hot-choc 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2011 Hey girls, I have a question here regarding the waiters/waitress in Eastin, during the wedding dinner. Anyone know how they are at pouring wine and hard liquor?I've seen many other places where the waiters pour the drinks like pouring water! Always pouring too much out in a glass.For the hard liquor, do they have 1 designated waiter to pour, or a few waiters bring the bottles around to pour?Need to plan how to manage the drinks during the dinner. Appreciate any feedback! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yenic 0 Report post Posted November 29, 2011 Can anyone comment on Eastin's sound system? Good? or better to rent from live band?Thanks in advance! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DANIEL LEE 0 Report post Posted November 29, 2011 Yenic...we have performed in Eastin Hotel many, many times. Their Sound System is the typical hotel sound system...good for speech but horrible for live Band. That is why all the couples who hired our 6 Live Bands hired our Sound System too as they heard how bad the hotel's was. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yenic 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2011 i see..because i was told by the manager that they just changed their entire sound system..like recently?so im not sure how good is the new one. =P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DANIEL LEE 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2011 Yenic...whether they changed or not...it will still sound the same. Yo ucan trust me on this. Our band performed there recently. Their sound system still sounds the same. No improvement. It is all nothing but 'sales talk' about them changing sound system.Hotels always like to use the same recylced sentence : " Oh, dont wory about our sound system quality. We changed it recently". How would you know whether they changed d or not? Were you there to take photos of their old sound system to compare with their new one?I have heard that used over and over again....when in fact nothing improved. This applies not only to Eastin but other hotels too.Many Hotels still use their old sound system. Nothing was changed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yenic 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2011 ohh i see..thanks amanda angels and joanne babe!!i guess is best to rent from live band then thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brainycomet 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2011 Hmm... to be fair to them, I did check whether with Michelle when I signed up at Mid Valley last month I'll need to hire sound system if I were to have a live band. She said it's better for me to rent sound system as the existing hotel system cannot serve musical instruments of the band. Yenic, think you better get your own.

DANIEL LEE 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2012 Eastin is often not mentioned in the same sentence as other popular hotels like Westin, JW MArriot or MO...but let me assure you that Eastin can take on these heavyweight hotels head on! The entire ballroom is spacious and the ceiling is high to make your guests comfy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
