"I have known David Merry for over twenty years. We used to session together, "back in the day," and since then I have worked with him countless times. Drop him into ANY performance situation, day or night, in front of ANY audience, and he will always rock the room. David is that darn experienced, and that darn good. The guy is nothing less than bullet-proof."
- Jay Sankey

audience. I came out to see what all the excitement was about and it was
Dave Merry onstage. He was killing them."
-Kevin James
"This guy just never quits! Onstage and off, Dave Merry's show is more than
just fun - his humor is intelligent, his persona is charming and his magic
isn't half-bad, either! Buy his DVD - just don't trust him with your car keys!"
- David Oliver
"WOW! I couldn't have asked for more. The audience loved you. I'll be calling about a return engagement.
-Hank Moorehouse Abbott's Get Together 2002
