COVER STORY // MARTY PAULSEN

Coach Paulsen teaches Kaden Bebow how to grip the bat when laying down a bunt.

Marty Paulsen:

Retirement is not an option

BY MICHAEL MENTZER It doesn’t seem possible that Marty Paulsen experienced a problem with stuttering until he was 22 years old, about the time he became a classroom teacher.

Today, almost a half century after launching a teaching career at Goodrich High School in Fond du Lac, Fond du Lac High School baseball coach Marty Paulsen has no such problem at all. The word “glib” springs to mind to describe his command of the spoken word.

Words, humorous stories, motivational speeches and the names of players (past, present and future) effortlessly roll off his tongue in a rat-a-tat-tat rhythm and style.

He could be a stand-up comic if he felt like it. In fact, that’s just what he is at times.

Paulsen is known far and wide as Coach, Marty, Mr. Paulsen (in class) and even Lou, a reference to the legendary Lou Holtz, former Notre Dame football coach, ESPN college football analyst and charismatic motivational speaker.

Paulsen bears a striking physical resemblance to Holtz, talks like him, lisps like Lou if he feels the need, and even drives

and flies around the country doing motivational talks, just like Lou Holtz does.

The difference — Marty Paulsen talks baseball; Lou Holtz talks football and gets paid a whole lot more than Marty does.

Coach Marty and his longtime friend, former Mr. Steak teammate and fellow baseball junkie Gary “Red the Barber” Muellenbach traveled in mid-June on their 18th annual trip together to the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska. Over the years, the Fond du Lac contingent to Omaha has fluctuated, but Muellenbach’s son Eric and Paulsen’s son Chip have become mainstays.

‘LOU’ ON THE LOOSE “We get there and we see this guy selling tickets,” Muellenbach recalled, “so Marty walks up to him, sticks out his hand and says, ‘Hi, nice to see you, I’m Lou Holtz.’

“The guy looks at Marty and says, ‘You know, you really do look like Lou Holtz… you actually could be Holtz, but you’re not Lou. I’ve known Lou for 26 years and you are not Lou Holtz,” Muellenbach said, laughing all through the story.

Paulsen took it in stride, like he does most everything. “You got me,” he told the

L6 | SceneNewspaper.com | Fond Du Lac | July 2015

ticket seller, smiled, shrugged and moved on.

Paulsen has been approached countless times by autograph-seekers — so many times that he doesn’t bother to explain who he really is. It tends to get too complicated, so he just gladly signs “Lou Holtz,” engages in a little small talk and bids adieu.

“I’ve signed his name for people all over the country,” Paulsen said.

The autograph, by the way, is “dead on.” Coach Marty figures if he’s going to sign the coaching icon’s name, the least he can do is make the signature look exactly right.

One of his Lou Holtz autographs and a personal message from the Coach (a la Marty) is framed and prominently displayed behind the bar of a restaurant in Leadville, Colorado, where Paulsen and his family were having dinner a number of years ago. His wife Cindy and their children looked away and shielded their eyes as Paulsen went into his Lou act for the pleading Notre Dame fan.

“He wanted me to write something about Notre Dame, and I drew a blank for a minute on how to spell ‘Notre’…but I got it right, thankfully.”

“Far as I know, it’s still there behind the bar,” Paulsen said with a smile.

HAVE SOME FUN Marty Paulsen likes to have a good time and share it with those around him. He’s devoted himself to the pursuit of fun.

“I try not to do anything unless it’s fun,” he said on a recent afternoon at his baseball camp for “the young guys” at the Fond du Lac High School diamond.

“If you want to have fun, just follow me around.”

That philosophy is a hallmark of his 47 years as head baseball coach, first at Goodrich High School and now at Fondy High. If he’s talking with someone about a game, he doesn’t ask if he or she won. He asks them if they had fun.

“The No. 1 goal is to have fun,” Paulsen said. “The No. 2 goal is to prepare to play the game the best we can.”

Good things and ultimate success will grow out of those goals, he says. And they have.

His overall record in the course of 47 years stands at an exceptional 547 wins and 369 losses. His teams have advanced to State six times and his team in 2000 won

it all.

“A lot of schools have never made it to State, and a whole lot more have never won the state championship,” Paulsen said in a reflective moment.

“I have a love of the sport and a passion for it,” he said. “Heck no, I’m not thinking about retiring. I’ll be done when I’m done.

I’m nowhere near done.”

HOLY SNICKERCATS He has a number of Marty-isms that he’s coined over the years.

He unleashed “Holy Snickercats” when he was being interviewed in the wake of the 2000 state championship game.

“People were saying, ‘What the heck is a Snickercat?’ Gotta have some fun.”

In tribute to Ernie Banks of the Chicago Cubs, he regales his players with “Let’s play two.”

“Most of them don’t know what I’m talking about so I tell them to ask their parents,” he said. “If nothing else, I’ll get ’em to talk to each other.”

And then there’s “No kidding, Dick Tracy,” except the real word is not “kidding.”

He also resorts to Stengelese (Casey Stengel), perhaps as a baseball tribute: “Something I hate is what I don’t like,” he tells his students in class as well his players on the field. When they look at him like he’s lost it, he tells them, “Think about it!”

Paulsen has made a name for himself well beyond his Fond du Lac circles, thanks to his sayings, wit, humor and ability to tell stories with deeper meaning in terms of education, athletics and life in general.

“I’ll go anywhere anybody wants me to,” Paulsen said of his mission as a motivational speaker.

He’s delivered around 125 speeches over the past 25 years for groups large and small. Three years ago, he spoke to an audience of 3,800 in Dallas at the American Baseball Coaches Association conference.

Turns out he warmed up the crowd for fireballer Nolan Ryan, one of the biggest baseball legends in Texas history.

Paulsen and Mark Fuller, the baseball coach at Cumberland High School, struck up a friendship years ago and have developed their own personal motivational show.

“I’m Johnny Carson and he’s Ed McMahon,” Paulsen pointed. “Works Continue on Page L8

pretty well for us.”

“Marty is an upbeat person, a highenergy guy,” said his friend Red the Barber.

“He’s fun to be with. He’s a good fit for the kids whether it’s in the classroom on the field.” Or even with coaches and baseball buffs on the rubber-chicken circuit.

BASEBALL CAMPS FOR KIDS Coach Marty relishes his annual summer baseball camps with youngsters.

He focuses on fundamentals, proper techniques, communication skills, competition, cooperation and, of course, fun.

“They get better right in front of your eyes,” Paulsen said. “The older guys help the younger ones. They make the young guys feel welcome. We have our own World Series at the end of the sessions.”

He admits he is concerned about the lack of interaction and communication among young people.

“They spend so much time on their computers and their phones,” Paulsen noted. “You can’t be on the phone when you’re on the field. That’s a good thing.”

Paulsen has a photographic memory when it comes to his players and his teams over nearly five decades.

