We didn’t think, at the beginning of 2025, that we’d be so fortunate to close out the year at such a premier venue opening for such a widely-loved cover band . But there we were: On the schedule at Medina Entertainment Center, opening for The Fabulous Armadillos. We had to load in early, and had the pleasure of meeting those in the headlining band. We found them to be humble and friendly, aside from ridiculously talented.
We donned our best New Year apparel, from colors and sparkle on the boys, to the head-to-toe rhinestoned outfit that Beth displayed. We wanted the night to feel special. The downbeat dropped, and we were off to the races. It was hard to see the dancefloor from the stage as we entered our set, but once the lights turned up, we were delighted to see the floor packed with enthusiastic dancers and revelers. We crafted a setlist that covered everything from Heart to Lizzo, to Metallica, to The Killers, Styx, Queen, Billie Eilish and more. Every song seemed to hit well and we were on a roll. The 75 minutes were up far too soon and we felt we nailed the list with energy and accuracy!
The kudos were overwhelming from the audience and we stayed for the headliner. Our sets were complementary to each other and flowed seamlessly. We enjoyed kind words from the ‘Dillos and audience members alike as the band moved through the crowd. Best of all – we gained new followers and fans. There’s a feeling of gratitude for this Minnesota cover band as we enter 2026 and we’re sensing even more awaits us in 2026! Stay tuned!
