Here’s to a remarkable night of music, camaraderie, and cherished memories at Tuggers!

When we rolled into Cadillac Jack’s on November 14th, we honestly weren’t sure how an acoustic duo would go over in a place that leans hip-hop and dance. We tuned up, crossed our fingers, and hoped our set lists would land. By the end of the night, we were grinning at each other between songs, because it was clear: they were in.

Figuring Out Cadillac Jack’s

Cadillac Jack’s in Bloomington, IL has a lot going on in one room—multiple bar areas, TVs, and a big dance floor that clearly sees a lot of late-night action. Their stage is set up so you can actually see people’s faces instead of just silhouettes, which makes a huge difference when you’re trying out slower songs or taking requests.

As we finished soundcheck, we both had the same thought: this might not be “our” crowd on paper, but we were curious to see what would happen.

The Crowd That Wasn’t Expecting an Acoustic Duo

The room filled up with a pretty mixed crowd—people who came for the DJ, people hanging at the bar, and a few who clearly just wanted to dance to whatever was loudest. Even so, they gave us a real shot. We could feel it after the first couple of songs.

At one point we slowed things way down with “Slip Slidin’ Away.” It’s not exactly a club banger, but when we hit the last chord, the applause was big and genuine. That was the moment we relaxed a bit and thought, “Okay. They’re with us.”

Requests, Surprises, and a Guest Named Yo

Once everyone realized we were taking requests, things got interesting in the best way. Here are a few of the moments that stuck with us:

• Neil Diamond fans came out of the woodwork, calling out classics from across the room. We did what we could on the spot and even found ourselves promising a Steely Dan tune for next time. Now we actually have to learn it.
• A local singer named Yo hopped up with us for “Tennessee Whiskey” and “Come Together” by The Beatles. We hadn’t planned on sharing the mic, but the crowd leaned in, phones came out, and it turned into one of the standout parts of the night.
• We wrapped the set with upbeat songs like “Stuck in the Middle With You” and “Mustang Sally,” which turned out to be the perfect handoff to the DJ’s Saturday Night Club Vibe. By the time we were packing up, the dance floor was already shifting gears.

One of the bouncers summed it up for us on our way out: “I didn’t think that kind of music would work here, but you guys won them over.” Hearing that from someone who sees every kind of night in that room meant a lot.

We also had a great conversation with Miranda, the bartender, who said she’d like to have us back. We don’t take that lightly—bartenders see and hear everything, so that kind of feedback goes straight to the top of our mental highlight reel.

Post-Show Taco Bell and Looking Back

After we loaded out, we did what any self-respecting musicians do at the end of a long show: hit Taco Bell. Over burritos and whatever we could get our hands on quickly, we replayed the night—the surprise requests, Yo jumping in, the way “Slip Slidin’ Away” somehow worked in a club setting.

We also grabbed some solid footage of Yo singing with us, and we’ll be sharing that soon. It’s the kind of thing you can’t really plan, and that’s exactly why we love it.

Come Hang With Us Next Time

Our night at Cadillac Jack’s reminded us how fun it is to walk into a room that isn’t “built” for acoustic music and win people over one song at a time. We’re looking forward to getting back there and seeing what happens on round two.

If you’re putting together an event and want live music that can roll with the unexpected—taking requests, adapting to the room, and keeping things genuine—book us for your next event.

Here’s to more nights where we plug in, read the room, and see where the songs take us.

Settling in at Pour Bros. Craft Taproom

Pour Bros. has started to feel less like a tour stop and more like a familiar hangout for us. Matthew and the whole crew had everything dialed in before we even played a note, which made it easy to relax and just focus on the songs.

The pour-your-own-beer wall was busy all night—people wandering over between tunes, topping off their glasses, then drifting back to their tables or the bar. It’s the kind of place where you recognize faces from past shows, and even if you don’t, it still feels like everyone’s on the same wavelength.

