Alright, this is going to be a pretty quick post for a few reasons. One is that I didn’t take many photos (I took some videos but cannot for the life of me format them correctly so you can view them…boo!) and the other is that I have a queue of posts just waiting to be published. So watch out, I might do something crazy and post more than once today!
But a few weeks ago, I took the girls down to 88Nine Radio Milwaukee to see the band Kaleo. Which happened to coincide with DJ Kallao’s last day at the radio station. Crazy, right?
I’d only heard the band’s one song, All The Pretty Girls, and liked it. That’s enough to get me down to the studio!
J was on a special date with his cousin, so it was just me and the girls. We got some water and cookies from Stone Creek and found seats. And snuggled while waiting for the band.
And I have to say, I’m a fan of the band now. It was a great show…I was surprised that the music had a definite blues and good ol’ rock and roll feel. We heard “I Can’t Go On Without You” and “Broken Bones” which I loved.
I thought this was a cool guitar. (Hey Dad, can the next one you build look like this?)
The kids danced, clapped along, and we all left feeling like we got a super special treat. A chance to see a band from Iceland perform in our city. They stuck around to talk to the audience after, but nap time called so we departed before saying thanks.
So thanks Kaleo and 88Nine for the entertainment! I wish I should share with you the videos from the performance, just to give you a more accurate feel for the music, and the vibe of 88Nine’s studio performances. They’re a really fun and free (and quite family friendly for being live on the radio!) way to get involved.
Till next time,
A. Storm