He can name players, the batting orders, their positions, team by team starting with his first team in 1969.

“I’m looking younger than members of my first team,” he says with his best Lou Holtz grin. “And — think about it — I’ve got to be one of the only guys to coach in six different decades.”

PLAYER NOW HIS BOSS He marvels at the fact that his one-time All-Conference centerfielder Jim Sebert is now his boss. Sebert serves as the Fond du Lac superintendent of schools and is one of Paulsen’s biggest boosters. In fact, it’s likely that Sebert and a host of others of a like mind eventually will be instrumental in naming the Fond du Lac Baseball Complex in honor of Marty Paulsen.

One of Paulsen’s fondest memories is his son Chip playing for him in 1989 and being selected as the first-team All-State catcher. Without missing a beat, he points out that he’s equally proud of his daughters Missy and Trish for their athletic and academic accomplishments. He says none of it would have happened without his wife Cindy.

“You can’t do all this without a very supportive wife,” he said.

He confesses to a sense of wonder about how it all transpired. He was hired in 1968 at Goodrich to succeed business education teacher Gordy Ferg. A year later he was named head baseball coach, even though he had never been an assistant coach. He started at the top and stayed there.

His first two teams went to State despite his total lack of experience. “Thankfully, I was blessed with good players,” he said.

Gordy Ferg went from teaching to running the Mr. Steak franchise in Fond du Lac. He created the Mr. Steak softball

team, which became a local sports dynasty.

Paulsen met Muellenbach on the Mr. Steak team and they became teammates for 16 years and best of friends for life, along with several others who played for years on Ferg’s team.

PENCIL YOURSELF IN The classroom and the baseball field have gone hand in hand throughout Paulsen’s career.

“Do you have one of my pencils,” he invariably asks. If you don’t, do your best to get one. His philosophy for baseball, education and life is spelled out there.

It looks like a series of abbreviations.

In a nutshell this is what it says: Attitude is comprised of enthusiasm, energy, effort, encouragement, excellence, ethics and enjoyment, “not necessarily in that order.”

Call them the Seven E’s for the sake of convenience.

The message rings loud and clear for anyone who has been around Marty Paulsen for any length of time at all…in the classroom or on the field.

Michael Mentzer, now retired after a 40-year newspaper career, writes a monthly column for Scene.

SPORTS // THORNBROOK

New Look to Thornbrook

BY MICHAEL CASPER In 1986, Bill and Kathy Casper began building a par-3 golf course on the land across the road from their home along the east shore of Lake Winnebago.

“It took us three summers,” Bill said “to complete the work. The timing was such that when our daughter Barbara Jean retired from the Air Force, she returned home to help run the business, and be the course professional.”

The Casper’s ran Thornbrook Golf Course for a decade before selling to Ron Stageman, an engineer for Mercury Marine.

Most recently, Thornbrook has again changed hands, and undergone something of a facelift.

Hidden in plain sight just off Highway 151 down Gladstone Beach Road, Thornbrook has realized a redesign of the layout, a new clubhouse, and the addition of the latest trend...foot golf.

Steve and Amy Riley purchased the course from Stageman, and with it undertook the daunting task of daily fairway mowing, greens keeping, watering, fertilizing, and general proprietorship.

The Riley’s are both from the Fond du Lac, having started an electrical supply business (Riley Electrical Supply) together in 1986, at the time selling energy efficient lighting.

“I used to golf at Thornbrook,” Steve said “I wasn’t an avid golfer, but occasionally we’d cut out of work early and play nine. It was beautiful then, and it’s beautiful now, a park-like setting with woods, ponds and streams...just a nice place to relax and unwind.”

Twenty years ago the Riley’s moved to rural Markesan, and commuted to work.

They recently realized the desire to get closer to home where their family and friends are, but at the same time wanted a remote setting at which to reside.

“We saw Thornbrook was for sale,” Steve said “and luckily things worked out.”

When the snow’s not flying, running a golf course is a time and sweat expender.

“Thankfully we had a ton of help from

the guy we bought it from, Ron Stageman,” Steve said “who helps us out whenever we ask, and Bill Casper who still lives across the road has been a tremendous help as well. Bill helps with everything from working on equipment, like the original 8N tractor he drove when he was 12 years old! For a guy who’s 84 years old to help us with stuff like rebuilding the carburetor

our living area.”

And then there’s the addition of “Foot Golf.”

“It’s a relatively new sport,” Steve said “which is similar to golf except you use your foot as your club, and a soccer ball rather than a golf ball. The holes are 21inches wide and located next to the greens. So, all the people who grew up

to get it running again...it’s wonderful and handy to have a neighbor like that. And the knowledge about the course. He built the place, so he knows where everything is, from hidden and overgrown sprinkler heads and irrigation, to how everything is designed to work. Any changes we ever think of doing, I always want to run past him because of his experience.”

The Riley’s had a proven sense for business, but the learning curve of maintaining a golf course is different.

“We became voracious readers of magazines on the topic of course maintenance,” Steve said “and we’ve watched a lot of YouTube videos, believe it or not. There’s a lot of good information on ‘how-to’ out there on the web, and you can find answers to nearly anything, and hopefully they’re the right answers (laugh).”

There have been changes since the Casper’s broke ground 29 years ago.

“One of the biggest modifications is the conversion of one of the existing buildings,” Steve said “into the new clubhouse. We did some extensive remodeling, and because of the building’s location, we changed the order of the holes. We changed one of the tee boxes too because, at some point, we’ll be putting an addition onto the old clubhouse and that will become our home. We wanted to direct the golfers a little bit away from what will be the house, so they’re not right on top of

playing soccer, and now have nothing to do with their soccer talents, can now enjoy a round of foot golf!”

And there are availabilities for golf

L10 | SceneNewspaper.com | Fond Du Lac | July 2015

Steve and Amy Riley, new owners of Thornbrook Golf Course leagues, both regular and foot golf.

“We’d welcome folks who’d like to organize or join a league,” Steve said “I know with other activities going on, everyone’s free time is short, so we’re open to whatever time periods...say for example you’d like to form a short league that only lasts a month or six weeks long, we’re certainly open to that idea.”

The gem that is Thornbrook Golf Course, now has a new sheen.

FOOD & DRINK // BREWMASTER

OVERRATED!

BY STEVE LONSWAY

The Stone Arch Brew House brewery team has always been fond of the beers Surly makes and with a few recent trips to the Minneapolis/ St. Paul area, we were able to get an ample supply. Unfortunately our stock wore thin.

Good for us and other beer aficionados, Surly beers can now be found right here is Wisconsin.

When this news broke we were quick to call our distributor to land some of these fine brews for our Tap Room (and personal stash as well). The truly hard part was to find the one brand we wanted to write about. We ended up choosing the one we were most unfamiliar with…

Overrated! Surly Overrated is a self-proclaimed “Pale gold American (West Coast) IPA with fruity-citrus aromas from generous dry hopping”. Our team used goblets for our Surly sampling experience. Here is what we found: The beer poured a true golden blond color and produced a golden hue head that consisted primarily of tightly formed CO2 bubbles.

