Steven Leflar
Country: United States
Thomas Schoenberger of North Bay Entertainment approached Steven Leflar of Star Sounds Production in February 2008 to become a partner in North Bay Entertainment.

An agreement was met. The position of Steven Leflar was to organize the company and lower overhead. After a complete analysis of the companies financial situation was determined it was found to be more than $100.000.00 in debt consisting of deposits paid by the clients for future events were already spent prior to the partnership. (Supporting documents can be found at: www.northbaye.net )

The company was moved to Concord CA where a new license was started as agreed by the two owners of North Bay Entertainment. The company had major problems in Napa since it was operating without a business license since April 9, 2007. (Source is from The City of Napa Finance Department.) Thomas Schoenberger had notified the City of Napa that he had moved the company to Rohnert Park when indeed he operated as usual in Napa to avoid paying license fees and taxes. He was already under an audit from 2004 to 2007 at the time. North Bay Entertainment also had a reputation for not paying artists and had been sued on two occasions and lost by 2005. One of the articles you can find at: http://www.napavalleyregister.com/news/articl ... 50456e22fb.html    
Thomas Schoenberger didn’t carry any General Liability insurance and would tell clients that would ask for the certificate he was under the Star Sounds umbrella.
We needed to start fresh without all the storm clouds hanging overhead of North Bay Entertainment.

North Bay Entertainment went forward without Thomas or Steven collecting any income from North Bay Entertainment. All of the profit was left in the company to reduce its debt. Thomas Schoenberger Managing Partner of North Bay Entertainment found ways to make money off of North Bay by bypassing normal business operating procedures. He would pick up checks against North Bay contracts and deposit them into his personal North Bay Bank accounts instead of the company account keeping the profits. He would also write his own contracts listing his home address and personal phone numbers.

It was found in November 2008 he was claiming he sold North Bay in February 2008 to people who were owed money. He has continued since with his claim he sold the company without a bill of sale or legal transfer of ownership of any kind. However he continued to do business as North Bay Entertainment Managing Partner.

Thomas Schoenberger then proceeded to defame and slander anybody that didn’t go along with him using Yelp and many other community websites. Thomas also created a website www.starsoundsdjmusic.com posting all kinds of false information and went as far as to copyright as Star Sounds Productions 2009 on the website. He registered it to Star Sounds Productions but listed himself as administrative contact with his email address and contact phone number. The website was taken down by the Star Sounds attorneys. Why would Star Sounds Productions put up a website and then slander itself.


Thomas has been working with Gig Xifaras of Associated Entertainment as a competitor of Star Sounds Productions and to recoup monies owed by Thomas DBA North Bay Entertainment in an effort to damage Star Sounds Productions. They both have made claims against Star Sounds Productions to artists and venues alike that are false but are true about North Bay Entertainment.

Thomas Schoenberger claims he sold North Bay Entertainment in February 2008 to Star Sounds Productions making Steven Leflar responsible for the North Bay Entertainment debt. If it were true then Steven Leflar would also have the assets of North Bay Entertainment and the only bank account under North Bay Entertainment since February 2008. The evidence at this point shows Thomas Schoenberger has deposited over $100,000.00 into his own bank account for North Bay Entertainment business. His own bank statements dated February 25, 2008 to March 24, 2008 total deposits $33,162.50 and April 16, 2008 total deposits $45,837.25. Total $78,999.75 in just two months. The balance of the bank statements are being subpoenaed. Now we have to add in all the checks written to North Bay Entertainment Concord contracts that he collected and put into his bank account.

    STEVE LEFLAR LOST EVERY CASE.LOOK IT UP. HIS ATTACKS ON MR SCHOENBERGER HID THE FACT THAT STEVE LEFLAR IS A KNOWN THIEF AND CON CMAN.

    www.northbaye.net   See the criminal in action. I see Thomas Schoenberger is being sued for $250,000.00 for the money he collected and didn't pay the money he collected from the clients to the artists.

    Thank you for exposing Simply The Best Entertainment. We dealt with Eric Symons to book our wedding band . The wedding was at Meadowood Resort. When we received a call from the band leader informing us that they were never paid, we called both Eric Symons and then Steve Leflar to find out why the band was never paid. They gave us the run around, and we ended up complaining to Meadowood Resort. Now we hear that Eric Symons and Steve Leflar have done this to many bands. We now warn everyone about Simply The Best Entertainment / Eric Symons / Steve Leflar. How sad that these people operate without any morals. I have not used our names out of respect for our own privacy, but from what I have heard, we were not the only victims scammed by these two.