Songs, Sing-Alongs, and One Wild Request

Once the room filled in, we kicked things off with a run of songs that always seem to pull people in. We leaned on a few of our go-tos:

• “American Girl” – Tom Petty
• “Piano Man” – Billy Joel
• “Round Here” – Counting Crows
• “Bittersweet” – Big Head Todd and the Monsters

By the time we hit “Piano Man,” we could hear people singing along from the back of the room. That’s always the moment where it feels less like a performance and more like a group project.

At one point someone called out a request for “WAP,” which gave us a good laugh. That one’s a little outside our usual piano-and-guitar lane, so we had to pass—but it’s those off-the-wall requests that remind us we’re all just having fun together.

Faces Lighting Up, Tables Standing Up

One of my favorite moments came when a couple walked in right as we were playing a Grateful Dead tune. You could see it on their faces instantly—they heard the song, looked at each other, and you knew we’d accidentally hit on something that mattered to them.

There was also a table that went all-in on showing their appreciation. After what felt like every song, they’d stand up and clap like we’d just finished a stadium encore. It was both flattering and a little hilarious, and it kept us smiling between songs.

When we wrapped up our main set, people started calling for one more. We hadn’t played “Don’t Ask Me Why” by Billy Joel in a while, but it felt like the right way to close things out, so we dusted it off. It came back quicker than we expected, and the room was quiet in all the right spots.

Snowflakes, Load-Out, and That First-Winter-Night Feel

While we were playing, the weather decided to change the script. The rain that had been hanging around earlier turned into a light snow by the time we started packing up. We stepped outside with our gear and saw a thin layer of white starting to settle on the street and cars.

There’s something about hauling amps and stands through falling snow that makes it feel like the season has officially turned. Inside, people were still finishing their drinks and talking over the last songs of the night. Outside, it was quiet, just the sound of our cases rolling over the sidewalk.

Back at Pour Bros. for New Year’s Eve

We’re excited to say we’ll be ringing in the new year back at Pour Bros., playing their New Year’s Eve Party from 9 PM until just after midnight. If you couldn’t make it on November 8th—or if you were there and want to do it again—we’d love to see you when the clock counts down.

If you’re planning your own event and want this kind of live acoustic feel, book us for your next event and we’ll help you build a night that fits your crowd.

Huge thanks to Matthew, the staff at Pour Bros., and everyone who came out to share the music, the laughter, and that surprise snowy send-off.

Walking into Treehouse Pub & Eatery on November 1 felt less like loading in for a gig and more like dropping by a neighborhood hangout we’d somehow missed out on until now. The reclaimed wood, the low hum of conversation, the smell of pizza coming out of the oven—it all made it pretty easy to forget we were technically there to work.

Treehouse Pub: Food, Friends, and a Stage

Treehouse in Bettendorf has a reputation for being one of those places where people actually show up for the music, not just the TV screens and appetizers. Their menu is no joke either—gourmet burgers, artisan pizzas, and a long list of craft beers that had more than a few people studying the taps like a final exam.

My pre-show ritual that night was the Cuban Sandwich on Rustic Sourdough. It was exactly what I needed before we started—messy in the best way, and just enough fuel to make it through the first set without eyeing everyone else’s plates.

New Tunes, Old Favorites

We built the night around a mix of songs we know like muscle memory and a few we were brave (or foolish) enough to debut on the spot.

New additions to the set included:

• “Bittersweet” by Big Head Todd and the Monsters – We definitely took a minute to find our footing on this one, but once it locked in, the room leaned in with us and it ended up being a crowd favorite.
• “Jealous Again” by The Black Crowes – Our version turned into one of those head-nod, foot-tap moments where you can tell people recognize it from the first few chords.
• “Round Here” by Counting Crows – This one is no small lift, but we were really happy with how our first run went. It felt like the kind of song we’ll keep coming back to.
• “What You Give” by Tesla – This started as a surprise request and quickly turned into a sing-along. Sometimes the unplanned ones are the most fun.

