Concert in Chicogoland
Celebrating 50 Years Of Performing
The
Wayne Faust Show
Concert in Chicogoland
Celebrating 50 Years Of Performing
Wayne
started this whole, epic adventure way
back in 1975, right after he graduated from Carthage College in Kenosha,
Wisconsin.
Since then he's done over 7000 shows, in
42 states, Mexico, England, Scotland, and Holland.
And now he's
coming back to Chicagoland, where it all began, for ONE NIGHT ONLY.
This is bound to be his best show yet, with people in the audience that saw
him WAY back when, along with their kids, and dare we say it, grandkids,
along with lots more fans that Wayne picked up doing his 50 years of shows.
He'll be performing songs and material from the old, old days, the middle
days, and, since he makes things up on the spot, songs from RIGHT NOW!
So expect a
night of nostalgia, improvisation, very special guests, and lots of Wayne's
funny songs like
"Bald Guys," "Save the Beer," "I'm Schizophrenic," and more.
There will also be a healthy dose
of Wayne's sentimental ballads - songs like
"Norwood Park," "Sailing Home,"
"A Sky Of Cubbie Blue," "Pretty Song For A Pretty Lady," and more.
In any event, IT'S GOING TO BE A BLAST!
SPECIAL
NOTE!
Wayne used to do these shows every November, but lately he's been
spacing them out, so this might be the last Chicagoland show until...well...
who knows? But he does turn 75 in a few years, so that could be the year for
another big celebration!

Elk's Lodge
Banquet Hall in Des Plaines, Illinois
Showtime
6:30 PM (note the earlier start time – by popular demand!)
Wayne
has done seven shows here and it's a GREAT ROOM - big enough to seat
everyone at tables, which is what most people prefer. There's a
sentimental connection for Wayne, because the Elk's Lodge is just a
few blocks away from where the old Des Plaines Ground Round used to
be,
which
is one of the places where Wayne started his career!
There
will be a cash bar and casual food available for purchase
(hamburgers, hot dogs, etc.)
If
you are going to see one Wayne Faust Show EVER, this is the
one.
