Hello Friends and welcome to another beautiful day in the neighborhood. Today we're thinking about this guy, our dear departed friend, Matt Keller, a sweet soul who cherished his family's heritage as the founders of the Silver Dome and neighboring Speakeasy (first known as the Fireplace Tavern). He would have been 39 today. And he loved music too, so let's remember him while listening to this sweet fingerstyle / slide number from Marshfield's own, AARON LEE KAPLAN, who will regale us from the Cooler Stage as part of Saturday's Blues Party. Hope to see you Saturday and, in the meantime, don't forget to love each other!

Hope to see you on Saturday and, in the meantime, don't forget to love each other!

Hello Friends. Another beautiful day in the neighborhood, hope you're all enjoying your holiday weekend, and many thanks to those who made the ultimate sacrifice to ensure that we all get to keep enjoying such weekends. A couple of random items as we approach our WISCO DIVE BAR WEEKEND next Friday through Sunday, MAY 29 - 31. We've come across an old wedding poster for Eileen Hoffman and Bob Bell. Not sure of the exact date of the wedding but it was quite some time ago so we don't know if Eileen or Bob are still with us. If they are, or if a family member sees this post, you're welcome to have this very cool memento (we've already got another one framed and hanging in the Dome). Just message us here, or email us through our website (silverdomeballroom.net), and we'll make some arrangements to get it to you.

Also, if anyone has some scaffolding they'd like to loan us for a day, we'd love to use it to dust off the massive mirror ball in the Dome. Probably hasn't been dusted in well over thirty years, about time, right? Like to do it Wednesday or Thursday if possible. Many thanks to anyone who can help us out and, of course, we'll return the favor with some comps to some shows, free drinks, something like that.

And finally, for all you Old Time Dancers out there, like those who attended Eileen and Bob's wedding dance, don't forget to mark your calendars for those perennial Midwest favorites, the RHYTHM PLAYBOYS next Sunday, May 31st. Doors at 12:30, music from 1 - 4 PM. Hope to see you all next weekend and, in the meantime, don't forget to love each other!

Hello Friends. Gloomy day in the neighborhood but a little rain is needed and welcome. Looking to add another local maple syrup producer or two to our Maple Syrup Tasting during our WISCO DIVE BAR WEEKEND, particularly someone who uses a reverse osmosis process. Feel free to comment or message us here, or email us through our website, silverdomeballroom.net, and we'll work out any necessary details. Thanks and more soon about the COULEE REGION CO****LE TOURNAMENT on Saturday, May 30th. Until then, as always, don't forget to love each other!

Hello Friends. Another beautiful day in the neighborhood and a random post here. One by-product of our new bar stools is that we've got these empty boxes we don't need, a dozen or more left, approximately 22 x 21 x 19. Yours if you want them or they're going in the firepit during WISCO DIVE BAR WEEKEND. First response either here or in messenger can have them and you can pick them up from mid-Friday afternoon through the weekend, or some other time by arrangement. Have at it and don't forget to love each other!
