Tonight our awesome production company, Breezy Point Sounds & Lights, set up their new light show. Jason built these very cool and Johny 5(esque) looking light towers. Four of them to be exact. He had an idea to place them in between each video wall panel tower (that we have added to our show) and boy does it look freakin' AMAZING! Couple that with the new video wall and we have a pretty killer new stage show. Can't wait to see video of it in action from the crowd's vantage point. Kudos to Jason, Jamie and Frank for getting all of this dialed up. We can't even begin to tell you how many hours we all spent collectively on getting this show running. Pretty sure it has been close to a few hundred hours between the three of them. Probably more! That also doesn't count the driving to and from the Madison area, phone calls to the program companies and other people in the industry that run similar programs for their tours…. WHEW! We won't name names, but there have been some VERY helpful dudes that have hit the big time that have been willing to help a little 'ol cover band from Wisconsin. THANK YOU guys. You know who you are and we are forever grateful for your wisdom and knowledge.
So who does what for the band?! Frank (who is also the machine that runs this band and drums), creates the content (he's one smart cookie). Jamie designs the light show (he too is a smart cookie), sets up our video wall and runs the lights while we play. Jason builds the light towers and upgraded a lot of his lighting to more current toys out there and then sets all the production side of things up for each and every show. He also has a golden ear as our dedicated and exclusive FOH sound engineer. We are some lucky duckies! Now ya know! You guys ROCK!
Alright….Cue the show. Literally lol. What a great crowd! This was our last show in the area for 2025 and we didn't want people to miss out on the new fun. Both ourselves and the bar ran ads on social media and the radio to let people know about the show. Pretty sure it worked because y'all SHOWED UP! Thank you to Ryder's Roadhouse and to every one of you that came out to the show. We had fun and we could tell you did too!
Until 2026, stay cool and keep rockin'! We do have a show or two planned in your area for 2026. Keep those eyes and ears pealed for show dates!
