Lake Ellyn Boathouse Wedding Still Rocks in the Cold
When you have a wedding in early October, you expect it to be a nice day. There might be a cool breeze running past you as you watch the leaves in their new orange and yellow coats. You might hear the faint honking of geese as they fly through the sky, having just...
Kentucky Dueling Pianos: Walker Hall in Paducah
Will Felix and Fingers Dueling Pianos travel? Absolutely! This weekend brought the Chicago dueling pianos show all the way south to Paducah KY for what was sure to be a great night of wedding entertainment. From Chicago (or our location in the northwest suburbs),...
St. Louis Boasts Dueling Piano Alternative To Howl
I normally don't bring up 'competition.' It's just not necessary. What's the point of comparing apples to oranges? So why bring it up now? Actually, I'm not. I don't think St. Louis offers a whole lot in dueling pianos entertainment. Yes, I know that it is the...

Rookies Pub Hosts Wild Party
Rookies was a new venue for us, not just as a dueling pianist, but as a customers too. Actually, it's not called Rookies, but Rookies All American Pub And Grill. But it was definitely more than just a pub. With all the TVs and great food and drinks, this was...
D’Andrea Hosts Blessing Barn
Felix and Fingers are a blessing (or can be). The Blessing Barn is a blessing. D'Anadrea Banquets is a blessing. With that much blessing going around, count yourself blessed just by reading this 🙂 Felix and Fingers had the pleasure of playing a fundraiser event for...
Dry Creek Estate Weddings
I live in small town in a rural area. Ahhh... if only we had a winery. I'm in love with that ambiance. And apparently so are brides and grooms. Let me tell you about Dry Creek Estate weddings. Several acres away are some residential homes that have the privilege...
A Cedar Ridge Winery Wedding
Last weekend, Jim and I made the trek out to Swisher, Iowa for another Felix and Fingers wedding at the Cedar Ridge Winery (www.crwine.com)! Who knew this place existed... and in Iowa nonetheless (or even the Midwest!!) After hours of driving through cornfield after...
Par-a-Dice Hotel Entertainment
Having played at the Par-a-Dice Casino on numerous occasions, I have become very familiar with the hotel. Although I only live an hour away, our hotel rooms have always been provided by the casino, and it's hard to turn down a room as nice as theirs. Not only are...
