Hey, music enthusiasts! On the eve of Thanksgiving, with the house empty, I seized the opportunity to hit the town with my camera to capture the pre-holiday excitement. The first stop on my musical journey was Cedar Bar in Neenah, Wisconsin, where my good friend Pat Pedersen was tearing it up with the band Back N Kickin.

Cedar Bar, though smaller in size, packs a punch when it comes to creating an inviting atmosphere. As I stepped inside, the buzz of conversation, clinking glasses, and the lively tunes from Back N Kickin filled the air. The place was already adorned with Christmas decorations, setting the stage for a festive night.

Back N Kickin had set up in a cozy side area of the bar, and let me tell you, the place was rocking. The crowd was a mix of folks grabbing drinks, enjoying dinner, and soaking in the tunes. Pat and the band had everyone in a cheerful, pre-holiday mood.

I lingered for about an hour, relishing every moment of the Back N Kickin performance. However, my night was just beginning, and I had two more venues on my list. As I bid farewell to Cedar Bar, the promise of more musical delights awaited.

Stay tuned for the next chapter as I headed to Gameday Sports Bar in Appleton to catch Bad Habitz. The night was young, and the music scene in the Fox Cities was alive and kicking. Until the next story unfolds, keep the groove alive!
