WinterFest at the Lake Geneva Riviera!
Felix and Fingers were on the move once again last weekend at the Lake Geneva Riviera for the WinterFest. What kind of event is this, you ask? Well, for starters, it's a parking nightmare. Other than that, it's actually lots of fun! We were asked by the folks over at...
ORT at the Marriott Resort!
ORT! Here we come! This was the second time we were able to venture out to the Marriott for the ORT showcase in two years. The first year was just the original Felix (the one writing this post) and Fingers. After a two year absence, we decided to show up in style!...
Meadowbrook Country Club Hosts Modine Party
As I often say, no two shows are the same. This was especially different for me, as it was my first time to play with "The Fox." This is the name that has worked out best so far. Normally we are Felix and Fingers, but when Emily joined the organization, we knew...
Ceremony Music? Reception Music? First Dances?
Planning a wedding is an undertaking filled with difficult decisions, and near the top of that list sits the menacing questions of specific tunes. For some couples, they've had a special song since day one that they need to play. For normal couples (including me,...
Wedding Ceremony Processional Music Suggestions
Planning a wedding is hard, and when every choice seems more important than the last, a lot of pressure naturally falls on picking the perfect tune for walking down the aisle. After all, this is your big moment - your grand entrance! Let me take some of the pressure...
All-Request Private Piano Party
Things weren't quite as usual for Felix and Fingers in Barrington Hills last week. Felix was there, but Fingers was nowhere to be found. Or was it the other way around? The truth is, I ditched my alias (whether it be Felix or Fingers,) as this party had requested...
Saint Patricks Day Entertainment
St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner (that is, if you plan ahead.) We suggest you do. It's a busy holiday, and finding the right entertainment for your event or party could leave you with limited options if you wait too long. Felix and Fingers Dueling Pianos...
Strike! Dueling Pianos at Pinstripes!
Pinstripes has leather chairs AND dueling pianos!? Ok, so here's how it all went down. First, we arrived at the location where we store our wonderful trailer, affectionately named "Audrey." After shoveling her out of the snow, we drive to the venue. It's called...
That Bar Mitzvah Mosh Pit Song
What? You don't know that song? Don't worry. In all fairness, there is not just one song that might be played during the traditional chair lift, or as people dance to the Hora (a circular dance,) or even during a mosh pit. Yes, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs can get really crazy,...
Park Place Banquet Facility Hosts Dueling Pianos
Felix and Fingers visited the beautiful Park Place banquet facility in Crystal Lake, IL to add some spice to HR Green engineering's holiday party! I had never been to this venue, but Dave was really excited to play here because he'd actually had his wedding reception...
Fisher Controls Unable To Stump Dueling Pianists At Corporate Event
Ok. I can't really say 'all' the songs, because we simply ran out of time and had so many requests come in. However, before the show, a few gentlemen hinted that they would be trying to stump us. Having played with Mike Sherman on many occasions, I knew he welcomed...
Why Have A New Year’s Eve Wedding?
There was clear blue water, bathing suits, tropical drinks, yet here we were in the middle of Iowa on New Year's Eve. The wedding ceremony began in Florida, but when it was time to come home, I suppose they weren't ready to get away from the water. Besides, the...
