Saturday at German Fest


Saturday at German Fest is always party night and everywhere you looked the party was going strong. In the morning, Edith Prock, was on our local TV and you can see some of those pictures along with others taken if you click HERE. The link will take you to webshots into the Saturday German Fest album. This year there was a live Tarzen in the culture tent representing the famous German-American, Johnny Weissmueller, and there are pictures that you can see if you click HERE.

It was also parade day. There were many, many local German groups participating in the parade and even some of the German stars were invited to be in the parade. The weather was absolutely perfect and we alll had a great "party" yesterday.

Edith Prock Interview

Remember back in 2006 when Edith Prock was performing at German Fest. Well, the Stimmung Stunde was still on the air here in Milwaukee and Tim Kretschmann did an interview with Edith at German Fest while they were sitting at one of the picnic tables on the fest grounds next to Lake Michigan. By the way, this one is all in English. Edith is quite a master at the language.

Just click here and you will be able to hear it.

2008 German Fest in Milwaukee

(posted June 18) Hey, now it's 35 days before German Fest and finally they updated their Culture page. Its still missing some important info, like FREE Thursday with $1 brats and History, Church Service & Entertainment are still coming soon.

But as you can see from my posts under the German-American community events, I have named a lot of entertainers and based on the schedule that German Fest has published, I will provide as complete a list as I can (even with links to their websites). But check back to this site often, because I will be providing videos of the entertainers in action and they will be changed often !!!

(posted June 21) I heard Klaus & Robert talking about the Love Monkeys coming to German Fest on Continental Showcase, so I went to the German Fest website and found nothing. But when I looked at the Love Monkeys website they listed that they are playing at German Fest on Thursday night. Those fans of the Love Monkeys should note that admission will be FREE that night with $1 brats.

Here is a video from:
Orig. Anton aus Tirol - Anton aus Tirol (posted June 18)
Edith Prock - Rosen aus dem Suden (posted June 21)
Barefoot Becky - who stole the Kischka (posted June 23)
Orig. Anton aus Tirol - Wass soll ich im Himmel (posted June 25)
Edith Prock - Im schoensten Wiesengrunde (posted June 29)
Orig. Anton aus Tirol - Wir sind alle Kleine Schweinchen (posted July 4)
Edith Prock - Ich wuensche mir a zeit (posted July 7)

It is only 16 days before German Fest here in Milwaukee and finally the German Fest website has listed Edith Prock on their Entertainment page. Edith Prock is the biggest star that is appearing at German Fest this year and for some strange reason they want it to be a secret? For the last few weeks, Margret Almer was listed (she was here last year) but no one thought it was important to correct the listing they had on their website. There is still a lot of info missing, but I am getting so tired of reporting all this stuff. I will be going to the fest anyway, but I just would like to see them be accurate and have some pride in what they are displaying on their website.
Since Edith Prock was so severely slighted by German Fest, I will be only showing video's by Edith Prock on my website here.

Edith Prock - Sag ma Du (posted July 10)


(posted July 10) I will stop updating this posting and simply just post new ones with new videos from Edith Prock and any other news I might have. German Fest is starting to put some information out on their website now. So you should be able to get some details now. But if you are not sure about something, be sure to call their office to verify any of your info. If you want some more details just click on the EVENTS button above.
