We loved your sound, look, everything. Super job! One guest had already posted a picture of the band on our facebook album before she left. So, thanks for playing at our little vineyard. It's a small venue compared, but we appreciate it. Lori

We loved TinMan’s gig and we also had great fun with the band members...the response from our guests was very positive!  I will be very happy to recommend TinMan for other gigs.

So much fun! Thanks for rocking us all night [at St. James Gate]! Can't wait to dance to your music again. By the way, I really liked your rendition of "Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me". I've never heard it done by a cover band before. Elton would have been proud

    TinMan - Thank you so much for your astounding, and outstanding, long set on Friday night, December 29 at the Avalon. It was probably the best "Dress Rehearsal" opportunity you had for your sold out New Years event tonight at the Little Fox in Redwood City. I'm sure that you are ready to blow your audience out of their seats. I am also sure that your audience tonight will continue to generate a larger fan base to follow you through 2007, and into your rockin' future. We look forward to joining you for many shows this New Year.

    Your band is the greatest! It really looked like you all had a good time on stage on Friday night. I was thrilled to watch you in front of that large crowd. You handled it supremely. Keep on Rockin' (in the free world!) We'll miss you in May, unfortunately, but will look for you again soon.

    Every Tin Man performance I have witnessed has been an awesome experience. Even at the show when my dad got thrown out for fighting with Jesse, the band rocked out. With the exception of "My Sharona", every song they play is great.

    This band is pretty sick man! I saw them at the Kings Head in Campbell. Everybody was into them all night long. If you like classic rock, you'll love Tin Man.

    I have seen the band on a few occasions and the sound quality is top notch. The set lists are diverse with songs from almost every era. The best shows were in Christian Lee's compound.

    I slept over at Coverband Ranch and TinMan didn't even grope me. Not once. It would have been especially gross, too, because all I was wearing was an over-sized t-shirt. Talk about creepy. Go see a show.

    Tinman's performance of Sweet Jane is right up there with some of the live performances I've heard from Lou Reed and the gang.

    We got to rock out to TinMan. It was awesome. Old songs and new songs.....older generations and newer ones.. they were in perfect harmony with their audience!!!

    Hey, you guys really rock! I'm a classic rock fan so your tunes are great for me and I've had lots of fun every time I've come out to check you guys out. Thanks for the great times!
    Tinman is great! When I first met Christian I learned that he was a singer in a band and I thought, "oh, just another amateur band." But one night I was over at his house during a band practice and was like "oh my god, these guys are actually good!" They certainly got a groove on and I especially love how Ardell just becomes one with his guitar, seemingly in another dimension, flowing with the waves of sound.
