I write this edition of the
newsletter on my fourth wedding anniversary while my
pregnant wife is taking a nap. Hard to believe four years
have gone by this quickly, all the change that’s taken place
in our lives since 2007, and the fact that we’re awaiting
the arrival of our third child. There’s no crystal ball in
the world I would have believed 10 years ago if it had told
me the story of my life that was to unfold. Many, many good
things have happened during that timeframe, a good number of
which I must attribute to my wife. Happy Anniversary,
Heather, and I love you!
On the business side of things,
with Oktoberfest season behind us, you might think I’m
drifting off into hibernation mode. Instead, I’m busy
working on scheduling next summer, and it is shaping up to
be a dandy indeed, potentially even busier than the summer
of 2011 (which is saying an awful lot)! So far, I’ve got
stops in Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Minnesota, and
Wisconsin planned. Looking forward to another winner of a
summer – stay tuned for details!
In the meantime, have you made
your reservations yet for our Wisconsin Polka Boosters
Christmas Dinner & Dance and New Year’s Eve performances
yet? If not, check out the schedule below for all the
details. As these events have limited capacities, please
call and make your reservations today. Two terrific venues,
three great events to help celebrate the Holidays – all with
(hopefully) one of your favorite polka bands! Hope to see
you soon.
Looking for some great gift
ideas for Christmas? How about one of our Pint Size Polkas
CDs for the little polka fans in your life? Visit the Music
page at
www.pintsizepolkas.com for
pricing, music clips, and more information. For the adult
polka fan, the
Music and
Fan Club links have all you
need to say “Merry Christmas,” polka style! Don’t know what
the fan club is all about? Then follow
this link
immediately for details on the now nearly decade-old Polka
Visionary Society – the official fan club of the Mike
Schneider Band. Amazing interviews with some of polka
music’s most interesting subjects, exclusive live music
clips, and totally redone versions of some of your favorite
songs as recorded by the Mike Schneider Band are just three
reasons you should become a member today. Hope you’ll join
us!
Finally, for details on the
arrival of Baby Schneider #3, please stay tuned to the
Home
page and also our Facebook page at
www.facebook.com/mikeschneiderband.
I’ll be posting photos and details there once the baby has
arrived. Here’s hoping for an easy labor for my wife, and
also for a very happy, healthy newborn!
And as always, be sure to join our growing list of fans on Facebook
