MAY 3, 2008       
When playing at Cali's, our day starts out rather early as we,
have to set up early in the afternoon, do our sound check by
5p.m. and then come back by 8p.m. to get ready for our show.
Everything went smooth as Roadwarriors, had us mixed and
ready to go.
Our show went rather well and we had our usual following for
Cali's, of over 100 people. We knew just about the whole room.
Thus, we were excited to play for our family, friends and every
body else who was there.
We opened up with about four songs in a row just like clockwork.
The band was pumped.
The new songs sounded good and people were dancing early.
It got more crowded as the night went on.
And we just kept rockin' and entertaining till 1a.m.
Thanks to all especially who traveled long distances.
And to all who came out that night.
Also, to Louie, at ACA Entertainment and Debbie, at the Midway,
who made it happen.
Dave, our drummer will be having shoulder surgery this month
so we'll be off till about August.
But we'll be back with vengeance and ready to play.
Keep checking our schedule because we have big plans coming.

APRIL 19, 2008
As opposed to our Feb. gig here the weather was sensational.
I hate to sound like a broken record but we packed the place.
Our loyal following never lets us down and Sat. night was no
exception.
Thank you all.
Two highlights of the evening were "The Jam" belting out the
jam song after pouring down what he  believed was a worlds
record of chugging. His challenge wasn't met.
The other hightlight was Fred, gracing our stage with a rousing
vocal of Johnny B. Goode with Barb. The equipment still works.
Great job Fred!
The band was pumped just waiting to play our new tunes and we
were very satified with how they came out.
Quite a variety  adding Carrie Underwood, Eric Clapton, Aerosmith,
Bryan Adams and probably another one that I can't remember now.
We moved Mustang Sally, towards the end and that worked great.
See ya at the next show coming up May 3rd.

Feb. 9, 2008
The weather started out bad with the snow but stopped before we
played so we ended up with our usual big crowd. Sorry to those
who ended up standing all night.
We can't thank you enough for braving the elements to party with
the band.
Lately, we've been showing that we do know how to entertain an
audience. Not just by playing the music but having stage presence
as well. The band has come a long way from it's infancy.
Thanks to The Starting Gate for having us back AGAIN.
Was that The Jam singing the first verse of "The Jam Song"?
Not bad!
And I think Barb, wanted to make up for last time when she was
sick there. She was all over the stage Sat. night having fun as she
likes to do.
Pictures will be forthcoming but meanwhile see us "live" from
Sat. night at the bottom of this page.

THE BAR. THAT'S THE SONG WRITTEN BY OUR KEYBOARD PLAYER, TOM.
WE WANT TO THANK THE OWNER AND FRIENDLY EMPLOYEES FOR ALL THEIR
HELP IN MAKING OUR SHOW GO OFF WITHOUT A HITCH. MY ONLY REGRET

CALI'S LOUNGE INSIDE THE BEST WESTERN MIDWAY HOTEL......JAN. 27, 2007

IT WAS A BLAST!!!


