and again:-) Thanks for playing "How" for us. It was great! We really enjoyed chatting with you. We are going to keep checking your schedule to see if you get close enough to where we live so we can come see you play. Hope to see you again someday soon. Peace

Instant Karma was a great hit at "Abbey Road on the River!" Everyone we talked to was impressed with the terrific John Lennon tribute, especially the "post-Beatles" songs that John recorded ("Mother" just to name one). I will certainly relay my comments and request to the promoter that the Band be invited to AROTR for 2005!!

Gang, Just wanted to say you guys are awesome. I love the Lennon tribute show you put on everytime I come out. Not sure if this has ever been requested and I don't want to make any waves but here goes... seeing as there is so much musical history - and so many fans missing and wishing for it (at least in my circles)is there ever any chance of a Beatle Bros reunion show ? You know, maybe just one show. A one time gala event that would unite Beatles fans and assuredly bring down the house. I just know that a thousand people would come out - maybe more. I love Instant Karma and not that I won't continue to come out to see Instant Karma as much as I can, but the Beatle Bros hold / held a special place in the hearts of so many people and Beatles fans. They really touched all of us with a once-in-a-lifetime musical essence and presence that very many bands of any type rarely achieve. I mean, even the Eagles got back together after Hell Froze Over. I am sorry if this sounds selfish, but it's just a wandering thought from the wandering mind of a Beatles fan who just can't seem to fix the hole where the rain gets in. All the Best Stevie

wow, reading all these great comments refreshes my disappointment at missing the band ONCE AGAIN. because looking back not only did I miss all but the very last 30 (thrilling) seconds of the very last song, but I had gotten lost on the way to Moody Blues and missed you guys then too, so....I feel quite ashamed... but I'm definately clearing my calander for Sunday at Twin Lakes and no way will I miss it!! I'm sure it'll be an amazing show and I cant wait!! ps: Thanks so much for answering my questions about upcoming shows, and for the wristband. We used it but I felt so guilty I ended up making an extra donation anyways, haha. Still, its the small things that can make or break a day, and your thoughtfulness was appreciated.