Unanimously we noticed a definite haze to an almost cloudy appearance. Typically dry hopped beers will appear hazy which is nothing

Surly Brewing Company Minneapolis & Brooklyn Center, MN

more than a visual thing, nothing that should steer you away. Some breweries will filter the haze out, but unfortunately it also strips some of the hop character out as well.

The nose (or scent) of this beer screams hops! Floral, citrusy, earthy, musty, grapefruit are all words our team used to describe it. A couple of us thought it was absent of the piney tones that are typical in a West Coast IPA. It was still quite pleasurable however.

As you would expect with a beer like this, our teams notes on the taste/flavor portion of this beer was pretty diverse. I personally noticed a malt forward push with Craig noticing caramel in the flavor. The other guys reported a lack of malt tones. A definite earthy tone came through with Taylor, Brian and Craig all noting a boozy or alcoholic flavor popping in. Very hop forward was the overall consensus. Citrus and floral definitely shines through on the palette and the medium body was just right for the style.

Surly Overrated finishes strong, both in hop character with its bitterness and warming from the presence of alcohol. Taylor commented that it finishes almost like a lemon-

Summer ClearanCe Sale

lime soda. None-the-less it finishes clean and dry with a slight warming effect.

Surly Brewing got their start in 2004 when an aspiring brewer convinced his parents and wife to convert the family abrasives business into a brewery. In order to be a brewery you need to brew beer and Surly did just that in December, 2005. With the help of heavy metal music and incorrectly operating fermenter controls, the first batch of Surly became reality on December 30th, 2005. Two months later they hit the streets to sell their flagship brew Furious. Furious was a bit ahead of its time and not well received at first by the local bars and restaurants but fortunately they have since come around. Then, good news came in June of 2007 when BeerAdvocate magazine named Surly Brewing the Best Brewery in America which was shortly followed up by more good news that RateBeer named Surly Darkness the best American beer in the world. With such fine accolades on their resume, they inspired to grow to not only handle increased demand, but to have a destination brewery where people can watch the beer being brewed, drink it and enjoy a fine meal as well. Only one problem

prevented this dream from coming to fruition – an outdated, Prohibition-era Minnesota law.

This law prevented breweries from selling their beer from their location (crazy, isn’t it?). Surly immediately went to work to change that law but soon realized it may be a bigger task then even they could handle. So what did they do?

They turned to Surly Nation and encouraged them via social media to contact their legislators to help turn that law into history. On May 24, 2011 the then Minnesota Governor signed the “Surly Bill” into law allowing breweries that produce less than 250,000 barrels of beer annaully to sell their works at their breweries.

Two years later, Surly broke ground on their next adventure…a destination brewery.

Finally in December 2014, after a record breaking cold winter and record spring rainfall, Surly opened their doors to an amazing facility that truly is a destination. Brewery, beer hall, restaurant, banquet hall and amazing beer garden await you in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota bordering Minneapolis.

FINAL WORD: Surly Overrated! Is truly overrated…in name only. A great beer, in a great package, by a great brewery. Cheers!

FOOD & DRINK // FROM THE WINE CAVE

From the Wine Cave BY KIMBERLY FISHER V i v a La France!

Fr a n c e i s a place of many wonders and has many unique grape growing areas. The Rhone Valley is the oldest established winemaking region in France dating back 600 years before the Romans.

Although the Rhone is considered one wine region, it is divided into two distinct parts based on climate and grape variety.

The Northern Rhone comprises less than five percent of the total production, but makes some of the area’s most amazing white and red wine. The region is 45 miles long and has the influence of the Mistral winds that are intense and cold. Grape

growing is dominated by two varieties. Red wine is made with the Syrah grape most famously grown in Cornas and Cote Rotie.

The Cornas region is over 130 hectares with a warm continental climate. The region is ancient; over 300 million years old, planted exclusively to Syrah. White wine made in Northern Rhone is made from the Viognier grape most famously in Condrieu.

Cote Rotie also known as the “Roasted Slope,” is a region that is over 1500 years old. The vines are grown on steep Roman Terraces. It has the lowest production per hectares and some of the highest altitude vineyards primarily given over to Syrah and Viognier. Other white varietals permitted in the north are Marsanne and Roussanne. In Cornas, the Syrah grape is grown on granite soil allowing the grape to have power rather than finesse. One notable producer in Northern Rhone is Jean Luc Colombo. Known as a visionary

for the region, he was the first to use small oak barrels and vinify in stainless steel. He is the recipient of the French Legion of Honor, which is the highest civilian honor in the country of France and has achieved over 150 scores of over 90+ points from trade publications such as Robert Parker and Wine Spectator since the winery began in 1982.

The Southern Rhone is home to 95 percent of the valley’s grape production. The soil is primarily stones that are rounded pebbles called gallets with a mixture of shingle and stone clay. Twenty five grapes are grown in the south, but the dominant red grape is Grenache, often blended with Mourvedre and Cinsault. Leading producers in the area include E Guigal, Paul Jaboulet, Perrin and Chapoutier. Jean Luc Colombo also produces wines in the Southern Rhone region and has created a label called “Les Abeilles” (French for the bees) which features a Cotes du Rhone Red

and White. As Jean has been known as the Syrah wizard, he is also known for helping to save the bees. A disease called Colony Collapse Disorder has mysteriously been decimating bee populations throughout the world, including the Rhone River Valley. Honeybees pollinate more than 90% of our flowering grapes, and over the years, the bees and their colonies are dying.

Ten percent of sales of Jean Luc Colombo Cotes du Rhone Red and White go to research at UC Davis, to help research and find ways to save the bees.

When in Rhone, do what the Rhon – ans do; drink Rhone wine. The ancient soils, the vast and diverse acreage and the centuries of viticulture make the Rhone River valley one of the very special wine growing areas in the world. Explore a region in France that can offer you so many nuances and taste what makes this area so unique.

FOOD & DRINK // TRICIA’S TABLE

BY TRISH DERGE

Burger Time!

Trish’s Delicious Avocado Topping

Anybody can squish a few patty’s out of a pound of burger, toss them on the grill and singe the dickens out of them until they’re flavorless and dry as a Saharan paleontologist’s sack lunch.

But if you want your guests at your cookout to enjoy their meal, and not collectively roll their eyes in disgust at the blackened disk you place on their bun and say, “Better load up on the condiments,” take note of a few tips from an expert.

Jamie Schweid is executive vice president/co-butcher of Schweid & Sons, a purveyor of ground beef that was founded in the late 1800’s on New York’s Lower East Side.

Jamie says: 1. Always lay the burger cheese-side down on the bun.

This way your bottom bun won’t get soggy, and your burger will taste better.

2. Don’t just toss the patty on the grill.

If cooking outdoors, use a grill mat or camp griddle to ensure a nice sear and keep your patty from sticking or losing its shape.