We also mixed in some originals, including my song “My Shadow”. We’d only rehearsed it a handful of times, so it still had that slightly fragile, on-the-edge feeling, but it settled in nicely and might have just earned itself a regular spot in future sets.

Two Gears, One Night

At one point I joked with Tom that we only have two gears: before the wine and after the wine. Early in the evening, everything felt dialed in—tight harmonies, clean transitions, the kind of set where people can talk over their dinner but still catch a line here and there.

As the night went on, the room loosened up and so did we. We started leaning into the banter, telling a few stories between songs, and letting the tempo and volume creep up just enough to match the noise level of the bar.

Tom’s parents came out, which always makes it feel a little like a family gathering, and our friends Katherine and Marshall were there too. Having familiar faces in the crowd changes the whole night—it turns a show into more of a conversation.

Guest Vocals and TV Theme Curveballs

Marshall ended up joining us on stage for a few jazz standards, and his baritone voice completely shifted the mood in the best way. You could feel the room go quiet in that “nobody wants to talk over this” kind of way.

Later on, someone tossed out a request for TV theme songs. That turned into us pulling out the “Taxi” theme, which is not exactly something you expect to hear at a pub on a weeknight. It got a big reaction and more than a few surprised smiles.

Sing-Alongs and a World Series Win

We moved “Piano Man” earlier in the set than we usually do, and it immediately turned into a full-house sing-along—the kind where you can pretty much stop playing and let the crowd carry it.

The World Series game was on while we played, so to nod to that, we wrapped up with “Take Me Out to the Ball Game”. It was another one of those songs everyone knows whether they planned to sing or not.

By the time we got home, the Dodgers had clinched the World Series. That win meant a lot to Greg and to his mom’s late husband, who was a lifelong Dodgers fan. It felt like the night ended on a personal high note, both on and off the stage.

Thanks, Treehouse

Huge thanks to Brian and the whole team at Treehouse Pub & Eatery for taking such good care of us and giving us a place where the music, the food, and the people all seemed to be on the same wavelength. We’re already looking forward to coming back.

If you’re planning a party, private event, or anything that could use some live acoustic music, we’d love to be part of it. Book us for your next event and let’s see what kind of night we can create together.

Last Friday at Treehouse Pub & Eatery in Bettendorf, IA felt less like a brand-new gig and more like walking back into a room we already knew how to play. We rolled our cases onto the back patio, did the usual cable tangle and tuning tweaks, and by the time we looked up, the place had filled in with conversation, clinking glasses, and people settling in to hang out with us for the night.

The “Backyard” Stage Out Back

If you haven’t been to Treehouse Pub & Eatery, the name isn’t just clever branding. The back patio really does feel like someone built a multi-level wooden treehouse, then decided it needed a bar, a kitchen, and a lot of railings. There are string lights overhead, solid tables, and just enough elevation changes to make it feel like a backyard someone kept adding onto.

From the first tune, people felt close in—not just physically, but in the way they were actually paying attention. Heads turned when we hit the first chord. Folks were humming and singing along on the choruses, tossing us requests and comments between sets. We never feel like background noise at Treehouse; the patio leans into the show with us.

Starting Big, Then Sneaking In the New Stuff

We opened with a more upbeat first set to match the early dinner rush—songs with hooks people recognize, steady grooves, and plenty of toes tapping under the tables. Once that first wave finished their food and started heading out, the patio thinned a bit, and we took that as our chance to get a little braver with the set list.

“South City Midnight Lady” by The Doobie Brothers has been living on our music stands for a while, so finally playing it in front of actual humans felt like checking off a quiet little goal. It’s a layered, slow-burn song, and we honestly weren’t sure how it would feel outside the practice room. The applause came quickly and felt genuinely warm—one of those exhale moments that makes you think, “Okay, we can keep going down this road.”

We also brought out “Walk On the Ocean” by Toad the Wet Sprocket and “Round Here” by Counting Crows for their first public spin. Both of those live in that moody, storytelling lane we love—less about huge singalong choruses and more about letting the lyrics and dynamics carry things. You could feel the patio quiet down a notch as people tuned in, which is exactly what we hope happens with songs like that.

