As part of this summer’s MHS All Class Reunion Festivities, McCook National Bank will feature the band “On The Fritz” in Norris Park on July 2nd as part of the wildly successful Hot Summer Nights concert series. The special gathering of classmates will be marked with a great deal of local pride as some will return to the community for the first time in many years. For one graduate, the event will be a childhood dream come true. Gregg Premer (class of ’93) finds himself in a situation that even national touring musicians fantasize about. “I don’t know how many times I daydreamed about performing on a stage in front of the entire school. I am sure it reflected on my report card. (laughter) There have been music videos based on this kind of phenomenon!” After Graduating from MHS, Gregg attended Wayne State College with a music scholarship studying Music Merchandising. After marrying his college sweetheart, he later settled in Lincoln where they started a family. Later moving to his wife’s hometown outside of Omaha, Premer found less and less time to enjoy his music. “I almost hung it up as most musicians do when life starts moving in fast forward in trying to balance a career and a family. I know now that if I had never been in a situation to play again, I would have felt incomplete.” Piloting the veteran Omaha band from behind the drum set, Premer feels that there is a bit of fate that has intervened in his return to the local stage. “This one is real special to me. Our schedule is packed with shows in the most sought after venues in the Midwest and we play for generations of audiences, but when I got the call that we booked this show back home, I was incredibly honored and felt that it was meant to be.” Established in 1980, “On The Fritz” features twin brothers Stan and Wayne Fritz. To their credit the Fritz brothers have shared the stage with such acts as Rush and Bryan Adams. As Omaha natives, they formed OTF upon returning from touring Canada in the ‘70s and quickly reeled in audiences from the “MTV generation” to become one of the region’s most popular cover bands. “It is hard for me to describe what it is like to share the stage with these guys. They have so many stories and have played countless shows yet they treat me as if I had been with them from the very start. We have quickly become the best of friends in my 2 years and I can’t wait to introduce my them tom my entire hometown at once on July 2nd!” For more details about On The Fritz visit www.onthefriz.net

This reunion will be pretty cool! The entire family can come home at the same time. We will get to see the siblings of our friends or kids who were younger or older than we were. We may have had older kids as mentors or find out that we had been admired by younger kids. Everyone coming together for the first time since graduation! Priceless!
