SPRING INTO SOME GREAT EVENTS April 1, 2014
The thermometer may say otherwise but it really is spring! No matter the
temperature, there is a string of hot music events waiting just around the
corner and the Steve Meisner Band will be there! It all starts with the
Old Time Music Fest at the Silver Dome Ballroom in Neilsville with
four great bands including Steve on April 26th. On April 27th
Steve will lead a 7-piece, All-star Super
Band for the
WJYI, Polka Paradeannual fund raiser dance taking place at Serb Hall in Milwaukee. Music
starts at 12:30 with the International Main Street Polka Band followed by
Cleveland’s Eric Noltkamper as he reunites with the Sidemen band. Hank
Thunander will perform with a full Cleveland-style band before Steve
closes out the day with the All-Star Super
Band. Seeing a full 7-piece band with two accordions, sax,
banjo/guitar, string bass, drums and piano, is very rare these days and
you won't want to miss it. Then on May 18th Steve will once
again return to the Olympia Village in Oconomowoc for day three of the
Wisconsin Polka Fest. These are some truly great polka events that
will launch us into the summer season – including Steve’s first trip in
two years to Ohio and Pittsburgh this July. So, Spring into
the schedule page to check the schedule, call
your friends, and make plans to see steve and the guys performing weekly
near you.
THE FUN CONTINUES AT POTAWATOMI CASINO
April
1, 2014
Imagine a place to dance and listen to the Steve Meisner Band without
paying a cover charge. Imagine a place with valet parking. How about
complimentary coffee and soft drinks in designated locations, plus happy
hour drink specials in the bar? Then add in a total of
six restaurant options from quick and casual to fine dining. Now throw
in an afternoon of great music from Steve Meisner. Could such a place
actually exist? You bet it does. The third Thursday of every month is the
time and the
Fire Pit Side Bar inside the Potawatomi Casino in Milwaukee is the
place. What really could be better? No charge to get in, drink specials,
and plenty of ways to make a day of it. Who knows, you could even win big
on the casino floor or in the bingo hall. If it’s been a while, or if
you’ve never stopped by, you’ve got to get to the Potawatomi Casino’s Fire
Pit Side Bar on April 17 to see Steve from 2-6. Other dates include May
15, June 19 and July 17. No matter the date, it’s always the third
Thursday of the month for Steve Meisner at the
Potawatomi Casino.
OUR LONG, LONG WINTER
CONTINUES February 17, 2014 Just about everyone will agree... this
has been a winter to remember! There's never been a better argument to
travel to Florida or Arizona or anyplace warm and snow-free, rather than
face yet another day of sub zero temps and more snow. Spring will have to
get here sooner or later and we are all ready! Apologies go out to anyone
inconvenienced by the many cancellations over the past several months.
It's always a good idea to check in here at
www.SteveMeisner.com
to make sure that either snow or sub-zero temperatures hasn't forced a
last minute cancellation of the performance. We'll provide you with the
latest info. In the meantime, stop out and catch
Steve and the guys for a hot performance sometime soon. We'll take
your mind off of the weather with some of your favorite tunes. Hope to see
you soon!

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!