3. Forget that frying pans even exist.

If cooking on a stovetop, a cast iron skillet is the best way to get a restaurant-

I love this on top of a burger, or just on a hearty piece of toast for breakfast.

• Chop three scallions and a clove of garlic, and saute in with olive oil a pan. Set aside.

• In a medium bowl smoosh an avocado with a fork.

• Squeeze in a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice.

• Add a quarter cup of crumbled blue cheese.

• Fold in the onions and garlic.

• Pepper to taste, and enjoy!

style crust on the patty’s exterior.

4. Fat is your friend.

For a juicy, delicious burger, opt for meat that has a 75/25 lean to fat ratio.

5. Always pre-heat and pre-oil your cooking surface.

Pro tip: Cook some bacon and use the fat as your oil!

6. Don’t bother with pulling down your hood.

Closing the lid on your grill does not aid in cooking the burger, only in melting the cheese (that is, if you’re putting the cheese on top, where it definitely should not be).

7. Your patty should weigh no more than eight ounces.

Any larger than that will jeopardize your ability to cook the burger to a perfect medium rare.

8. Cold hands form the best patties.

Try rubbing a piece of ice on your palms just before shaping. Wash your hands with soap and water before you get started.

9. NEVER put a burger on a nontoasted bun.

The juices will run out and ruin it. The only exception to this rule is sliders, which should be served on soft or potato rolls, with cheese on the bottom, of course.

ENTERTAINMENT // CONCERT WATCH JULY 2015

Gary Sinise & the Lt. Dan Band at EAA AirVenture!

BY JANE SPIETZ Actor/humanitarian/musician Gary Sinise has enjoyed a multifaceted career. He started out playing in bands as a teenager, but became totally captivated by theater after performing in a high school production of West Side Story. Sinise went on to co-found the Steppenwolf Theater in Chicago and still supports its activities.

A prolific actor, he won an Emmy for his portrayal of George Wallace on television, a Golden Globe for Truman, in which he played Harry S. Truman and he was Detective Mac Taylor on CSI:NY. Sinise was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role as Lt. Dan Taylor in Forrest Gump.

It was this last character that eventually led to his great passion for working to support veterans and veterans’ service organizations for the past thirty years. After forming the Gary Sinise & the Lt. Dan Band, Sinise and his band regularly hit

the road to back these efforts, and he also makes solo appearances to help get the word out. His Gary Sinise Foundation was established in 2011 to raise funds and promote resources for servicemen and women. Sinise co-founded the Operation International Children program which ships school supply kits to troops serving in conflict areas overseas. Severely wounded veterans benefit from the Gary Sinise Foundation’s building of custom Smart Homes for them. He has earned numerous notable awards for his work, such as the Presidential Citizens Medal, The Ellis Island Medal of Honor, The Bob Hope Award for Excellence in Entertainment from the Medal of Honor Society, and the Spirit of the USO Award. His most recent award was the 2015 Service to America Leadership Award from the NAB Education Foundation (NABEF).

Gary Sinise called me from Los Angeles not long ago to update me on his activities, including the Lt. Dan Band’s upcoming

WHAT: Gary Sinise & the Lt. Dan Band WHERE: EAA AirVenture, Oshkosh WI WHEN, COST & INFO: 7 PM Friday, July 24 performance at the 2015 EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh WI. Jane Spietz: Hi Gary. You initially became hooked on acting in high school.

Gary Sinise: I was playing in bands from the time I was in, like, 6th grade and hung out with the band guys a lot. Living in Glen Ellyn Illinois, I went to a production of West Side Story in high school and really liked watching the play. We then moved to Highland Park. It turns out that high school was doing West Side Story. I was standing in the hallway with some of my band members when the drama teacher walked by. He said we should come audi-

tion for the play because we looked like gang members and could play them in the play. I thought that was funny and I had just seen it, so I thought I would go check it out. I was standing outside the audition watching all these pretty girls walking in, so I followed them. (Laughs) I ended up auditioning and got in the show. From that point on, all I wanted to do is act in plays and play in bands. When I graduated high school, I started a theater company called Steppenwolf which has been around now for over forty years. I’m one of the three founders of the company so I’m still involved with fundraising and some of the things going on there.

JS: Have you been involved in any acting projects lately?

GS: Ever since CSI:NY went off the air in February of 2013, I have just poured myself into my foundation and military support work. I’ve been doing that pretty much full time for the past two and a half Continue on Page R14

years. So it’s been a little bit of time away from that, but I have a television series that I’m going to start shooting the end of July.

It’s a spinoff of the “Criminal Minds” show on CBS. We’ll be spinning off a new series called “Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders.”

It explores the international division of the FBI. JS: How was the Gary Sinise Foundation established?

GS: I had been working with several military charities, involved with veterans’ groups in the ‘90s working a little bit with the DAV (Disabled American Veterans) and

in the ‘80s working with Vietnam veterans groups in the Chicago area. After September 11th, I just wanted to do something for our active duty service members who were deploying to Afghanistan and Iraq so I started volunteering for the USO and to support lots of different military charities that were popping up. I would just lend my services with the band or volunteer to help raise money or whatever I could do.

After working with some of them for several years, it just became clear that the next step was for me to start my own veterans charity called the Gary Sinise Foundation.

I’ve used what I’ve learned over the years in supporting men and women to try to bring some resources to help benefit them and their families. Our men and women are going to be called upon for years to come. Therefore, I stepped up to try to do my part in helping to support them. They are our freedom providers. It’s a dangerous world and they do dangerous things so we should back them up.

JS: What’s your take on the level of support that is provided to today’s service members versus what was offered to veterans in the past?

R14 | SceneNewspaper.com | July 2015

GS: Let’s look in retrospect. I’m motivated because of the Viet Nam veterans that I know, and the ones that I have in my family. My veteran support work goes back to the ‘70s and early ‘80s with the recognition as a young man that our Viet Nam veterans had really gotten a bad deal coming home. So my motivation today – the seeds of that – were planted years ago by the Viet Nam veterans who educated me. If you look at what’s happening today, I’m certainly motivated to do whatever I can to ensure that our active duty service members today are treated much better than our Viet Nam veterans were when they came home from war, and that what happened to our Viet Nam veterans never happens again. That you volunteer for service or go off to serve your country, you get shot at, you see your buddies get killed or wounded, you struggle with long deployments away from home, serious things happen to you, then you come home and the country turns its back on you. That’s no good. We never want that to happen.

That’s a big motivator for me, and I think that’s a big motivator for a lot of people.

We recognize that that was a bad deal and that hopefully we learn some hard lessons from that period.

JS: The fact that there are more than 40,000 military charities out there kind of speaks pretty loudly to the fact that people do care about our service members.

