WISN best local band contest - 2009!
Another great finish for the Cukes! We scored a 2nd place in 2009 for the WISN AList local band contest. That's 3 years in a row in the top 2 spots. You like us, you really like us.

THANK YOU!

The Screamin' Cucumbers

Sociable with Papa
You know winter is coming up quickly when you have to wear gloves to load up the band gear at the end of the night. Brrrr.

This was only our second time at Papa's Social Club but we already rank it up there with our favorite place to play. Built in PA and Sound man. Big stage. Swweeeetttt. We had some of our loyal Cuke-a-manics show up but we need to get everyone to come on out to Papa's. Trust us, it's a great place to catch the band.

First, thanks to our new friends at Papa's. Great group of people. It's fun for us to play at bars that are built to host live music.

Second, let's send our our props to A-Ron, Jen, the band spouses (after 6 years of gigin' they still come out to the shows), Soup, Julie, Paul, Aden, our free beer on the Cukes winners, Ashley, Kim, and our too sweet and too sexy door girl Lisa.

One final thing to mention. Elise wanted to make sure we thanked Naomi for coming out. Her husband Jason is in Iraq right now. Putting aside the politics, the Cukes are 100% behind our troops. We hope Jason and all of our troops stay safe and come home soon.

Check out the magical still action photos of the show Papa's Social Club Pictures.
Sandee's Rocktober
Check out the shots of the show Sandee's pics.

We are always blown away by the staff (Kerry and Jessie) and patrons at Sandee's. We know we don't get up to Sheboygan enough but we'll see what we can do about that in the near future.

We want to send a shout out to the lucky 'have a beer on the Cukes' winners: Michelle and Tina. One last happy birthday wish to Tina and Vicki. We love it when people party with us on their b-day

Mike & Traci (Cuke family), Matt, Charlotte, Connie, Francis, Jana, Steve, Heather, Elizabeth, Tyler, Katie, Bruce, thanks for signing up on the email list. We promise not to bug you too much.

Kristen thanks for helping us out with the pictures!

JDRF Charity Walk - Milwaukee Zoo 2009
To early morning charity supporting gigs in a row??? Yep that's the way we roll baby.

The weather was perfect, the monkies were "ohh ohh ohh-ing", and Brandon was finally able to return to the Zoo after that incident with the tigers and cheetahs. Really, we can't go into that here. But we are proud to have supported the local chapter of the JDRF for the third year in a row.

Check out the action in glorious still frame techmology!

Careful Brandon. Do you really want to taunt the cheetah again? Seriously dude. You might be mean with a pair of sticks but they have Sharp. Nasty. Claws.

Special thanks to Andrea and everyone else who helped set up the event. This is a huge event and by all accounts, it went extemely well. Thanks for having us and we can't wait to help out again next year.

Make A Wish Charity Run 2009
story image
The Cukes took a little time out of their sleeping schedule to donate our meager services to the Make A Wish Foundation 2009 Run Walk event. By all accounts it was a huge success. Our voices were maybe an octave low for the first song or two but the caffine kicked in and the rest of the show was a blast. Check out the pictures here and see the storm troopers, Vince Condella from Fox 6, Connie and Fish from 97 the Brew, and even some very excited (it was 8 am!!!) Brookfield Central cheerleaders... How can you be so excited at 8 am?!?!?!

A change, a change, a change will do you good.

The old site was getting pretty dusty so we decided to change things up a bit. Enjoy!
