Back to Milwaukee!

Milwaukee Wisconsin is one of my favorite cities in America.  I’d consider living there during a full summer.  Friendly?  I’ve not found folks that are friendlier.  This week was the Association of Irish and Celtic Festivals Conference.  Over 25 festivals with more than 140 delegates.  Great folks! Great friends!  Fortunately, there was plenty of caffeine served before I semi-regaled them with a short talk about new CWA policies.  Ed Ward talked me into doing a short bit of the Walt Disney World Jungle Cruise routine I did while working on the attraction during the 70’s.

Loverboy at The St. Augustine Amphitheatre

America’s oldest city on a very warm evening. This was our first trip to the St. Augustine Amphitheater – awesome facility. The opening act was Tommy Tutone. After the show, Jackie and I had a chance to talk with Tommy Heath – what a great guy. I was not aware that “867-5309” is one of the highest used computer passwords in the world. Tommy received a full standing ovation at the end of his show.
he Greg Kihn Band followed. First time we had seen him perform. Greg kept the crowd in a frenzy before our client hit the stage.   Greg’s voice is the same as it was in the 80s – super!  You knew it was him singing.

This might have been the first concert for the couple sitting behind us. The couple felt everyone should have been sitting communicating with each other via cell phone. They were a bit vocal about it during Tommy and Greg. When Loverboy hit the stage, they had no choice but to stand for the entire site.

As I type this, I am “Working for the Weekend.”

IrishFest!

Delia and Cecile are in Las Vegas for Psycho Las Vegas.  Although I really, really like Las Vegas, I love Milwaukee.  My phone was not doing well for pictures so I hope to download some from various websites.  We had a bunch of clients performing that wanted Central Withholding Agreements.

Psycho Las Vegas

Delia and Cecile traveled to Las Vegas, NV to visit our clients at the Psycho Las Vegas Festival.  We had a lot of fun meeting with our clients and watching them perform!

Dua Lipa at House of Blues, Orlando

We’ve been filing Dua Lipa’s CWAs for two years and we were very excited that she made a return trip to Orlando, FL after the last show was canceled.  Delia and Kim went out to see the show at House of Blues.  The venue was packed and the show was amazing!

Betsayda Machado In Orlando

Last evening Jackie and I had the opportunity to see our CWA client at the Orlando Timucua Arts Foundation house. This is the best intimate venue we have ever been in. That allowed the artists to interact with the guests off the stage and on the floor. There was some spectacular dancing going on starting about the 4th song and that lasted the rest of the set.

 

Vanessa Da Mata at House of Blues, Orlando

Last night Jackie and I had the opportunity to see our CWA client at House of Blues on Easter Sunday. Once again, we were the only ones in the building that did not speak Portuguese. Very noticeable as everyone was singing along.  Awesome show!

Broken Social Scene at House of Blues, Orlando

This is our second year filing CWA’s for Broken Social Scene. We were very excited to finally meet them at their show in Orlando, FL at House of Blues!
