Saturday's Snowy 60th!

Even a freak spring snowstorm couldn't stop us from having a great time Saturday, with a big 60th Birthday Bash at Info's in Racine. People came from out-of-town (and out-of-state!) to celebrate with our guest of honor. Unexpected bonus? We caught up with our longtime friend Rey. Sing me a song Rey, you're the piano man!

The SSE / Charcoal Grill Story

The history of SSE is very much wrapped up in the awesome, long-standing business relationship we've shared with the Charcoal Grill. The Kenosha, Hales Corners, Franklin, and Racine locations have all been a home to weekly karaoke with Spoon, beginning all the way back in '96. Friday night we enjoyed performing for a wedding at the Hwy 20 banquet facility in Racine. Their hard working staff recommends us to all their clients, and we booked this particular wedding thanks to them. Everyone had a great time, and the floor was full all night long! Cheers!

January Jumpback!

We kicked off 2009 with some great Sunday Night parties for some of our long time business friends in the area. Since December is so busy for them, almost all of our partners in the restaurant and service industries have their holiday parties...after the holidays! We always rock hard with our friends at the Chancery Harbourwalk in Racine, and this January was no exception. We're proud to do selected special shows with them throughout the year, and we'll be sure to keep you updated on their upcoming live events!

Operation: High School Hysteria

Of all the different types of live events we produce, I think that High School gigs might be the most challenging of them all. Since 99.9% of popular music has some kind of questionable lyrics or content, it can be quite the task to keep the students and chaparones happy at the same time. Tonight, we rocked the 'big room' at Bristol Oaks Country Club! All the stops were pulled...all the tricks were played...and we all had a blast! These kids were awesome, and we even had the parents out there filling up the dance floor. We've already been asked back for next year...cheers to that!

Save The Date for Egg-citing Family Fun!

For years, we've always enjoyed the annual Racine Zoo Classic Car at the end of the summer...so why not bookend the season with something new? Set the date aside for a fun day for the whole family, and kick off spring with a blast! I'll be there with family-friendly music and entertainment for everyone, it shoud be a great time. We hope to see you there!

A Tropical February Friday!

I love Friday night weddings! It's always a win-win. Either you have a Friday/Saturday back-to-back "double shot", or you rock a wedding on Friday, and still have the whole weekend in front of you. We had a blast at Infusino's this Friday. Our bride and groom were recently married in the tropics, and brought some island vibes to the frozen tundra. Hey look...is that a fish pond at Infos? Awesome!

The Bristlecone Pines

I just rolled in from one of my favorite shows of the year! The Bristlecone Pines Country Club is a great room to work in, and I just got done with a VERY FUN holiday show there for Waukesha Memorial Hospital. Chris and I DJ'ed a wedding there back in '98, and I will always enjoy telling the story of how Mark Chmura closed down the bar that night, and held the door for us when we were packing up our gear! Good times, baby...good times!
