The Candle Light Inn, a dockside club on the Mississippi, recently hosted an unforgettable dueling piano event featuring the talented duo from Felix And Fingers. On the evening of August 26, 2023, the lower deck of the venue provided a stunning view of the river, creating the perfect backdrop for an evening of lively entertainment.
A Venue Like No Other
Situated on the banks of the Mississippi, the Candle Light Inn offers a unique and picturesque setting for any event. As the dueling pianos were set up, boats and jet skis passed by, adding to the excitement in the air. The view from the lower deck was simply breathtaking, making it one of the best gig locations the performers had ever experienced.
R.G. – The Man Behind the Scenes
R.G., the dedicated contact at the Candle Light Inn, ensured that everything ran smoothly throughout the night. Juggling the catering and bar staff, he went above and beyond to assist the performers. From helping them find their performance space to providing water bottles before setup was even complete, R.G.’s attention to detail and commitment to excellence were truly impressive.
Yacht Rock and Delectable Delights
As the dueling pianos set the mood with some smooth Yacht rock tunes, the Candle Light Inn rolled out a mouthwatering buffet. Shrimp cocktails and fried fish perfectly complemented the boat club atmosphere, allowing guests to indulge in delicious treats while enjoying the riverside ambiance. It was a feast for both the ears and the taste buds!
The event, which hadn’t been held for five years, marked the venue’s attempt to revive this beloved tradition. The low deck ceilings and the stunning sunset over the river created an intimate atmosphere that drew in the crowd. From the first minutes of the show, around ten tables were filled with enthusiastic guests requesting their favorite songs.
One thing was clear about this crowd – they were ready to sing and dance the night away! Classic rock and disco hits ruled the evening, and one particular guest, Brenda, stole the show. Rumor had it that she used to dance on MTV in the 80s, and her Tina Turner and disco moves, executed flawlessly in stiletto heels, became the undeniable highlights of the night.