Cranking It Back Up With Old-School Rock & Roll

As the night went on, more people drifted back onto the patio, and the volume of the room climbed right along with them. We shifted gears and reached for the old rock & roll anchors: “Be-Bop-a-Lula” and “Great Balls of Fire.” Those two refuse to sit quietly in the background.

There was clapping on the backbeats, some full-on chair-dancing, and a lot of big grins aimed our way. Those piano parts move fast enough that there’s not much time to think about anything except keeping your hands where they’re supposed to be, but hearing people singing over the top of it makes the juggling act worth it.

Craig, Jana, and Familiar Family Faces

One of the highlights of the night was meeting Craig and Jana, who stayed with us all the way through the last song. After we wrapped up and started the slow process of coiling cables and packing up, we caught them on their way out and had a quick conversation and thank-you. Those end-of-the-night chats are short, but they’re the ones that replay in your head on the drive home.

We also had some very familiar faces in the crowd: Tom’s parents came out to the show. Having family in the audience adds a strange mix of comfort and pressure—you know at least two people out there have heard you practice these songs when they were a lot rougher, so you’re hoping they notice the progress.

Patio Weather That Actually Behaved

The weather did us a favor and hovered right around 75°. No jackets, no shivering, and we weren’t chasing guitars or piano tuning all night. For an outdoor show, that’s about as low-maintenance as it gets.

We’re not counting on that kind of luck once the temperatures drop, which is why we’re actually looking forward to our next Treehouse date being indoors—our first time playing the inside space there. Same crowd, same staff, just a new corner of the building for us to figure out.

Next Treehouse Date & How to Bring Us to Your Event

We’ll be back at Treehouse Pub & Eatery on Saturday, November 1. Whether you’ve seen us a bunch of times or you’re just curious what a piano–guitar duo sounds like in that room, we’d love to have you there.

If you’d like Bell & Field to bring this mix of new tunes, familiar classics, and plenty of interaction to your own event, you can book us for your next event. We’re always glad to add another party, wedding, or gathering to the growing list of nights we get to play.

This past Saturday, I (Tom) loaded up my guitar and drove over to the Midland Golf Club in Kewanee, IL, where the Kewanee High School Class of 1975 was gathering for their 50th reunion. By the time I walked in, people were already calling out names across the room and finishing stories that clearly started a long time ago.

50 Years of Stories, 3 Hours of Songs

From 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM, I played solo acoustic guitar and sang while classmates caught up, swapped old stories, and passed phones around with grandkid photos. I set up off to the side of the room—close enough to be heard, but far enough that people didn’t have to shout over the music.

I told a few folks that I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend a Saturday night. Watching friendships that have stretched over 50 years fall right back into place is pretty grounding. Between songs, the room was loud with laughter and “Do you remember when…?”—exactly what you hope for at a reunion.

Songs That Took the Class of ’75 Back

We leaned hard into the music this class grew up with—the 1960s and 1970s songs that were probably on their car radios and record players back then. A few that clearly hit a nerve:

• “We May Never Pass This Way (Again)” by Seals and Crofts
• “Sunshine” by Jonathan Edwards
• “Stand By Me” by Ben E. King
• Encore: “I Saw Her Standing There” by The Beatles

“We May Never Pass This Way (Again)” felt almost too on-the-nose for a 50th reunion, but in the best way. I could see people quietly mouthing the words at their tables, some staring off for a second before snapping back into conversation.

By the time I got to “Stand By Me,” a few couples had decided that sitting down was overrated and made their way to the dance floor. It wasn’t a huge crowd out there, but the ones who danced really leaned into it.

The surprise of the night came at the very end. The room called out for “I Saw Her Standing There” as an encore, and that turned into a full-on dance break. About 20 determined classmates stayed on their feet, dancing and singing like it was the KHS gym floor back in the 70s instead of a golf club in 2025.