OUR PLACE.....JAN. 6, 2007
WELL, THE EVENING STARTED OUT A LITTLE DIFFERENT FOR US LAST NIGHT.
WE KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE ROUGH COMING IN BECAUSE GREG , HAD BEEN
SICK ALL WEEK AND DIDN'T HAVE MUCH OF A VOICE AS HE IS ONE OF THE
MAIN VOCALISTS IN THE BAND. SO MATT, THE MASTER HE IS PRINTED OUT
OUR SETS WITH CHANGES ON IT DESCRIBING HOW IF THEY OTHER MEMBERS
CONTRIBUTE TO THE VOCALS MORE THAT WE WILL SOUND OKAY. THAT MEANS
BRIAN, WHO USUALLY DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A MIC IN FRONT OF HIM, WOULD
HAVE TO BE SINGING ALSO. AS FOR ME, THEY KNOW BETTER. SO WITH THAT
THE OTHER JEFF AND BARB, SANG THINGS THAT THEY HAVE NEVER DONE
BEFORE. AND WITH GREAT PROFESSIONALISM, I'D HAVE TO SAY. THEY CAME
THROUGH WITH FLYING COLORS. ANOTHER ADDITION WAS TO PLAY LA GRANGE
WHICH MATT HEARD SOME OF THE BAND JAMMING ON THIS PAST WEDNESDAY,
AT REHEARSAL WITHOUT GREG, BUT LAST NIGHT GREG PLAYED IT WITH THE
GREATEST OF EASE. AND IT SOUNDED AWESOME. NOTE THAT IT'S NOT ONE OF
MY FAVORITES. WE UNLEASHED "WHAT I LIKE ABOUT YOU", A WORLDWIDE
REQUEST WITH TONY , ON HARMONICA AND WE REALLY ROCKED TO EVERYONE'S
LIKING. GREG, COULDN'T JUST SIT BACK SO HE SLOWLY ADDED SOME HARMONIES
TO FILL THINGS OUT ALTHOUGH I DON'T KNOW IF HIS VOICE CARRIED SEEING
AS THOUGH HE COULD BARELY TALK. BUT IT DOESN'T END HERE, I'M SORRY TO
SAY BECAUSE DAVE WAS SICK AT PRACTICE ON WEDNESDAY, AND HE COULDN'T
TALK EITHER. SO WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT FROM HIM LAST NIGHT
BUT A LITTLE CHEST CONGESTION COULDN'T KEEP DOWN OUR FIREMAN. AS
MIKE, THE SOUNDMAN FROM THE BRITINS, PUT WHILE WATCHING US, DAVE WAS
SOLID AS A ROCK WITH THE BEAT. NOTE THAT THIS WAS HIS THIRD GIG WITH
US. UNFORTUNATELY, WE COULDN'T GIVE DAVE, A MIC LAST NIGHT BECAUSE OF
HIS CONDITION. HE HAD NO VOICE. THEREFORE, WE HAD TO ELIMINATE THE
DYNAMIC DUO DAVE AND GREG, SINGING ABOUT SAVING A HORSE AND RIDING
A COWBOY (WHAT?). ENOUGH ABOUT THE BAND. THE CROWD WAS AWESOME.
WE KEPT 'EM TILL THE END AND WE MET SOME NEW FANS. OUR LOYALS WERE
THERE. THANKS TO AL AND LINDA AND KATHY, JOHN AND LYNN C. , GOOD TO
SEE YOU BOTH AGAIN AND THANKS FOR BRINGING  DAVE AND DEB, FROM
WALDO, WITH YOU. DALE AND SHIRLEY, ARE BACK FROM FLORIDA AND MADE
AN APPEARANCE BRINGING SOME FRIENDS. A BIG THANKS GOES OUT TO ONE
OF OUR FIRST FOLLOWERS, KAREN, JULIE, KELLY AND DIANA. SORRY YOU
COULDN'T GET THERE EARLY ENOUGH FOR A BETTER SEAT BUT YOU WERE
TROOPERS AND STAYED IN BACK TILL SOMEONE FINALLY LEFT TOWARDS THE
END. THANKS FOR HANGING IN THERE AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU. CRYSTAL,
ALSO WAS CELEBRATING HER BIRTHDAY AND DAVE ALSO. SO I GUESS THE BAND
CAN SING HAPPY BIRTHDAY! THE REST IF THE BAND HAD PEOPLE THEY KNEW
THERE BUT I DON'T KNOW THEM EXCEPT FOR TONY, MENTIONING AL AND HIS
DAUGHTER BEING THERE. THANKS TO OUR PLACE, FOR HAVING US AGAIN FOR
OUR THIRD TIME. WE'RE GOING TO RECOOPERATE NOW AND COME TO CALI'S
LOUNGE , INSIDE THE MIDWAY HOTEL IN BROOKFIELD ON JAN. 27TH WITH
SOME NEW STUFF FOR YOU SO HOPEFULLY YOU CAN ALL MAKE IT  TO A REALLY
CLASSY VENUE. IT SHOULD BE FUN AS WE GET CLOSER TO HOME FOR THIS ONE.
LASTLY, THANKS TO MATT, AND ROAD WARRIORS FOR SOME GREAT LIGHTS AND
SOUND AGAIN. YOU GUYS ALWAYS DO A GREAT JOB.
BACK TO FOOTBALL.....

UNCLE JOHNNY'S......DEC. 16
SORRY I'M LATE ON THIS . I WAS UNDER THE WEATHER AND FORGOT.
WE AGAIN PACKED UNCLE JOHNNY'S AND HAD A GREAT TIME AS USUAL.
WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO GOING BACK IN 2007.
THANKS TO ALL THE OLD FACES WHO ALWAYS COME OUT TO SUPPORT
US AND THANKS TO THE NEW FACES WHO GAVE US SOME VERY NICE
COMPLIMENTS. WE HOPE TO SEE YOU AT ALL OUR GIGS.
WE PLAYED OUR NEW SONGS AND THEY WENT OVER WELL SO WITH OUR
NEW DRUMMER IN PLACE, WE'RE HEADING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
THE BAND CERTAINLY IS GETTING TIGHTER AND WAS THAT OUR DRUMMER
SINGING ON SAVE A HORSE, RIDE A COWBOY???
MORE VOCALS (YEAH!) AND MORE TO COME..............
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE AND WE'LL SEE YOU ON  SAT. JAN. 6 AT
OUR PLACE, IN WEST BEND.

