Review by Jeffrey B.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 20, 2021•From Parker, TX

First of all., Don is absolutely amazing. We have a wedding tradition in our family of inviting someone to play bagpipes (with a certain list of songs) and Don knocked it out of the park! He really went above and beyond what we had hoped for, and it was an amazing evening. We would all highly recommend him!!

:

Hi Jeffrey, Thank you for your kind words about my performance at the wedding. You and your family were so very friendly and welcoming which made the event even more fun for me. Take care sir and thank you again for having me be a part of your families special day. Don.

Don Shannon’s performance at my Mother’s funeral was perfect. He plays the bagpipes so beautifully and “Amazing Grace” was the perfect end to the ceremony. Thank you, Don.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 8, 2019•From Arlington, TX

Don was so warm and friendly and extremely talented! You can tell he loves what he does. He shared in our joy of surprising my dad with this special gift. He even knew and played some obscure songs at my dad’s request. I would highly recommend Don Shannon to play at your next event!

Don was awesome. He was able to accommodate me on a last minute basis and was flexible on his schedule. He was a true pro and he plays the pipes beautifully. I highly recommend him and will use him again.

Celebration•Reviewed on May 1, 2018•From Alvarado, TX

Don is phenomenal! He can play any song! He is a class act! He is authentic!! From pipes to kilt, he is the real thing. Arrived an hour early to make sure he knew exactly what we wanted, when and where. A true professional. Make sure you book your gig with him.

Funeral•Reviewed on March 8, 2018•From Grand Prairie, TX

Although the weather was terrible, Don was at the cemetery on schedule, and performed beautifully. I know that our son would have been very pleased with this tribute to him. Thank you, Don, for bringing some brightness to us on a very dark day in our lives. Rudy and Irma Eppler and Family

It was an honour to play for you, your son and your family. Thank YOU for having me perform for the service. Don.

Funeral•Reviewed on June 12, 2016•From Dallas, TX

Don is a consummate professional. He arrived at the service quite early & began a mini bagpipe concert for our family as we awaited the beginning of the service, honoring my precious father-in-law. Don was handsomely attired in his family's tartan kilt. It was quite warm out but Don remained undaunted by the weather. After the service Don played Amazing Grace & Scotland the Brave while moving away from the group. The fading pipe was quite dramatic. We are so grateful he shared his extraordinary talent with us. Don has played at other family events in the past and he always does a superb job. Thanks, Don!

Wedding•Reviewed on June 7, 2015•From The Colony, TX

Don is incredible. He is very very talented and extremely professional. He is also very personable and easy to work with. I made several changes to our song list and Don continually said "no problem." The day of and right before our wedding, he was a calming, and yet funny presence to a slightly nervous bride. We highly recommend Don Shannon.

Don was delightful. Stayed longer than originally planned to make sure all of the guests heard him as they arrived. (we had some late arrivers) Really enjoyed his music. Great personality. Would strongly recommend Don for your party or function.
