Half
Pack LIVE!!! is a "Vegas-style" show band that’s bouncy,
fun, well-delivered entertainment reminiscent of the old Vegas Strip
when Frank and Dino were Kings. Mark Haynie and Troy Kline are veteran
singers and entertainers that bring a big FUN FACTOR to every performance.
Energetic and engaging with a little humor and a lot of swagger, this
dynamic pair delivers the old standards with a fresh vitality that is
rare in musical performances.
Half-Pack
LIVE!!! has performed over 70 gigs in the past year alone and are a
polished, charismatic, professional entertainment package that is not
only flexible and talented, but pride themselves on being “a dream
to work with.” You have enough concerns in putting together an
event – worrying about what the band will be like shouldn’t
be one of them. “The Pack” will cover all details of the
gig in advance and arrive early with a clear understanding of your desires
and requests. A 7:00 downbeat is a 7:00 downbeat. And if you need to
modify things throughout the event, “The Pack” will go with
your flow. Once you’ve had a taste of this fantastic group, after
a few weeks or a few months, you’ll experience the all-too-common
“Pack Attack” that sends you out to see them or book them
again.
Client Reviews:
[VENUE: Cystal
Ballroom Portland, OR] "f there were more than 5, I
would rate them higher on every single count. Half Pack Live was PERFECT
for my corporate party. We had people from 3 states there and all night
long I heard comments that this band was amazing, incredible, perfect,
great, fantastic....the superlatives went on all night long. When not
one person out of 260 says a negative thing, and actually go out of
their way to seek me out and tell me that their feelings on the band,
I know I've made the right choice. Mark Haynie was a pleasure to deal
with, and the entire band was very accommodating with a couple of glitches
in the schedule that I had to throw at them that evening."

[Venue:
Olympic
Sculpture Park; Seattle, WA] "Half-Pack Live was absolutely
amazing! For our Annual Holiday Party I typically book a nice swing
band, but his year I wanted something a little more unique and fun for
our holiday party. Half-Pack Live delivered exactly that and more! Their
music is a great Vegas style swing with crowd interaction, which gave
the event a fantastic flare for the entire evening. They were very professional
and easy to work with from start to finish! The band went way over the
top for us and helped make our event this year perfect in every way!
I would highly recommend Half-Pack Live for any special occasion. Thanks
Guys!!"

Golf & CC; Burien, WA] "Half-Pack LIVE did all that
I'd hoped they would. Their music and style lent itself well to our
50th Anniversary celebration for our key leadership, both current and
retired. They are fun, professional and easy on the eyes according to
a number in attendance. I hope to use them again."

[Venue: Trilogy
Golf & CC ; Redmond, WA] "Half pack live! Turned
our simple golf tournament award ceremony, into an absolute bash! They
are the definition of entertainment, class, and talent. Golf tournaments
have many awards to hand out and have many interruptions, in which they
handled with total flexibility and grace. Many asked me...Where did
you find these guys? Thanks Half Pack Live, you guys rock!"

[Venue: Steve
Jensen Loft & Studio; Seattle, WA] "Our event was a huge success
and Troy and his group were large part of that success! Troy really
got into the spirit of the evening and supported our theme (Rat Pack
Cocktail Party/ Fund Raiser) Many of our guests commented on how much
they enjoyed the entertainment. We will strongly consider Troy and his
group for future events. Thank You Troy!!!"

Venue: Surfsand
Resort; Cannon Beach, OR] "Half-Pack LIVE!!! was great!
Everyone loved their music, they impeccably performed our "first
dance" ("At Last" by Etta James), they were great about
keeping the night flowing smoothly, and they were so much fun to dance
to! I would hire them again in a moment and I would recommend them to
anyone who wants fun, classy entertainment from a band who treats you
with kindness and respect."

[ Venue:Seattle
Sheraton Main Ballrooms] "I''m really pleased with Half-Pack
LIVE!!!'s performance on our wedding day. They created an atmosphere
of elegance yet enjoyable and cozy. Many of our guests were exceedingly
happy. They could sing along and dance. I heard many praises for the
band. They said they've never been in an event with the band that is
so alive. They are just very talented people. They are flexible and
easy to work with. They're willing to provide the songs we requested
that weren't in their song list. They could work with our budget. They're
just the best jazz band in town!"

[Venue: Family Ranch; Walla Walla, WA]" The
band was great! Everyone danced all night long... and had a blast. My
guests raved about the music. People from another wedding down the hall
wanted to crash ours, I heard. I hope you got a bunch of contacts for
further engagements. I certainly would recommend you in a heartbeat.
Your suggestion to add the saxophone was dead on perfect, thanks for
the recommendation to add him."
