Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 26, 2014•From San Francisco, CA

Ron played for an event that I put together and was amazing! He did a great job playing, was very professional and extremely nice. The event was for my birthday and he was even kind enough to bring me a birthday card. There is no way you could go wrong with booking Ron for your event. I would easily recommend him to any friend.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on December 20, 2013•From Half Moon Bay, CA

Ron was amazing! Being a very talented back piper, he made the wedding reception magical. He made sure the event was going well and adapted to all our wishes. On top of that, he was really easy to work with, stress-free during the booking and figuring out all the little details. I cannot recommend Ron highly enough - he's really great!

Ron was on-time, professional, and flexible. Above all, he was a fantastic piper, and knew the tunes we needed for our US Navy dining out event. Thanks a million, Ron!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 17, 2014•From San Jose, CA

Ron was wonderful! He was on time, well groomed, great personality. He even brought a birthday card for my husband. I had never done this before, so I was a little nervous and Ron and his wife made me feel assured and comfortable. He even educated us on the history of the bagpipes and the quilt. Awesome!! 5 stars all the way!

His Amazing Grace made people cry! On time, courteous, professional and went the the "extra mile"

Review by Pam L.

Memorial Service•Reviewed on October 20, 2013•From Three Rivers, CA

Ron Rockholt was the highlight of our service. His performance was grace personified. He was unobtrusive to the event, and very considerate of our ceremonies. The feedback from the guests made us very happy we had secured his services for the Memorial of a dear friend.

Review by Margaret C.

Funeral•Reviewed on July 31, 2013•From Daly City, CA

Ron was very professional and was a very pleasant person. He was helpful helping me choose songs for my mother's graveside service. I'm keeping his number for future services..

Saint Patrick's Day Party•Reviewed on March 18, 2014•From Clovis, CA

Ron was courteous and professional. He played for our family's St Patricks Day party and was very good with our guests and little ones. We will definitely have him join us again.

Dinner Dance•Reviewed on March 17, 2014•From Visalia, CA

He was great to have! it really made a difference for the residents and their families that attended! We would love to have him again!

:

I do try very hard to be both professional and responsive to the requests of my clients. I am a bit puzzled regarding the less than stellar rating for two of these categories. The client did not attend the event and I felt that I bent over backward in every way. O.K. live and learn in all situations. I guess the playing was satisfactory. So, success on that note.

Review by Dennis H.

Funeral•Reviewed on May 18, 2014•From Atwater, CA

He played for my wife's funeral and everyone was impressed with not only his skill but also with his dress and willingness to share knowledge about his skill and the background of the bagpipes. We will all be recommending Ron in the future.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 8, 2013•From Elk Grove, CA

Bagpiper Ron did his part. I really only needed 30 minutes of pipes. My first time hiring a bagpiper. I would have liked some "jiggy" music played...however I did not ask him to. It was an experience...my husband was surprised however booking the entertainment for 1.5 hours would have been too long. I went to a party before that had a bag piper..the music was a little different sounding. Maybe I have my irish/scottish music confused.

Review by Filip K.

Veteran's Day Party•Reviewed on November 10, 2014•From Fresno, CA

I was very happy with Ron's performance. He came well ahead of time to tune up and make sure he was as prepared as possible. He also adjusted well with the slide changes of the event, even had a few good suggestions about tunes to play for the occasion and is definitely very knowledgeable of the bagpipes and the music. The audiences had several compliments for his performance as well.

Review by Heather Q.

Memorial Service•Reviewed on February 18, 2015•From Belmont, CA

Overall, our experience was fine. Ron is very talented and looked quite the part. I had expressed our want to not have a specific song played, but in the chaos prior to the service, this might have been over looked or forgotten. Over all, we were quite satisfied.

:

Too many cooks spoil the soup.. I played what and when I was asked to. Several people were giving me names of songs. Planning was not the best and instructions were vague at times.. Difficult to please the client when things keep changing.
