A message from Dan:
Hi, I’m Dan. I’m a whiskey & beer drinking, fishing & hunting loving, motorcycle riding, quality food eating, hippie sympathizing, hobby farm running, people loving, husband & father who lives in Minneapolis and shares a life with my amazing wife and two adorable sons named Oak and Alder.
I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, MI, and moved to Minneapolis when I was 18 to study music, and I stayed because I’m one of those crazy people that enjoys the snow and cold weather.
Songwriting, and performing those songs for people, is both my trade and my passion. When I’m not in my studio writing and cutting records, or on the road playing shows, I’m usually playing in the woods with our boys, tending to our backyard chickens, eating fresh veggies from my wife’s huge garden, making syrup from our maple grove, or doing one of my many outdoor hobbies.

Trippin Billies – The Dave Matthews Tribute Band - Jan 2
2026-01-02 19:30 - 22:00
Born in the pubs on the north side of Chicago, Trippin’ Billies took to the “stages” of small rooms in the mid-nineties as an acoustic duo. It wasn’t long before lines grew too long for the small bars and calls started coming in from around the Midwest. As a result, the band was forced to rise to the occasion, and for over twenty years… they’ve done just that.
Trippin’ Billies is comprised of some of Chicago’s absolute best musicians. They go far above and beyond the call of the average tribute band. Each band member’s love and respect for DMB, their impact, and for high-energy performance has moved them above the “bar band” circuit and into full-blown concert settings. Whether it’s a club in Iowa City, a hockey arena in North Dakota, or a summer festival in Rochester, New York or Lincoln, Nebraska, this band puts on a show that even a casual or non-fan of DMB can revel in.
The TBs tour schedule has come to resemble that of the Dave Matthews Band before their ascension to arena tours. Midsize venues sell out consistently across the country, and the famous theatres whose names were once inked on the cover of DMB bootlegs listened to by the band now comprise the tour schedule of Trippin’ Billies. The theatres they once approached with awe have now come to feel like home.
Trippin’ Billies is grateful to the fans, intuitive agents, and to Dave himself for helping to draw attention to their efforts in national publications. Hopefully they’ll see you out on the road.

In Memory of Rob Reiner, Princess Bride Director
The Princess Bride is a storybook adventure with a wink in its eye and a sword in its hand. Framed as a grandfather reading to his skeptical grandson, the tale follows Buttercup, a farm girl turned princess, and Westley, her true love who leaves to seek fortune and returns under the mask of the Dread Pirate Roberts.
Along the way, there are kidnappers with unexpected depth, duels fought with impeccable manners, a giant with a poet’s heart, a Spaniard driven by honor, a scheming prince allergic to sincerity, and enough cliffs, rodents, and miracles to keep destiny busy. Romance, revenge, comedy, and courage braid together into a fairy tale that knows exactly how magical it is and never takes itself too seriously.

Pat Stillman delivers the signature guitar riffs and solos that Mike Campbell made famous with The Heartbreakers. As the lead guitarist for Petty Things, Stillman masterfully replicates Campbell’s understated yet iconic style. A veteran of the Wisconsin music scene, Stillman’s playing is both soulful and electrifying, giving fans the unmistakable sound of Petty’s catalog, from “American Girl” to “Runnin’ Down a Dream.” Stillman’s dedication to capturing Campbell’s unique blend of rock and blues shines through in every performance. When not in Petty Things, he can be found playing jazz (The Swingin’ Royals), soul (Minor Worries), and funk (FBI and the Untouchable Horns) every week across Wisconsin.
Chris Okkerse – Bass Guitar
Holding down the low end is Chris Okkerse, a versatile musician who flawlessly channels the groove and backing vocals of Heartbreakers’ bassist Howie Epstein (Epstein himself was a Wisconsin native). Whether it’s the driving pulse of “You Wreck Me” or the subtle groove of “Don’t Do Me Like That”, Okkerse delivers the steady, reliable bass lines that Petty’s music demands. Chris also plays guitar in his music duo, The Cheese Doodles, solo acoustic shows, and is bassist for the popular country group, Chasin’ Mason.
Terry Michaels – Keyboards
On keyboards, Terry Michaels adds texture and layers to the band’s sound, bringing to life the atmospheric elements that Benmont Tench contributed to The Heartbreakers. From the signature piano in “Good to Be King” to the screaming Hammond organ in “Refugee,” Michaels’ playing is both versatile and expressive. A veteran keyboardist, Michaels skillfully replicates the rich, multi-dimensional soundscapes that made The Heartbreakers’ music so timeless. Outside of Petty Things, Terry can be found playing keys with his original prog rock band, Lyndenthal.
Erik Holmes – Drums
Erik Holmes drives the rhythm section with precision and energy, expertly recreating the drumming style of Stan Lynch and Steve Ferrone. Holmes’ ability to switch seamlessly between the tight, punchy beats of Petty’s rock anthems and the more subtle, nuanced grooves of their ballads makes him an integral part of Petty Things. Erik is a sought after drum instructor and can also be found playing drums with Geoff Landon’s High Country.
With Special Guest BD Greer as Stevie Nicks
Adding an extra layer of magic to Petty Things is BD Greer, who brings the presence of Stevie Nicks to the stage, performing hits like “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around” with Geoff Landon, as well as a few select Fleetwood Mac tunes. Greer’s background as one of Wisconsin’s most acclaimed jazz singers helps her beautifully capture Nicks’ signature raspy tone, and her chemistry with Landon brings the spirit of their iconic collaboration to life.
Together, Petty Things delivers an unforgettable live experience that pays homage to the legacy of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers. The band brings passion, authenticity, and love for the music, making each show a celebration of Petty’s enduring impact on rock and roll.
