"This is a phenomenal CD - and they are even better in concert! A friend of mine knows the band from college and since he took me to my first Weekend concert, I've been a big fan. While I have enjoyed all of the band's previous releases, "Take Me Home" takes their work to a new level. Weekend Excursion has a great sound and this CD will not disappoint...Definitely a five star rating."
One of the best new groups around

"Undeniably, this record is an accension from the work they did on their previous 3 albums. With more powerful, confident vocals and a more solid rock n roll sound, these guys are ready for the big time. Definitely an album to add to your collection"
Pretty good, in fact very good

"Ok, I own the first three albums and love them. This album is more of the same, with a few suprises thrown in. "Treat her like a lady" is a great new song for them. Push Me Away, Conscience, Best Friend, and Liberty are also highlights of the album. There really isn't a track to skip over on the entire album. Go pick it up soon so these guys can get a well-deserved record contract with a major label."
A shimmering rock record

"For any listeners out there that are wondering what happened to the emerging Carolina rock music scene that lately has been disintegrating and withering, look no furthen than the 4 immensely talented Raleigh boys of Weekend Excursion. The production on this CD is as polished as any major label band and the tunes are incredibly catchy. The album opens with a piano laden rocker, and rollicks all the way throughout wih punchy, radio friendly numbers and shimmering ballads. Theory of A Kiss is a definite highlight. Their cover of the Cornelius Brothers is entertaining and well worth a listen. The closer perhaps wraps up the album perfectly. A must buy for any fan in search of a new rock band or the next big thing. 5 Stars for sure.
Enjoy, Happy Listening Folks."
