Are you playing at the Dallas International Guitar Festival this year? I think you're one of the best every year at that event. The proof is in the PRS endorsement!!!

We were in town on Saturday and decided to check out Sam's Burger Joint. It was a great pleasure to hear your music. If you're ever in the Ft. Worth area, we'll be there. Check out Keys Lounge in Ft. Worth. Would be a great venue for your band. Thanks.

Don Banton

October 19, 2011

My brother Russell Banton,San Antonio, Texas, says that he is a Ruben V. groupy which surprises him at his age and the fact that he, before listening to Ruben, did not know that he liked Blues music. I have listened to Blues for years and so I am excited that Russell, his wife Sandy and his son and daughter all love Ruben's music. It is my hope that someday Ruben will be asked to come to Maine for the Blues Festival in Rockland, Maine. Don

Caught you playing at The Cove last night (11/6). What an AWESOME performance. First thing I did rolling out of the parking lot was put your CD on, to listen to it on the way home. Thanks for chatting me up after the show. You're real and sing from the heart & soul! I love that! Keep up the great work. I can't wait to bring my friends & family to see you when they come to visit!

Greg Wright

November 7, 2010

My two friends and I caught your show at the Cove and then had a chance to talk to you in the parking lot afterwards. I can't rant and rave enough - you blew us away: I think it was the best live show I have ever seen in my 50 years. You have more energy and style after a 4 hour show than most artists have at the beginning. We will definitely be seeing you again and bringing our friends! Also posting to Facebook and Twitter as well.

Hey Ruben, it's been a long time since those days at Buc's in Fredericksburg, but I haven't forgotten how much fun we had. I always enjoyed talking to you and hope we can again. Just wanted you to know there is a new venue here, that I think is just your style, it's called the Crossroads Saloon and Steakhouse and they've been getting some great entertainment, but they ain't seen nothin' yet. I know the management and with your permission I'd love to give them your name. With any luck you'ld be playin' up here again, "cause the good Lord knows, we need somebody to come up here and rock the house, the way you used to. Best wishes always my friend, hope to see you again, God bless. Keep on "pickin'."

Ruben: Mom loves the Letter from Heaven song...She listens to it every morning. She has found immense comfort in it and wanted me to express her thankfulness. It has been two years since Sarah passed away and she said this is possibly the first time she has encountered some PEACE because of your words in the song.. Thanks for being so special to all of our family!
