Party at Paulie’s Pub (x4)!

Milwaukee’s Addiction would like to thank everyone that came out to Paulie’s Pub and Eatery last night for our multiple birthday bonanza! No less than 4 of our rockin’ friends celebrated their b-days and whoa, there was some good times flowing, if you know what I mean! Birthday girls MaribethKelly & Paula danced their tails off all night long and birthday boy Steven joined us on stage to sing one of his faves, ‘Let if Go’ from Def Leppard, and he rocked it! Eddie of Motley Brue also joined us to belt out our Motley Crue favorite, SOS and nailed it, as usual! We saw many familiar faces and also new ones too, some all the way from Green Bay! Special thanks go out to all of our fans, friends and families that come out and support us, and other local music too! We’d also like to thank Paul for allowing us to once again, invade his fine establishment and kind of blow the doors off. We appreciate the hospitality. 😉 Also, thanks to Angelo and Jon and ALM Fusion for doing sound & lights like only they can. That was one hell of night! Hope you can join us this Sat. (11/18) at Knucklehead Pub or next Sat. (11/25) at Kelly’s Bleachers Big Bend – KBBB.

Happy Birthday to our friends: Steven, Maribeth, Paula & Kelly!

Halloween Horror 2017 at Lucky Chance!

Milwaukee’s Addiction would like to thank everyone that stopped in, or rocked with us all night at Lucky Chance! What a kick ass night! Your costumes were freaking amazing this year, lots of killer clowns! Loved it! There was a lot of great bands playing last night and we really appreciate everyone that joined us for the evening. Kelly and her crew, once again, handled the wild masses with ease, and Angelo from ALM Fusion Event Services rocked the sound board like only he can. The drinks were flowing, the Jello shots were jiggling and the dance floor was packed! That’s the way to party, my friends! Rock on!

Harley Davidson Rally 2017!

Milwaukee’s Addiction would like to thank everyone that made it out to Wisconsin Harley-Davidson for the 2017 Harley Rally! We were proud to be a part of their incredible Rally lineup! Although the weather didn’t fully cooperate, we still rocked the steadfast crowd that wasn’t going anywhere. What a hearty group! Lots of friends from near and afar made it to the party too. The bikes I saw were amazing, lots of cool vendors there, friendly faces everywhere and the event staff keeps all this going like a well oiled machine. All in all, despite a little weather, Addiction had a great time rocking at Wisconsin Harley! Special thanks go out to Dianne for everything she does to make this THE event to be at Rally Weekend! Also, I have to give a shout out to my buddy Gary for hanging out front row center the whole time! Rockin’ in the rain with his lovely lady when everyone else retreated to the covered party building. Hardcore man, we love it! Rock on, my friends!

Addiction rocks Wisconsin State Fair!

Milwaukee’s Addiction at Wisconsin State Fair 2017 – Great times! Addiction would like to thank all of our loyal fans, friends and families for spending some time with us this year at one, or more, of our State Fair shows. The staff at the Knucklehead Pub and Water Street Brewery stages were great to work with and the crowds were a blast! We debuted a few new songs that weren’t exactly metal when they came out, but we fixed that. ‘Message in a Bottle’ and ‘Come Together’, played the way an 80’s Metal band would’ve done ’em. The masses approved and both were received very well, muhaha. The weather played out great too. We’re a lucky bunch, at least some days. Right boys? 😉 We filmed a race between our band mates on the Giant Slide, threw down devil horns with Scott Steele and stumped the age guessing dude – he under estimated one of our guys by 9 years, yeah! We also ate various foods on a stick, and found time time catch some of the other great, local talent at the Fair. All in all, one hell of a week! We hope yours rocked too! Next up for Addiction is the 114th Harley Rally! Sat Sept 2 at Wisconsin Harley-Davidson 3 pm afternoon show time. Hope to see ya there! \m/

Bike night at Quaker Steak n Lube!

A big thank you to everyone that came out to join us at Quaker Steak last night. It started out a little scary as the threat of rain seemed to keep some bikers away but halfway thru the first set, that familiar sound of Harleys was gracing the parking lot. We debuted two new songs including a classic Gary Moore remake of Shapes of Things and Slaughters big hit Up All Night. The weather stayed beautiful for us throughout the night and we had a ton of friends show up. Next up, July 30th at Saloon on Calhoun for the Scott Dick Benefit with a ton of big time Milwaukee entertainment!

Jammin’ at Paulie’s Pub with Debacle

In what might be best described as a “momentary lapse of reason”, guitarist Steve of the Milwaukee band Debacle invited me up to play guitar with them for the Van Halen classic “Ain’t Talkin’ ’bout Love” while he went out and sang with the awesome crowd! Seriously though, Debacle put on a great show and it’s always cool to see a band that enjoys doing what it does. Thanks again for asking me to jam with you guys! ~Andy

Addiction at Mo’s Irish Pub in ‘Tosa!

Thank you! To all of our kick ass fans, friends and families that joined us at Mo’s last night, Milwaukee’s Addiction thanks you for sticking with us! The dreaded ‘technical difficulties’ plagued our opening set, but fortunately the sound man got it sorted out after our first 2 songs literally blew out the PA! We really appreciate all your patience and support and we couldn’t do it without ya! This week, a special thank you goes out to all of the very talented musicians from some great local bands that attend our shows regularly. It really means a lot to everyone in our band that our peers often choose to spend their night off with Addiction! Rock On, my friends! Next up, a 6 pm show for Bike Night at Quaker Steak and Lube on Wednesday July 12. Last year we were rained out. Boo. Let’s hope for perfect weather this year!
