Bands in Wisconsin

[TechnicolorTaco]

Hey everyone,
I just started a job half way across the country in the frozen tundra known as Green Bay. I was wondering if there are any bands in the area that I should be aware of. I know that I will have to make the trip to Milwaukee for most of the bigger shows...

Thanks for any help!

While I don't know of many bands, I do know that I end up at shows either at the Rave, or Shank Hall most of the time here in WI.

The only "show" I've ever attended in Green Bay was a Mike Keneally guitar clinic for Taylor guitars....

Go Packers! Haha!
If you haven't already...check out Wiszdomstone. They are mostly a studio band, but hail from Wisconsin and feature many guest musicians on their tracks (see History section on their website).

You'll probably see Ray and Brian walking around Progpower this year.

I've heard Appleton is a more rocking town than GB, and only 30 miles away. You might look into some bars/clubs out there...

The Firewalk girls out there are a not a band but do promotions for lots of metal acts including locals.
