Wentzel Brothers update 10-25-24

What is new with us?

   Since our last update we have played a couple shows and gathered up some more gear to our live performance! 

We all have been working really hard at our jobs and time has been flying,

Where did we play last?

The last gig we played was at Fozzies in Spring Hill. 

That was a really fun time!  

It was Jacob’s birthday as well and he had a really good time.

He ran out in the crowd to play his solo and had a woman leave a kiss mark on his arm! 

Very interesting gig.

Where are we playing next?

This weekend is going to be jam packed with two gigs!

We are playing Saturday at Ember’s Tavern and Grille, and we are playing Sunday for a fundraiser to raise some money for the flood victims. 

So if you are wanting to help support them then you should come on out to that.

We are going to be playing at The Rebel in Columbia Tn. 

The whole show will go from noon to 8pm.

We are closing at 7:20-8pm.

Thank you so much for all of your support!

See you next time!

Band Update 9-30-24

What is new with us?

Hello everyone! I hope everything is going good with you all!

We are currently working on a couple of projects and preparing for our upcoming gig this week. 

The last gig we played was a couple weeks ago and we had a blast!

Here is what is new with us.

What we are working on

    We all have our own things going at this point. 

Issac is currently working on restoring his house. 

Ivan just had his SECOND kid!

Jacob has been doing a lot of programming  and research for upgrading our live set up.

We all have a lot going on right now and we appreciate everyone being so supportive of us during this time!

Where did we play last?

    Our last gig was at Ember’s Tavern in Columbia, Tennessee.

We had a great time!

We went on around 9pm. There was a football game going on and we were uncertain to start playing while it was happening, but they went ahead and told us to start.

We played until midnight and then tore down our sound system and left.

The crowd was having an Amazing time! So much dancing!

Where are we playing next?

Our next gig is at The Moose Lodge in Shelbyville, Tn.  

It is on Saturday we start at 8 and play until midnight.

If you are interested in checking us out, and you live in Shelbyville, then come on down!

What are we all working on right now?

Issac has been working hard spending long hours on his house. I can’t begin to explain everything he’s working on. It’s pretty overwhelming to say the least!

Ivan and Maddie had little Margaret Josephine last week and have been getting the house prepared for her to live in. She’s so adorable!

Jacob has been doing Jacob things. Constantly researching and learning new things that will be good for the band. Most of the stuff he’s learning is very hard to grasp!

Thank you so much for always supporting us with our music.

You make this all possible for us.

Keep on rocking!

Update 8-25-24 

Played a Birthday party!

What is up everybody? We had a pretty fun time this weekend!

We played Michael Hargrove’s birthday party and that was pretty interesting!

He turned 49 on Saturday and had a blast!

Cops came out for noise!!

While we were playing we had the cops show up to investigate a loud sound, but saw us playing and told us that we were good to continue rocking out!

That’s rock n roll!

We worked on the bus Sunday!

We got a little bit done on the bus Sunday. 

Dan helped us out by welding a metal frame support on the inside of the bus and then we found out that the bus was leaking oil everywhere, so we replaced the oil filter as well.

It feels good to be moving forward on the bus!

Where are we playing this weekend?

We have one show at Hank’s honky tonk in Murfreesboro Tn on Saturday.

We will go on around 9 o'clock( not 8 o'clock).

Where did we play Saturday?

We also played at Shelbyville Moose Lodge on Saturday, also known as the loyal order of the moose. 

The moose lodge is a special place for the Wentzel Brothers because it’s one of the places where we got our start.

Wentzel Brothers Live

Ember’s Tavern and grille (08-03-24)

    What is going on everybody? We just finished playing a gig at Ember’s Bar and Grille in Columbia, Tennessee. 

We had an absolute blast playing there! It has turned into our favorite place to play at in Columbia!

This was the first time that we have played here and it was a great time and had good food and some really supportive people.

Time To Rock n roll!

We got there around 5:00 and starting setting up our equipment.

Our set time was 8-11pm. 

We pulled the truck around the back and unloaded from there.

You guys rock!

   We had a great crowd. The place was packed! Everyone that came out were so supportive and rocked out with us. 

I love seeing people who watch us the whole time, we really appreciate it. 

You guys rock!

Where are we playing next?

We do not have any gigs this weekend, but our next gig is at Fozzy’s in Spring Hill, Tn on the 16th and the moose lodge in Shelbyville, Tn on the 17th.

We are going to release a live video of one of our originals from this show, so be on the lookout for that!

We appreciate how supportive you guys are of us and we look forward to connecting with you guys next weekend!

Keep on rocking!

Where did we play this weekend?

 What is going on guys?  We played at Stoner’s bar and grill in Indiana this weekend.

This is a fun venue that has good people serving you food and drinks. 

The last time we played here was a little over a year ago.

We took the bus!

 We went as a group to the gig. It was a lot better than our last trip because we have more AC and airflow in our bus than the truck.(Which we took last time! That was a hot one!)

We bought our bus off of Facebook marketplace, and it has some problems.

Before we took it out we cleaned up the outside and some of the inside. 

We have couches set up in it for comfortable riding. 

We pulled the speakers out of it and are going to replace them.

We've replaced the AC hose in it, Which was ridiculously long like 25 feet! It cost like 1000$!

We got into some heavy traffic on the way.

There were so many people on the road! 

It was kind of a stressful situation.

What's that smell?

    About an hour or so into our journey we had a rancid smell come up into the bus.

We thought that possibly it was just us passing by something from outside, but the smell lingered the whole trip.

So we assume we had a mouse frying on the manifold or something. 

Then out of nowhere, we had our voltage meter on the bus shoot up and our windshield wiper fluid shot out when we pushed on the gas pedal. 

It turns out that it ended up being a battery issue and not a mouse causing the smell.

We ended up making it to a gas station to pick up some tools so we could replace the battery if it goes bad again.

We unhooked it and ran off of the alternator until we got to the venue.

It's a wedding!

   When we got to the venue the owner was having his wedding ceremony! 

We got to be a part of it. That was really nice of him to let us be a part of it. 

They had multiple dances and lots of fun and good food!

We went on around 8:00pm and rocked the house until 11.

Cabin for the night?

    So since our bus was having issues, we had our parents staying the night up there to support us and they allowed us to stay the night at their cabin. 

Jacob and Issac slept on the bunk beds and Ivan slept on the bed beside us. 

Every time Issac would toss and turn, the bed would squeak. It was a fun time.

We got up around 6am to head on back home.

When we got home the bus ended up dying as we were backing in the driveway.

WOW! 

That was a miracle that it didn't die on the interstate.

Where are we playing next?

     Our next gig we are playing at is at Embers Tavern in Columbia Tn. We go on around 8pm to 11pm.

Thank you so much for supporting us always!

Keep on Rocking!
