  • To raise some funds for the Hispanic ministries provided here at St Willebrord
Bands We have several bands scheduled.

1 until 1:45pm - The Gardeners - DePere

We're a group of teenage dudes from De Pere, WI. Greg, and John, our drummer, started the band about midsummer '05. since then they added Jesse, Greg's best friend and guitarist, and Jimmy, our schwasomely cool alaskan bassist. Up until recently, all we did was play covers of songs by bands like Green Day, Blink 182, Weezer, etc. But Greg and Jesse started writin their own stuff, and now thats really all we play. We spend most of our time working on those, but still throw in the occasional cover. We're mainly a punk band. But our stuff varies a lot. We got a little bit of everything. So yea. thats about it for now. See y'all later.

We had them come last year ... but this year, we've extended their time slot because they are just so fun to watch!

 

4:15-5pm - 1rst Degree Band 
Representing St Al's Church - Kaukauna 

The band started out as a three piece band consisting of John, Max and founding lead singer Logan Meyerhopher.  One of the songs that we still play today, "Appreciate" was written by Logan.  We found our first drummer, Jake Schuh, and the band was what we thought, complete.  Logan decided to hand the mic over to Billy, but still remains to be good friends with the band today.  After playing about three gigs, Jake decided to hand the drum sticks over to Drey. Meanwhile, Cody Timmers joined the band as alternating lead and rhythm guitarist which is the make up of the band today.
