Below is about 10% of the thankyous that I
have received since 2000. I am humbled by all of your comments
and it is indeed now my turn to say to you, THANK YOU!
I would just like to point out
that in over 1000 shows I never received a compliment quite
like the first one in the list. It is easily the most inspiring
thing anybody has ever said to me after a performance.
Thanks for visiting,
Pete Raudaschl
Proprietor
"For most of our children it was
like seeing the ocean for the first time."
Anne, Class Room Teacher, Bass Hill
"I was so impressed with the level of
child involvement throughout the show. A number of families
have requested contact details so they can purchase CDs as
their kids are still talking about it. We invite a number
of performers into our centre each year and the Funky bugs
was a stand out. I would happily recommend the performance
to others. Pete is a true children's entertainer "
Anette, Preschool Director, Concorde West
"I hope you don't mind but I've taken
it upon myself to call the ABC to let them know about you.
I get the feeling that your talent is really going to take
you places. The kids have talked about nothing else since
you left. Good luck on your way up the ladder."
Debbie, Preschool Director, Sylvania
"Thanks Pete. Everyone loved the show.
Please call us next time you come to the ACT."
Beres, Preschool Director, Canberra
"Thanks for the CDs. We have the Funky
Bugs playing loudly in our house every day. Arghh!"
Kim, Mother, Kingsford
"Just got back from a 3000km trip to
Adelaide and back. My kids insisted we listen to your music
the entire way there and back. Have to say, you should be
very proud of your work, it's brilliant. Also have to say,
if my husband hears the Funky Bugs one more time he might
snap. Brisbane, here we come. Keep up the good work."
Michelle, Class Room Teacher, Ashcroft
"I was just going to put $20 in an envelope,
but then I heard "The Adventures of Mum" and it
brought a tear to my eye. You captured the whole idea of motherhood
in your song. You are a sensational entertainer and we love
The Funky Bugs!"
Christine, Mother, Bondi
"Thanks for the fantastic show at our
preschool and congratulations on all of your original songs
which are already ensuring my kids "put-their-seat-belts-on"
and use their manners. I have to tell you I got a bit teary
listening to The Adventures of Mum. We drove to the central
Coast on the weekend and my 2 year old listened to it the
entire way there and back. So did we. I thought I was going
to go nuts."
Vicki, Mother, Engadine
"After the dreadful events of last week
(September 11), It was a delighted to watch the thrill of
children enjoying your music. It lifted the audience's spirits
and that is a rare achievement. I'm still thinking about the
Funky Bugs and smiling.

Services and really love your CD. Programmed activities are

You are an inspiration."

next year.
Lisa, Preschool Director, Leumeah
"My 3 year old is your biggest fan. She
asks for your CD constantly and knows all the words by heart.
You have even surpassed the Wiggles in her eyes. Your songs

the good work."
