STEVE ON THE BALLOT FOR
MORE AWARDS September 21, 2013
Steve Meisner is once again on the ballot to be inducted as a life-time
achievement winner, this time into the Wisconsin Polka Music Hall of Fame.
Last year the Cleveland Polka Hall of Fame placed Steve into this coveted
category of lifetime achievement honors - the highest award presented by
most organizations. Now, for 2013, Steve has been added to the ballot for
Lifetime Achievement honors with the Wisconsin Polka Hall of Fame. Back in
Cleveland, Steve's Meisner Time CD is up for Recording of the Year.
Both the Wisconsin and Cleveland Halls of Fame rely on votes from the
membership to determine the award winners. Any Meisner fans who are
members of either the Wisconsin or Cleveland Style Polka Hall of Fames are
encouraged to return their election ballots prior to the deadline. Of
course a vote for Steve in any of the categories is also greatly
appreciated. Both Halls of Fame will hold their awards shows later this
year.
CATCH STEVE LIVE
OUTSIDE IN WEST ALLIS July 27, 2013 West Allis,
Wisconsin will be the place to see Steve several times during the first
days of August. It starts with the rain date for Veterans Park near 70th
and National where Steve and the band make their second attempt to perform
for the free, summer concert series. The first attempt was rained out so
don't forget to come out for the rescheduled free concert with Steve,
hopefully under a clear sky this time, on August 1st. Four days later the
band travels just up the street from the West Allis Veterans Park to the
West Allis State Fair Park where the band once again performs at the
Budweiser Pavilion. This year's dates are Monday and Tuesday, August 5th
and 6th starting at 11:00 AM and running until 2:30 PM. It's a great time
to visit the Wisconsin State Fair and if you do, be sure to stop by and
catch a set or two with the Steve Meisner Band!

GREAT PHOTOS FROM THE
HEATWAVE POLKAFEST January 23, 2013 Steve, Don Hunjadi and Tom Brusky
were recently captured on stage by photographer, Dick Blau, as they
performed for the Heatwave Polka Fest at the Amerahn Ballroom in Kewauskum.
When the band arrived early Saturday evening, it was something of a
Heatwave for January in Wisconsin with temperatures nearing 50 degrees. By
the time the performance had ended only a few hours later, it was anything
but tropical as a blizzard of sorts had moved in dropping temperatures
into the single digits and blasting wind gusts over 40 miles per hour! At
least the music inside was still hot, hot, hot with Steve and the band.
See some great photos right here
and don't forget about all of the other recent photo adds available from
the PHOTOS page.