GS: I don’t think it’s up to the government to do everything. First of all, because they can’t, and I think it’s up to us as citizens who benefit from the freedom that’s provided by these service members who deploy at dangerous places around the world. It’s up to us, in some ways, to ensure that the veterans in our own communities, neighborhoods, towns and cities are taken care of. We can all do that by just stepping up and saying I want to take some action, or donate to an organization that is taking action. One of the things that I can do as a celebrity, as a public figure, is shine a light on things. It all became clear that there was a useful way that my success in the movie and television business could be applied.

JS: Share the story about the formation of the Lt. Dan Band.

GS: I started doing USO tours after the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq started.

I would go out and shake hands and take Continue on Page R16

pictures. I had these band members that I played with for fun, and I finally talked the USO into letting me take the band members with me. I had been just shaking hands, and I wanted to entertain in some way. I remember the first tour I did overseas in Iraq. I was on a tour with Kid Rock, Lee Ann Womack and these other entertainers that were playing music. I immediately started talking to the USO. I said, “I have a band. I can go do this!”

Because I’m an actor, they look at me like “Well, yeah sure, you’ve got a band.” But eventually, after five or six handshake tours, they let me take the band out on the road for the USO to play for the troops. That first year, after we went into Iraq, I went on six USO tours, like every month for six months. I was going “Send me to Iraq, send me to Europe, send me to Asia, wherever.”

I just wanted to go be with the troops, visit our military, say thank you and pat ‘em on the back. Everywhere I was going on those handshake tours, they were calling me ‘Lt. Dan’ from Forrest Gump. So, when I started taking the musicians, I said

let’s call it Gary Sinise & the Lt Dan Band.

We play contemporary, classic, blues, pop, rock, country. I want a big variety in the show because we play for little kids on these bases as well as older veterans. We’ll even play ‘40s tunes if we’re doing the DAV convention, for example, and they’ve got some World War II veterans attending. We try to play a little something for everybody.

JS: What does it mean for you to be returning to perform at EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh in July?

GS: What I love about AirVenture is they’re so veteran-friendly. There are so many veterans there. We are always part of the big veterans salute and tribute. It’s always a pleasure to be around so many veteran-friendly families and so many patriotic Americans. I really enjoy our doing it and I’m glad we’re coming back this year. I hope that a lot of people come out to see us again.

SUMMER JAMS!

ENTERTAINMENT // SHORT BRANCH

LIVE MUSIC - NO COVER!

Short Branch Saloon Goes Long on Music

BY GEORGE HALAS If you have not been to The Short Branch Saloon in Neenah in the last couple of years or so, be prepared to be very nicely surprised at what they’ve done to the place.

Walking in the front door, the bar still has the same rustic feel it has always had.

Keep walking and the end of the bar opens into an area with a new, raised stage, an excellent house sound system and tables arrayed in a way that facilitates listening and viewing as well as leaving a very comfortable dance floor.

Continuing past the stage and heading outside, it opens up into a large big-treeshaded lawn with eight picnic tables, an outdoor stage and a bar that can accommodate up to 200 hundred people comfortably.

If you are there on a Saturday or Sunday morning, you may notice that a lot of folks are drinking Bacon Bloody Mary’s.

If you are there any time, you cannot help but notice the strong commitment to becoming one of the premier music venues in the Fox Valley.

“Our goal at the Short Branch is to provide a great evening out for all of our customers,” said manager Jason Rothe.

“We strive to provide many genres of local talent without a cover charge or overpriced drinks.”

“I’ve got to give a shout out to our owner, Lorrie Davis,” Rothe added, “for providing us with a great vision and the support to accomplish great things. Music is our number one priority and, not only R18 | SceneNewspaper.com | July 2015

are we committed to making The Short Branch a top music destination, we’d like to work with other venues to make Neenah a great music destination.”

Special events are coming up as well.

“One of the highlights to mark on your calendars is our annual corn roast, July 11th, with many great bands headlined

by The Presidents all day and night. Also, make plans to be at our end of the summer luau in August that includes a pig roast and the limbo out in the backyard!”

Rothe emphasized that the changes and improvements are still coming.

“We plan on continuing with the current remodeling that many are seeing as well as adding a kitchen,” he said.

“One of our objectives is to have a Friday fish fry that will accommodate our inside guests and outside in our spacious backyard!”

The Short Branch offers three different regular music “nights” each week, starting on Wednesdays with Classic Rock running from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. In July and August, Bobby Evans and Russ Reiser perform on alternate Wednesdays.

On Thursdays from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m., the Valley Unplugged series is offering A-Town Unplugged, Cool Waters and Christopher Gold.

The musically diverse Summer Showcase presents The Presidents on July 11, Consult The Briefcase on July 18 and Crankin’ Yankees on July 25. The August lineup includes Red Light Saints, Leading The Blind, Dead Horses, Miles Nielson and The Mustache.

NEWS & VIEWS // MEDIA RANTS

Educating for the Public Sphere

BY TONY PALMERI A majority of American adults avoid participation in public discussion of issues.

Given that so much of what passes for public discourse is infected with the twin poisons of prepackaged partisan talking points and mindless put downs of opposing views, avoidance behavior should not be surprising.

Unfortunately, citizen withdrawal from the public sphere has real consequences.

When uncontested bad ideas dominate, policy makers feel empowered to make them into law. The fact that the 400 wealthiest individuals on the Forbes 400 list have more wealth than the bottom 150 million Americans combined is a testament to the power of narrow monied interests to get “reverse Robin Hood” economic policy ideas taken seriously.

How can people become more engaged in solving the problems caused by an unhealthy public sphere? Clearly education has to be part of the solution. As a teacher in a Department of Communication at UW Oshkosh that states as its mission helping students to “find their voice,” I am always looking for ways to encourage public engagement. The rest of this rant describes a seminar I taught in the spring of this year designed to provide students with some tools necessary to analyze and evaluate discourse in the public sphere, and hopefully “raise the bar” for such discourse when choosing to enter that sphere themselves.

R20 | SceneNewspaper.com | July 2015

The seminar was called “Rhetoric in Action.” At the most basic level, rhetoric is the “art of persuasion.” The goal in the course was to expose students to writers in the public sphere for whom persuasion is the major purpose for writing. Newspaper op-ed writers represent probably the best example of the kind of persuaders I had in mind, so I assigned each of the 22 enrolled students a writer that they followed all semester. The assigned writers were Paul Krugman, Thomas Friedman, David Brooks, Maureen Dowd, Frank Bruni, Gail Collins, and Ross Douthat of the New York Times; Leonard Pitts, Jr. of the Miami Herald; Dana Milbank, Eugene Robinson, Kathleen Parker, Katrina vandenHeuvel, Jennifer Rubin, Richard Cohen, E.J.Dionne, Jr., George Will, and Charles Krauthammer of the Washington Post; Meghan Daum and Doyle McManus of the Los Angeles Times; Ezra Klein and Matt Yglesias of Vox.com; and John Nichols of the Madison Capital Times.

