Appreciation Dinner

Wisconsin Dells, WI - Monday, July 14th, 2014

176 keys fun pianos played at our recent event of about 250. They were very professional, on time, courteous, and did a great job reading and involving our guests. I was amazed at how they got even the most serious folks to loosen up for a couple of hours and have a great time. I could not have been more pleased in the way the players handled our event and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone in need of corporate entertainment. We have had bands, magicians, hypnotists, ventriloquists, mentalists, you name it but this was by far the best according to our guests.

Annual Dinner

River Falls, WI - Saturday, February 8th, 2014

We had a FABULOUS time on Saturday night, the players were absolutely fantastic and made the night so enjoyable! In large group settings it’s sometimes hard to have entertainment that everyone truly enjoys and has fun with, and of course you’re going to have a few that would’ve preferred something a little more low-key or so – but I tell you what, the majority of our group fell in love with Fun Pianos Dueling Pianos! The guys made it so fun, got the audience involved, we had a ton of laughs at and with our co-workers, it was great.

Police Retirement Party

Lake Geneva, WI - Thursday, August 22nd, 2013

THEY WERE AMAZING!!! I told my husband we need to think of another reason for a party to have you back!! Thank you again!

Fundraiser

Wausau, WI - Friday, March 1st, 2013

176 Keys is fantastic! The crowd loves them and they represented our organization fundraiser well. We have had 176 Keys entertain at our fundraiser two (2) years in a row and we will definitely be looking to book them for year three (3). Thank you 176 Keys for providing a fantastic evening of entertainment, laughs and fun! This was the second 176 Keys event my husband and I attended. We had SUCH a blast at both events! The piano players are very good at kicking off a fun filled evening, and keeping the energy level high all night. We are always sad when the night comes to an end!

Private Party

Burlington, WI - Saturday, February 9th, 2013

The night was a great success! Thank you to the players for getting the employees involved and engaged! I have only heard great things about Saturday night and how much fun it was for everyone! Thank you to all!

Private Event

Elkhart, WI - Saturday, November 10th, 2012

Thank you so very much for the performers that you sent Saturday night. The two guys were AMAZING! In front of a difficult group, they pulled off a miracle. The entire crowd was engaged and HAPPY! It was truly an awe inspiring feat. Please give them our congratulations and appreciation for a job well done. We will make sure to refer you to any group that is looking for TERRIFIC event entertainment. Thanks again!

Wedding

La Crosse, WI - Saturday, October 13th, 2012

Oh my God. It was amazing. Just wanted to touch base quickly and tell you that 100% of our guests (225 of them to be exact) said it was the BEST wedding they’ve ever been too. Yesterday, Oct 13th 2012, our son was married in LaCrosse WI. When he told us a month ago that the entertainment was dueling pianos we were curious as we had never heard of such a thing. Well, you need to know that the players did an excellent performance!! This is something we will tell all our co-workers about and have nothing but praise for this entertainment. Keep up the great work.Thanks for all your guys’ hard work!

Arnold and O’Sheridan Event

Johnson Creek, WI - Saturday, December 15th, 2007

The party Saturday was great, even with the snowy weather. I have received a couple compliments already on people having a wonderful time. You guys were great and very easy to work with, you basically took care of everything for me and that is much appreciated because I spent a lot of time getting everything else together that was needed for the night.

Hoffman Holiday Party

Appleton, WI - Friday, December 15th, 2006

“The dueling pianos were great. They allowed everyone to get involved. They really know their songs and did a great job on the pianos. Thank you. We had a great time.” Marketing Coordinator jneuber@hoffman.net

Stadium View Sports Bar

Green Bay, WI - Saturday, December 2nd, 2006

“… I heard great things from both the staff and friends… The owners and staff at the Stadium View are looking forward to you coming back…

Toyota Regional Conference

Kohler, WI - Wednesday, July 12th, 2006

Our event called for something different than the typical convention entertainment and 176 keys Dueling Pianos was an obvious choice. They were very attentive to our needs and requests before and during the event. The feedback was positive and I’d recommend them for anybody wanting something that has more crowd engagement than a DJ or band. Jeff_Daniels@Toyota.com

FiServe Corporate Party

Brookfield, WI - Thursday, October 6th, 2005

Hey Sam, I am doing great… thanks again for a wonderful show. Everyone had a great time – had a lot of compliments the next day!!!!!

