Billy McGlaughlin Dinner/Concert...a Rousing Success!!!

We'll add a few more pictures as I get them...but what a wonderful event...having guitarist/performer and song writer Billy McLaughlin here at the Big Easel performing for an intimate, personal and dare I say very fortunate those advanced reservation ticket holders.  A high bar and exciting precedence was set for our NE Wisconsin area, the arts are showing their colors...thriving, growing...

Billy first entertained, and spoke some amazing encouraging words, insightful truths about not giving up, going after your dreams...sharing his rebirth from Focal Dystonia...with the high school student body of both Wabeno and Laona High School.  You know such an event was amazing when the students thereafter thank organizers for bringing in and putting together such an assembly!

 Then patrons of the Big Easel Bistro and Gallery were blessed with two long sets, Billy taking us all on an aesthetic journey in sound and mood.  I took video of one of my favorite of Billy's songs, "Helms Place"...and here for recapturing the joy of those that attended, and those wondering what you missed is that video.  It is a wide panoramic video...and by clicking to see it on YouTube, you will see it all...an even find you are able to enlarge it full screen.  Enjoy...enjoy...enjoy!



Congratulations to the artists, the staff...Tim and Connie Freisen, and premo Chef Michael Konitzer for a most memorable experience!!!!