How Midland Golf Club Fit the Reunion

Midland Golf Club turned out to be a solid home base for this kind of gathering. There was enough space for people to wander from table to table, give long overdue hugs, and still carve out a little dance floor when the songs called for it.

From my spot with the guitar, I could see clusters of classmates all over the room—people leaning in, pointing across the way, and laughing at something only the KHS Class of ’75 would really understand. The staff kept things quietly on track in the background so everyone could stay focused on catching up instead of worrying about logistics.

Closing Out With the Class of 1975

At the end of the night, I told them, “Hats off to the KHS Class of 1975!” and I meant it. It was a genuine pleasure being the background (and every now and then the foreground) soundtrack for a group that still clearly loves its classic rock and pop.

Those three hours went by quickly: familiar songs, old friends reconnecting, and a handful of brave dancers who refused to let the night end quietly.

Need Live Acoustic Music for Your Reunion or Event?

If you’re planning a reunion, wedding, or any kind of celebration and you’d like live acoustic music—guitar, piano, and vocals—my duo partner Greg and I would be glad to be part of it. You can find details here: Book us for your next event.

Whether you want us tucked into the background while people catch up, or leading a singalong at the end of the night, we’re all in on helping your group reconnect over the songs they know by heart.

On Saturday, December 6, we’re loading up the guitar and piano and heading into downtown Lincoln for a three-hour acoustic hang at Copper & Oak Bourbon and Craft Beer Bar. If your idea of a solid Saturday is live music, good people, and a serious bourbon and craft beer lineup, this one’s for you.

We’ll be playing as Bell & Field from 5:00-8:00 PM while you explore their bourbons, whiskeys, and rotating craft beers. Expect classic songs from the ’60s through the ’90s, stripped down to guitar, piano, and two voices, in a bar that clearly cares about what’s in your glass.

When, Where, and What We’re Doing

• When: Saturday, December 6, 5:00-8:00 PM
• Where: Copper & Oak Bourbon and Craft Beer Bar – 227 N Kickapoo St, Lincoln, IL 62656 (right in the heart of historic downtown and the Route 66 Plaza)
• Who: Live acoustic set by Bell & Field
• What to Expect: Classic melodies from the ’60s-’90s, a deep bourbon and whiskey list, and plenty of distinctive craft beers to ease you into the weekend.
• Website: Copper & Oak Bourbon and Craft Beer Bar

What Bell & Field Sounds Like in a Room Like This

We’re an acoustic duo that plays the songs we grew up on: ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s favorites that people actually know the words to. We keep the setup simple-guitar, piano, and two voices-and let the songs carry the weight.

Our sets are built for spots like Copper & Oak. You can still hear the lyrics, you don’t have to shout across the table, and when your favorite chorus hits, you’ll feel it even if you’re mid-conversation. We like to read the room as we go: easing in with slower tunes while everyone gets their first drink, then nudging the tempo up as the night rolls on and the bar fills out.

Bourbon Shelves, Craft Taps, and Route 66

Copper & Oak sits in the new Route 66 Plaza in historic downtown Lincoln, and it feels like it was put together by people who really care about what they pour. There are shelves of bourbon and whiskey behind the bar, over 21 craft beers on tap, and a speakeasy-style room that makes you want to stay for “just one more.”

It’s the kind of place where one table might be comparing tasting notes on a new whiskey flight while the next is just clocking out from the week with a cold craft beer. We’ll be playing to both: songs you can tap your foot to while you talk, and a few that might make you stop mid-sip because you haven’t heard them in a while.

Come Spend a Saturday With Us in Lincoln

If you’ve seen Bell & Field before, come check us out in a new room. If you haven’t caught a show yet, this is an easy first time-no tickets, no big production, just live music, good drinks, and a Saturday evening in downtown Lincoln.

If hearing us at Copper & Oak gets you thinking about live music for your own thing-a small wedding, a private party, or a night at your bar-you can find details about booking us here: https://www.bellandfieldmusic.com/book-acoustic-duo/.