My main criteria in selecting the writers were: (1) the writer needed to be engaged consistently in writing about major public policy issues, (2) the writer needed to write for a mainstream source, and (3) the writer needed to have a substantial following. Obviously many writers meet those criteria, so I tried to arrive at a balance of liberal, moderate, and conservative voices.

My own familiarity with the 22 writers was also a consideration; knowing about the writers in advance made it easier for me to determine if students were representing

them accurately in their assigned papers for the course.

The course textbook was The Rhetorical Act: Thinking, Speaking, and Writing Critically by professors Karlyn Campbell, Susan Huxman, and Thomas Burkholder.

The writers conceptualize a successful rhetorical act as one that employs the resources of evidence, argument, organization, and language to overcome challenges making persuasion difficult. Those challenges arise from audience (they often misinterpret messages and are resistant to change), subject and purpose (subjects can be complex and saying yes to the purpose might cost too much), and the rhetor him or herself (a writer’s prior reputation might get in the way of accepting his or her current argument).

Students wrote many short papers analyzing how their assigned writer tried to overcome specific rhetorical challenges, leading to wonderful classroom discussions about public issues and the manner in which mainstream writers frame them. As the semester went on most seemed to be disturbed by how little the writers address issues of concern to young people; debt, lack of enough good paying jobs, and the environment to name just three examples.

I found myself reminding them frequently that the answer was simple: write and speak about the issues you care about. Make a commitment to the public sphere.

The final assignment was a lengthy paper requiring the student to evaluate his or her assigned writer based on artistic

quality, effectiveness, accuracy, and/or ethics. These were some of the most intelligent and enjoyable papers I’ve read in a while. A good number of students were drawn to the ethical standard, which looks favorably on rhetoric that promotes social harmony and unfavorably on that which promotes discord. One student told me that a politiEthics.com website would be more valuate than politiFact. I told her she should start it.

As a result of this course, one student was motivated to publish his own op-ed (on the topic of student debt) for the student Advance Titan newspaper. Another submitted her final paper (arguing that the NYT’s Frank Bruni weds a sense of comic, tragic, and history like a modern Shakespeare) to the Oshkosh Scholar journal of student scholarship.

Like the majority of liberal arts courses offered at the UW, “Rhetoric in Action” provided students with a meaningful opportunity to think critically about civic responsibility. Such opportunities make it more likely that graduates will pay critical attention to what is going on in Madison and Washington. Perhaps that is why so many politicians want to reduce the UW mission to mere concern with job skills.

ENTERTAINMENT // CD REVIEW

MY DESIRE OF YOU CD Review

BY GEORGE HALAS Given that one of the songs on this CD has been nominated for an international award, this reviewer believes that he is not going out on a limb in stating that “My Desire of You” is a great album and arguably the best yet from Jamie Lyn Fletcher.

She has an excellent voice and tastefully subdued vocal style that creates intrigue and a certain journey-into-the-unknown feel. She complements her voice by choosing keys and notes lower than most female vocalist, again creating intrigue. Her songs often sound like the music that sets up the scary part of the movie…or is it romance… or is it both? She is also an outstanding – again intriguing – lyricist.

The title/opening track, “My Desire For You” is a tune that gets you on the first bass note and keeps you with an intoxicating beat and intelligent, inventive lyrics that sit perfectly on top of her piano-driven

groove. She leaves one wondering if she truly embraces her desire; the lyrical twists will encourage multiple listens.

The award-nominated (see “The Spanish Inquisition” in this issue for detail) “I’ll Kiss You In The Rain” has that same multiple-listenable quality. It features a Brazilian tempo sparked by Fletcher’s stylish piano augmented by rhythmic guitar and includes sweet chord, tempo and mood changes. Her vocal sets an emotionally evocative tone that brings out the happy.

Fletcher lures you into “Dangerous Beautiful” with an acoustic guitar intro then traps in a harmonic and intensity build that definitely sounds dangerous… but captivating. She uses a jazzier guitar to take you into a rather tastefully adult “In My Dreams.” She needs only an acoustic guitar to present the case her heart vs. her soul in “Unresolved.”

She is very pleased with the sound and

feel of the entire album and a newly discovered emotional vulnerability.

“Having the most amazing recording engineer and producer on the planet doesn’t hurt either,” she emphasized. “Marc Golde broke me, I don’t know how many times, in the studio over getting into the right emotional place on each song. He would accept nothing less. Who knew rocker guys could be so sensitive. He might kill me for repeating this, but regarding “What Now,” he says ‘this makes me want to just to go ice skating with Audrey Hepburn in Central Park.”

Had this reviewer thinking of lacing up the skates as well, but it’s a song that would work well with wine and a fire.

“And Marc’s board,” Fletcher said, “this is my first album on ‘that board’ - Vintage analog 30 channel API Aengus Model 73one of only two ever made. Play it through a set of old beastly analog speakers and the cellos will dance around the room while

-Dean Kaufert

Mayor of Neenah

I whisper the lyrics in your ear. It is sometimes unnervingly intimate.

You hear every spit crackle and every breath.

The only effect used was an authentic plate reverb. Marc had the vision for this work and executed it immaculately, as did the musicians and beautiful photographer Sofia of Sofia Imagery. You have to see the cover – wow! The album was mastered at Sterling Audio in New York which pushed the vision right over the top.”

The songs on this album will also sound great live, so it might be a good idea to catch Jamie Lyn Fletcher at one of her upcoming gigs and grab a CD there.

ENTERTAINMENT // THE SPANISH INQUISITION

Jamie Lyn Fletcher on the Rise

BY GEORGE HALAS The Inquisition and those in-the-know in northeast Wisconsin have known for some time that Jamie Lynn Fletcher is one of the best and most creative singermusician-composers.

But it’s not just Wisco – the world is now taking notice.

The Green Bay-based Fletcher was named by Music Resource Group (MRG) as one of five 14th Independent Music Awards nominees in the Jazz with Vocals Category for her song “I’ll Kiss You In The Rain” from her new album “My Desire of You.” IMA nominations in more than 80 categories spanned over the globe from nearly 30 countries. The eclectic mix of established and rising talent was culled from thousands of submissions. Winners will be determined by a panel of influential artist and industry judges such as Arturo Sandoval, Jane Monheit, Suzanne Vega, Sharon Jones, “Weird Al” Yankovic, Lila Downs, Judy Collins, Raul Midón, Amanda Palmer, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Shelby Lynne, Chris Wood & Oliver Wood (The Wood Brothers), Anthony DeCurtis (Rolling Stone), as well as numerous talent elites.

In addition to the winners selected by the Artist & Industry judges, music fans from around the world have until Friday, July 31, 2015 to vote for their favorite Nominees at The Vox Pop Jukebox, the fan-determined portion of The IMAs. “It is quite the honor and I’m humbled at the positive response. There certainly has been an increased demand for what I do since the nomination, and it has encouraged me to continue testing the album in a more international realm,” Fletcher said. “I will not rest on the laurels of the nomination, though. You are only as good as what you produce right now. It is such an honor to have this nomination, but an even bigger honor to have fans support their favorite independent music, uncontrolled by commerciality and written for qualityminded music lovers.”

