Well, it's the last day of the State Fair, the annual event where Minnesotans grapple with the eternal question, "Corndog or Pronto Pup?" I will forever be a member of Team Corndog but the Bill Simenson Orchestra invites aficionados of all kinds of food on a stick to hear an evening of original music tomorrow evening, Tuesday 9/2/25. We'll be at Jazz Central Studios (407 Central SE in Mpls) as usual starting at 8:30 pm and ending at 10:30 pm. Oh, and I'll have a new tune for you all..........
Reeds - Pete Whitman, Brian Handeland, Bryan Murray, Scott Johnson, Gus Sandberg. Trumpets - Riley Helgeson, Bill Simenson, Ryan Garmoe. Trombones - Pete Enblom, Nick Syman, Matt Echols, Brooklynne Audette. Rhythm - David Martin, Ted Godbout, Christian Swenson, Dave Stanoch.

As usual, I'll have CDs and download cards of our 2017 release, "Big Alpaca," available for sale. If you already have a copy, or if you've heard a tune on KBEM that you enjoyed we'd be happy to play it for you. CDs and downloads are also available at Bandcamp (
https://billsimenson.bandcamp.com/album/big-alpaca). Download a copy today, have a listen, and we can play your favorite selection for you live.
