Join Tom for a Memorable Evening

This evening is about more than music — it’s about honoring five decades of memories. Tom Campbell’s performance will weave a soundtrack that complements the joy, reflection, and camaraderie of the Kewanee High School 50th Reunion.

Here’s to an evening of songs, stories, and celebration at Midland Golf Club.

We had such a wonderful time performing for Patrick and Eden’s engagement party at their beautiful private residence in Kewanee, IL! The evening was everything we could have hoped for: perfect weather, a picturesque outdoor setup, delicious food, and the warmest company you could ask for.

Highlights from a Perfect Summer Evening

• Outdoor setting was beautifully decorated, complete with an outdoor bar and even a large water slide for kids (and some adventurous adults!)
• Our hosts thoughtfully positioned us in a shady, level area—exactly what we needed for a comfortable performance.
• Greg experienced a delightful surprise reunion with Jana and Barry, familiar faces from Greg’s piano-playing days at Highlands. It was wonderful reconnecting with this lovely couple!
• Tom received a birthday gift – a leather guitar strap, engraved with “Bell & Field,” symbolizing the musical journey they share.
• A memorable moment when a 4-year-old guest expressed amazement: “I can’t believe it’s summer again already!” Tom and I couldn’t help but chuckle at this adorable insight.

Musical Moments

We didn’t introduce any new songs this evening, but the setlist was fresh for our lovely audience. The spontaneous request for Irish music inspired Tom to perform “Until We Meet Again,” a heartfelt original song crafted around the timeless melody of “Wild Mountain Thyme.” We were touched by the kind words we received afterward.

Other standout performances included:

• “Blue”
• “Losing My Religion”
• “Norwegian Wood”

We couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate Patrick and Eden’s love story. Congratulations again to this amazing couple—we wish you both a beautiful wedding celebration next May!

Wrapping up the Night

After packing up, we headed to McDonald’s to refuel and recover from the excitement (and perhaps from enjoying a bit of red wine!). With a busy week ahead—including an outdoor antique show on Saturday—we were grateful for this memorable event and a day to recuperate.

Celebrations like Patrick and Eden’s remind us how lucky we are to be part of life’s meaningful milestones. Here’s to love, laughter, and unforgettable music-filled evenings!
