We Had Fun and Nobody Died: Adventures of a Milwaukee Music Promoter

From a young age, Peter Jest was determined to make a career in live music, and despite naysayers and obstacles, he did just that, bringing national acts to his college campus at UW–Milwaukee, booking thousands of concerts across Wisconsin and the Midwest, and opening Shank Hall, the beloved Milwaukee venue named after a club in the cult film This Is Spinal Tap.  Author Amy T. Waldman and Jest will share the story of how he made his dreams come true.