OUR PLACE......DEC. 2, 2006
Our second appearance at OUR PLACE in West Bend, this past Sat. night.
The bar was full of people who seemed to take to our new songs like a bee takes
to honey. We came out aggressively playing three songs in a row and then sprung
R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A. on an already messmerized crowd. Hey! there were dancers
on the floor now. Cool!
Later, we gave Barb, the mike to rock out with a little Jailhouse Rock, which also
seemed to win 'em over along with our new version of Proud Mary, of which we now
changed to the Ike & Tina Turner version which starts out easy but ends up rough.
Nice job Barb!
Later we unleashed our new drummer, Dave, on a vocal with our bass player, Greg,
as they chanted about saving a horse and roding a cowboy for ya' all.
What in the heck was that???
Jeff, was amazing as usual on guitar. Ya gotta see this guy play. A-yi-yi-yi-yi!!!
Brian and Tony, were out in the crowd doing that entertaining thing they do.
And Tom held down the keyboard parts while yours truly coughed his guts out while
trying to play with a G-string that kept going out of tune and no batteries that worked
for the tuner.
It was a cold night but we thank those who came out such as our BIG TIME regulars
Big Al and Marijane, all the way from the south side of Milwaukee. Linda showed up
again and seemed to like our new dance sound. And lo and behold, Mark and Kathy
came out for the first time and vowed to see us when we return in January.
Norb and Julie, from Sussex made the trip also. They make most shows as well.
Thanks!
The rest of the band had people out that they knew but I haven't learned everybody's names
yet but we certainly thank you guys and gals also.
Lastly, a big thanks to Matt, and Jay of Road Warriors, for making us look and sound good.
So I guess it was a good night.
Thanks to OUR PLACE for having us again.


SUSSEX PLACE SPORTS BAR........NOV. 4, 2006
Another great night for Doubletake, as we played at Sussex Place Sports Bar, last night
for the first time. As usual our following showed up from all parts of the area.
Myke and Debi(the dancers) came all the way from South Milwaukee, to finally hear us.
You  both can really gymnastic dance. Al and Mary Jane, have been there from the
beginning with us making most gigs bringing Tom and Karen, once again with them.
Curt and some his band members came out as well as Larry and Carolyn. Steve C. made
a late guest appearance all the way from the north side of Milwaukee. Chuck and Barb
make most shows and were there last night. Carol, Linda and Jeannie were there to
support their husbands(I think they had a good time as well). We met our new drummer's
wife and their daughter for the first time and with them came a large group of people
to hear Dave, play his first gig with us. Laura, was a newby cellebrating her Halloween
birthday. Unfortunately, I didn't meet all of Dave's friends and family except for Fred,
whom I used to sell records to years ago. But we're certainly glad you came out to
party with us and hopefully we'll see you at all our performances. Pictures can be seen
on the pictures link on the main page and later on our official website:
www.doubletaketheband.com
Thanks to Roadwarrior Productions for the super lights.
And to Matt, who always makes us sound good.
Lastly, thanks to the great bartenders and to the owners who know how to treat a band.

HEY ALL FAITHFUL, WE  HAD A BLAST PLAYING FOR YOU AT  J&B'S PUB & GRILL FOR THE BENEFIT LAST SATURDAY NIGHT. THE BAND WAS SO HAPPY TO TRY OUR NEW TUNES IN FRONT OF AN AUDIENCE. THE REACTION WAS OVERWHELMING I MUST SAY.
THANKS TO ALL OF YOU WHO CAME OUT. I THINK WE EVEN GAINED SOME NEW FANS.
AS A SPECIAL REWARD, I PUT  A SONG ON THIS PAGE FOR EVERYBODY TO HEAR. IT WAS OUR
THIRD REHEARSAL WITH OUR NEWEST MEMBER, BARB. HOPE YOU ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS WE ENJOY PLAYING IT. YOU SHOULD BE HEARING IT RIGHT NOW.
THANKS.
TOM, TONY, GREG, GARY, DAN, BRIAN, BARB & MATT(SOUND)  x