Fun Pianos duels out of summer into fall

Different areas of the country have different trends, something we’ve noticed in 14+ years of serving the Fun Pianos! by 176 Keys Dueling Pianos show throughout the entire country.

One things that is consistent everywhere, from Phoenix to Nebraska to Illinois, Florida and everywhere else is that summers are slower than the rest of the year. This is not to say we have nothing to do: weddings, county fairs, and other community events happen every week. But while folks in Phoenix want to get out of the sweltering heat, People in Iowa and Minnesota want to hit the water, North Dakota friends want to get together while they have a few weeks of sun…the events we play in the summer are generally the community and family minded events of weddings and festivals.

With fall comes the return of college events (including Texas and South Dakota in a couple weeks), corporate engagements and more of the full list of events we’ve been playing for well over 10 years.

This weekend, we’re spreading our roster to Tucson, Chadron Nebraska, Beatrice Nebraska, Sedalia Missouri, and Reinbeck Iowa. After more shows in Canton Illinois and Rough Kentucky next week, we have a very busy week, with shows every day but Wednesday in Cincinnati, Rapid City, Kearney, Bloomington Indiana, Okoboji Iowa, west Texas, Madison Wisconsin and Woodland Hills (north of Los Angeles and Hollywood). With a small break when we have just one holiday weekend show (a wedding party in Plymouth Nebraska, outside of Lincoln), we’re back at it the next week, hitting Colorado, Kansas, Williston North Dakota and Omaha.

Summer is coming to close, and the “real new year” is about to begin: School, Fall, Football…and Fun Pianos!

Playing musical chairs….. Literally.

Assigning players isn’t done randomly. In fact, when you book a show, most of the time the player closest to you is the one assigned to your event…. but that isn’t ALWAYS the case. Here at Fun Pianos, we are often asked how we decide which dueling piano players will be assigned to do each show. Although we have offices in Omaha Nebraska, Phoenix Arizona and Tampa, Florida, we have players from all over the United States who will go anywhere to do shows. It is well known that Sam is from Detroit but has been living in Seward Nebraska for some time now. Jefrey currently resides in Phoenix, Arizona, Steven lives in Los Angeles, California, and some players from Michigan as well as other states. Although Tyler is originally from the Tulsa, Oklahoma area, he lives in Tampa, Florida now along with Chris and their piano playing neighbor Keith has a place in Orlando. Katy is a Chicago girl, Steve lives in Houston, Texas and Gary just moved to Las Vegas, Nevada. With all of these players all over the place, it would seem that it would be difficult to do a show in a place like Manhattan, Kansas or Fargo, North Dakota – but Fun Pianos will go anywhere! We have been known to do shows in places as small as Grafton, NE (pop. 122) and as far away as Portland, Maine San Diego, California, Miami, Florida and Seattle, Washington. So the players who get assigned to do these shows are often chosen by their proximity to another event. If we were to do a show in Denver, Colorado – we might have a team of players come from Kansas, Utah, Wyoming, New Mexico, Iowa, or even North Dakota or South Dakota (if that is where a previous show was). For instance, if a team were to find themselves in Des Moines, Iowa on one night, they could easily do a show in Ottumwa, Iowa the next night and then bring dueling pianos to Minneapolis, St. Paul or Milwaukee on the following night. So Fun Pianos takes a lot into consideration when choosing which piano players are going to do which shows. If you are considering having Dueling Pianos at your next event feel free to contact us at any time.
