Big Guy & The Cheesehead

Big Guy Hats superfan Jeff Kahlow is one fine artist of foam & glue, and a great friend. He was kind enough to bring many of his works to our The Premier event with Chester Marcol to show to the public. This wasn’t the first time we did this, the previous being at Thelma Art … Continue reading

Green & Gold Day

A bit late in sharing this, but always great to get with friends & fans in Green Bay, especially when the Packers and Art are involved. We had a great Green & Gold Day last fall at The Premier with the great Chester Marcol signing, and a fantastic display of Jeff Kahlow’s foam creations (aka, … Continue reading

Things Happened At Hedberg

Pictures from our show at Hedberg Public Library in Janesville.  It was a heck of a fun time with my friend Steve “The Owner” Tate showing up, as well is many terrific Janesvillians (not a word, I know, but a fun one). * * * 

Chris Kroeze on Team Blake

Singer-Musician and Wisconsin native from Barron County (where I grew up) may have the big stage on The Voice, but the locals in the area sure know how to support one of their own.  So much love all over the county, and rightfully so.   Good Luck, Chris on #TeamBlake * * *    

The Awesomeness Of Don Q

While down in Dodgeville for an event at the Dodgeville Public Library in April, I finally got to stay at a hotel I’d been driving past and wanting to stay at for years, the Don Q Inn. Was it because of the awesome airplane outside that apparently has Farrah Fawcett’s signature on the hull?  Could … Continue reading

Martha Merrell’s Is A Marvel

Martha Merrell’s Bookstore in downtown Waukesha is truly a marvel of tenacity in spite of the online order craze most bookstores have faced over the past decade or so.  It’s a fun place with lots of unique options, and a great owner who makes your visit wonderfully interesting.  Plus they now sell all of our … Continue reading

Shell Lake Arts Center Event

Join us for the Shell Lake Arts Center showing of the documentary on April 1st, 2017.  No, this is not an April Fools Day joke, and yes, that tiny town in Northwest Wisconsin does have an arts center as it is quite the artistic, art driven town.  Hope to see you there. * * * … Continue reading

The Legendary Press Gazette

If you must do a book and DVD signing with the legendary Packers kicker Chester Marcol, it should be in places like the lobby of the also legendary Green Bay Press Gazette building in downtown Green Bay.  So much history, too much awesome architecture, and way too much Packers Glory.  Oh what a great evening … Continue reading

Orson Welles “War Of The Worlds” in history today: The Presteblog

78 years ago today, a Cheesehead (though the term was still young then) scared the pants off of most of America with his radio broadcast.  Orson Welles was a Wisconsin native who grew up in Kenosha, and became one of the greatest filmmakers in history. Today in 1938, CBS (radio, obviously, because there was no … Continue reading
