Support Our Troops Poker Run 2015



Dog Days Bar and Grill is excited to be a part of this weekend's Support Our Troops Poker Run.  Our very own Lake of the Ozarks waterfront restaurant is not only one of the stops, but we have been designated as the final stop for dropping off your cards, and we are hosting the amazing after-party.  

This year is the 8th Annual Support Our Troops Poker Run, and they are doing their best to make it the biggest one yet.  To date, $100,000 has been raised for H.E.R.O.E.S. Care, a wonderful organization that is dedicated to working with others to provide support to military families in the communities where they live.  They also donate a portion of their proceeds to the Global Orphan Project, which is headquartered in Kansas City, MO and mobilizes local churches in some of the poorest areas on earth to care for the neediest orphaned and vulnerable children in those communities.

Meet One of Our Featured Bands - Funhouse

You can always find the best live music at the Lake of the Ozarks at Dog Days Bar and Grill.  With 2 stages, we can keep the party going all night long without big breaks in between acts.  One of the amazing bands that will be gracing our stage this Summer is Funhouse.  





They describe themselves as the HOTTEST, HIGH ENERGY dance rock party Band, playing the LATEST dance tracks to make you wanna SHAKE IT!!!  Well, they have already played  here a few times, and we can definitely vouch for them.  When these guys play, the dance floor stays packed!  We asked the guys a few questions, and this is what they had to say.


The Band
  • Jimi James  -  guitar, vocals
  • Eddie Hines  -  bass guitar, vocals
  • Tommy Dwyer - drums, vocals
  • Micah Collins  -  production coordinator (audio/ lighting)
How did the band come together?

The band formed almost two years ago, with the idea of focusing on current songs & artists, as there are already a ton of 80's, 90'. classic rock, country, and blues bands in the area.  We wanted to play something different that could get dancers excited.


What are some favorite or unique gigs you have played?

ALL of them, with summer shows at Dog Days at the top of the list of course! The attendance of bachelorette parties always promise an "off the hook" evening.


What's a party like at Dog Days when you guys play? 

Absolutely some of my favorites... I love the lake and lake people... and the best party is at Dog Days.  Drinking, dancing, excited peeps... never a dull moment!!  Plus the staff is second to none.   



What does a typical set list look like?



Uptown Funk - Mark Ronson / Bruno Mars
Happy - Pharrell Williams
Love Runs Out - One Republic
Treasure - Bruno Mars
Counting Stars - one Republic
Safe and Sound - Capital Cities
the Real Slim Shady - Eminem
Feels So Close / Summer - Calvin Harris
Moves Like Jagger - Maroon 5
Don’t - Ed Sheeran
Geek in the Pink - Jason Mraz
Good Feeling - Flo Rida
Maps - Maroon 5
Lessons in Love - Neon Trees
Get Lucky - Daft Punk
Crazy - Gnarls Barkley
Forget You - Cee Lo Green

Who are some of your greatest musical influences?


All of it…….except polkas. 

A lot of punk and new wave influences....but still love the classic cats like Sir Paul McCartney, Elvis Costello, etc. etc......but I've come to appreciate a lot of current guys. 


Who drives on road trips?

Definitely Micah.

What's your favorite thing to eat at Dog Days?



The Jerk Chicken Quesadilla's ,of course...mmmmmmmm!!!!



Here's a great video of these guys rockin' our White Party earlier this month.
