Excellent Polka Band

We had an Octoberfest party at my work and we hired the Die Polka Schlingels for the entertainment. They did an excellent job! They played a lot of songs we were familiar with and gave some history on the ones we weren't. And I got to say I loved the special hats one player had. He had a different hat depending on the song they where playing. Lots of fun. If you have a need for a polka band you got to hire the Die Polka Schlingels.