This was not the first time she has been honored.

“The Fool,” a cut off her 2012 release, “Jamie,” made it as a finalist in the 2013 International John Lennon Songwriting R24 | SceneNewspaper.com | July 2015

Competition.

“It’s about making a mistake that most of us have made and I still get so many requests for it on my live shows as it resonates with the human experience,” she said.

Fletcher’s star has been rising in Europe as well as she has made several trips over the last couple years.

“The past two years I’ve been focusing on finding the right sound,” she said.

“It was impossible to do until I realized I had to start being true to myself and the music that I wanted to produce: something tender and gentle that cannot be pigeonholed because it is just ‘music.’ There was also a process of facing my biggest fears of loving and being loved. Sometimes you get run over by inspiration or a situation and you can’t run away any more. The new album is the beginning of letting go.”

Her European experiences serve as a musical travelogue.

“Europe is so vast,” Fletcher said “but you can drive all day and pass through several cultures and languages, unlike in the States. Irony and a few good friends have brought me to Austria on tour several times over the past few years. Vienna is so rich in history, architecture, music, and art; everyone loves live entertainment. Their tastes bend more towards the early American ‘traditional’ jazz music of pre-WWII and then jump into rockabilly, skipping over much of the Western world’s music from the 1930’s & 40’s as it was banned under Hitler. Poodle skirts and bobby socks are a rave in many clubs now, but there is a burgeoning niche who appreciates original music as well as the Great American Song Book, which is where my musical heart likes to hang out. It’s pure elegance.”

And the music scene in London?

“Amazingly rich in all styles and they are over-the-top with the funk. No shortage of groove,” she said. “Belgium leans more towards hard jazz and be-bop and France remains unchanged with their love for everything sultry and chanteuse. Oslo was a complete surprise as my second evening led me to a concert by Norway’s probably most-predominant pop artist, Bjørn Eidsvag. My brain had no idea what he was singing, but his music penetrates into a deep place in the soul, which attests to the universality of the music language. I was

blessed to later meet with him for lunch and an interview.”

“My third night I stumbled upon an American-style big band complete with the Andrew sisters,” she added. “For a selfproclaimed ‘amateur band’ (one is considered amateur if their main income is not in performing music), they nailed it. I spent the rest of my time exploring the scene and playing my butt off nearly every night in every style of music - regardless of spoken language. I was warmly accepted on stage in all situations and hope to return soon.”

The album proved to be somewhat of a metaphysical quest.

“This new album is completely different from anything I have done,” she said. “I met an incredible individual, Marc Golde, who turned my being inside out, challenged me in every way, forced me to address my deepest fears, and impacted me enough to finally stop running from myself in my most hidden self-destruction. The new album is an examination of the baby steps of the process...the hesitations, the

fears, the wants, the desires, the dark edges, the joyful light, and the hopes of maybe one day being able to fully trust and love.”

“Sometimes I listen to it and I don’t even recognize myself - did I write that?” she continued. “The music is extremely subtle and tender with multiple meanings, but hopefully something that everyone can relate to if they pay close attention. There were several times I had to question exactly who I was speaking to in the music - to my inspiring person, to God, or to myself - not to confuse any of them with each other, of course. This new work is an admission of vulnerability- something I once swore I would never let out. But there is no art without vulnerability.”

Fletcher will be back in town in July and August for multiple gigs in Green Bay, DePere and Door County. For a complete schedule - and while you’re there, you can download “The Fool” for free (along with a couple other older originals) – go to her website: jamielynnfletcher.com

ENTERTAINMENT // SUNSPLASH

Sister Bay celebrating new beach with Midwest Sunsplash Music Festival What happens when you pair $18 million in beach and park improvements, the crystal clear waters of Green Bay, and Reggae, Roots and Rock? The Midwest Sunsplash Music Festival in its new home in Sister Bay, Door County!

This August 7-8, the new Waterfront stage in Sister Bay hosts the first new major music festival to hit Door County in a decade. A line up of 9 musical acts, an eclectic mix of food and drink vendors, and sellers of groovy goods will bring a fresh vibe to the village and give people an opportunity to check out the newly completed beach and Waterfront Park.

“Midwest SunSplash is a fun and funky new venture for Sister Bay, that will ideally make people take another look at Sister Bay as a place to visit,” said Zeke Jackson, administrator for the Village of Sister Bay. “This event is an opportunity to showcase the new public waterfront in an active and vibrant way. Sister Bay is the place for young, active families to relax and make fun memories. “ Village President David Lienau confirmed Jackson’s sentiments, adding, “This will attract new visitors that haven’t been to Sister Bay or Door County, and give people who haven’t been in a while a reason to come back.”

The connection with Sister Bay and the Midwest Sunsplash (MWSS) event was a serendipitous one. Unity the Band played the first ever concert on the new Sister Bay Stage July 31, 2014. After the show, Unity lead singer Pita Katobalavu and Sister Bay Advancement Association Director Paige Funkhouser chatted about the new venue, music and SBAA’s desire to bring a music festival to the Village.

Thus, Midwest SunSplash found a new home.

MWSS began as a concert series by Katobalavu and his partner, Kay Halbrook. They were looking to grow the series, and for a new, better venue than previously used.

“Unity headlining the first concert at the new Waterfront Pavilion last summer packed the park,” Funkhouser said. “It was a perfect night: warm, beautiful sunset, people on boats listening to the jams. The energy of Pita’s band and their really positive messages created beautiful atmosphere on the waterfront. Unity drew a huge crowd with a fantastically diverse mix of ages and personalities. Zeke (Jackson) and I started talking with Pita and from there the festival idea grew into what people will experience Aug. 7 and 8.”

Funkhouser, Jackson, Katobalavu and R26 | SceneNewspaper.com | July 2015

Halbrook met in November over sushi at Bonsai in De Pere, and started planning this year’s event as a soft opening of the new waterfront. A Joint Effort Marketing grant from the Wisconsin Department of Tourism was written, and awarded to help promote the event.

The grant award is funding the traditional and social media marketing to attract visitors from around the Midwest to the event. The state’s tourism marketing arm was onboard with the goal of inviting younger people and more diverse visitors to the state and Door County.

August 8 will be an art and music-filled day on the water in Sister Bay. Sister Bay Advancement Association will also host the 13th annual Door County Festival of Fine Arts in Waterfront Park on the north side of the Sister Bay Village Hall. This festival showcases Door County fine artists, who sell, and demonstrate their craft throughout the day, 10 - 5 p.m.

“By pairing these two events, people attending Midwest SunSplash can spend their day perusing fine art at the Door County Festival of Fine Arts, and learning how artists create,” Funkhouser explained. “DCFA will also have live music throughout the day to put people in the mood for MWSS. Door County’s successful art scene will help draw people to MWSS, and people who have come for the new music will get to experience the vibrant art scene in Door County.”

