The crowds for Oktoberfest with The Alex Meixner Band keep growing– and they’re partying like champions!!! We had great gigs at Wolff’s Biergarten (Albany, NY), Pilsener Haus (Hoboken, NJ), Stoudt’s Brewery (Adamstown, PA) and even a private party for a Yacht Club in South Jersey– all jiving and polkaing to the Oktoberfest grooves!
This week keeps the party in the northeast with a quick show at the Villa Roma in Callicoon, NY on Tuesday and one of our favorite intimate spots- The Village Lanterne in Lindenhurst (Long Island) on Wednesday— as well as a private party in Jersey again on Thursday before the weekend kicks off at the infamous Reading Liederkrantz Oktoberfest on Friday; Hunter Mountain on Saturday and Bear Mountain on Sunday. These are all great places to catch the band and get your Oktoberfest on!
In the news department– we will be premiering our new drummer- Tom Haller from Maryland, this weekend… Welcome him to the 3 Ring Circus… He’s being trained by both Klancnik and Chav — and of course the rest of the boys in the band- so we’re all excited to throw him on stage this week!!!!
Also- a little birdie (or chicken) seems to have told me we might have some new t-shirts this weekend… Remember, you can keep calm all week at work, but when it’s time to Oktoberfest- why bother… it’s a lot more fun to let your hair down…… Prost!!!!!