Katobalavu handpicked the entertainment to represent diverse music styles, with the idea to appeal to the usual Door County crowds, with aspiration to attract new visitors who may not have been to the peninsula.

“My band has played all over in Door County, at Fishstock and other events for many years, and I love the warm welcomes we receive,” Katobalavu said. “I wanted to make sure we brought up great musicians that will entertain the local people who are exposed to lots of great talent all the time. I also chose bands for their geographic location and the size of their fan base. The bands will invite their fans to come up to Door County and hear their favorite band in a new location. Did we mention you’ll be able to swim while listening to the music?”

The festival kicks off Friday, August 7 at 4 p.m. with three bands playing on the Waterfront Stage until 9 p.m. Saturday’s line up features six bands playing from 2 p.m. until Continue on Page R28

ENTERTAINMENT // SUNSPLASH Continued from Page R26 Midnight.

Honey & the 45’s kicked off their 2015 touring season by opening for Smash Mouth in North Carolina, and are including Midwest Sunsplash in their busy schedule. Katobalavu first connected with them through a fan in Rockford, and in his search for unique acts for MWSS, he thought they really stood out.

“Their folk/blues/funk combo is really kick-ass,” saaid Katobalavu. “Having two women musicians out front isn’t something you see too often!”

Lead singer/songwriter and guitarist Kristina Cottone shares the stage with Kim Kozel, who sings and plays saxophone and violin in this Chicago-based group. Kottone and Kozel are joined by lead guitarist Jon Gould, Sean Tatum on bass, and drummer Jarad Kleinstein. Among their credentials is a Best Blues/Jazz Band honor in 2014 from the Chicago Independent Music Awards. They recently released their second album “MAD.” They will kick off Saturday’s line up at 2 p.m. on the Sister Bay Stage.

Natty Nation will draw their fans from Madison and southern Wisconsin to Door County, with the lure of a great Friday night headliner show at MWSS. Traditionally, Sunsplash festivals are known for the Reggae message of peace, love and unity, and Natty Nation

has been touring and playing those positive vibrations since 1995. A steady back up band for such legends as Lee “Scratch” Perry and Chaka Demus & Pliers, they have a tight dubbased sound that attracts reggae purists as well as seekers of roots-rock-reggae.

Other bands performing during the two day event include: Katobalavu’s Unity the Band, Whiskey of the Damned, Recalcitrant, Big Wig Mechanics, Wifee & the Huzz Band, and Earth to Clark.

For a full festival experience, camping is available for festival goers at the Sister Bay Sports Complex, with a separate area for tents and RVs. Starting at 9 p.m. Friday night,

MWSS ticket holders will be treated to an acoustic “after-hours” campfire music jam at the camping area hosted by Door County’s own Mary Jane Gang.

“Camping really makes the festival by adding a communal setting for people to share and chill during and after MWSS. The Village of Sister Bay has helped make this happen, and they are building a bonfire for Friday night’s acoustic jam, and will shoot off fireworks Friday night,” said Funkhouser.

To create a festival atmosphere, MWSS is looking for food and drink vendors, and arts and crafts vendors, that will fit with the Reggae-Roots-Rock vibe.

“We would love to bring locally sourced foods and drinks that include healthy options mixed in with summer treats to our festival, and that has been the focus of our search for unique vendors,” festival manager Kay Halbrook said. “The arts and crafts vendors will be distinctly different than the artists showcased in the Door County Festival of Fine Arts.

We have a multi-cultural focus, with people sharing ethnic rituals like the Fijian Kava Ceremony and Henna Tattoo Artists, along with people selling natural and peace-building goods and native arts.”

The musical lineup for the day will take the stage on the Sister Bay Waterfront Stage, except Friday night after 9 p.m.: Midwest SunSplash Music Festival is Friday from 4-9 p.m. at the Sister Bay Stage in Waterfront Park, 10693 North Bay Shore Drive, Highway 42, Sister Bay. Friday’s entertainment will move to the nearby Sister Bay Sports Complex (2155 Autumn Court) from 9 p.m. – midnight. Saturday, the festival grounds open at noon with music from 2 p.m. to midnight at the Sister Bay Stage in Waterfront Park.

Tickets are $30 for General Admission and $10 per person for camping. Tickets are available online at www.midwestsunsplash.com and at the door the day of the event. Children 10 and under are free.

ENTERTAINMENT // ROCK USA

Rock USA’s 5th Anniversary!

BY JANE SPIETZ It’s hard to believe that the world class Rock USA festival is about to recognize its 5th anniversary! Its mission still applies today: “To deliver the maximum Rock Festival experience while still offering a very affordable ticket. To listen to what the fans want and cater to their experience in the best way we can. ...and finally to deliver a kick-ass line up year in, and year out.”

This year’s line up will be no exception to the rule, with headliners Alice Cooper, Def Leppard, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Judas Priest, Breaking Benjamin, Avenged Sevenfold and many great supporting acts scheduled to perform.

I touched base with Rock USA promoter Dan Liebhauser recently to get the scoop on this year’s event.

Jane Spietz: Rock USA is about to celebrate its 5th anniversary! How has this world class event evolved over the past 5 years?

Dan Liebhauser: Five years ago Rock USA kicked off its first year with KISS, and attendance hit about 70,000. Last year the attendance had grown to about 100,000.

JS: What type of feedback have you been getting from fans?

DL: Looks like the rock fans approve of what we’re trying to do. Our goal is to deliver as broad a mix of rock entertainment as possible. In fact, our motto is: Sold Rock. No Limits.

JS: Tell us about the exciting line up for this year’s event. You have forecast that it will be a monster!

DL: Onstage for Rock USA’s 5th year is Judas Priest, Avenged Sevenfold, Def Lep-

WHAT: Rock USA 2015 WHERE: Ford Festival Park, Oshkosh WI WHEN, COST & INFO: July 15 – 18, 2015 $69 through 7/3/15, $79 at the gate All 4 days for $129 through 7/3/15, $159 at the gate www.rockusaoshkosh.com pard, Alice Cooper, Breaking Benjamin, Lynyrd Skynyrd and enough power acts to give us budget nightmares of $2 million dollars in talent.

JS: The ‘Who Do You Want?’ poll on the Rock USA website provides fans with the ability to state their preferences about whom they would like to see perform.

How much is their input taken into account when acts are being considered?

DL: The very reason for the ‘Who Do You Want?’ feature is to allow us to tap into the pulse of our rock fans. This is probably the most important piece of info we use in buying out talent.

JS: Looking to the future, what are your hopes for Rock USA in the next five years?

DL: Big things happening for 2016!

We plan on spending an additional $300,000 on talent and we want our rock fans to follow us on social media as we roll out some really exciting changes in the next coming months for Rock USA 2016.

JS: Thanks, Dan. Looking forward to another great event!
