ON THE 2026 CALENDAR

SATURDAY, MAY 16, 8:00 PM - Pat Donohue & P.K. Mayo at Panino's in North Oaks, St. Paul. Due to Loons soccer we won’t be at the Midway Saloon this Wednesday, but Saturday I’ll be playing with my good guitar pickin’ buddy P.K.Mayo at a new (to me) place called Panino’s in North Oaks. It’s a great little restaurant and bar that’s well set up for music. Hope you can join us for what is sure to be a fun show, not to mention a great dinner and full bar.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 29, 6:00 - 8:00 PM - Pat Donohue & Friends for a Prairie Home Reunion of sorts with Richard Kriehn, Rich Dworsky and Garrison Keillor at the Midway Saloon in St. Paul. Mandolin virtuoso Richard Kriehn and piano maestro Rich Dworsky have been favorite P.D. & Friends guests for a while and this week we have the boss himself, Mr. Garrison  Keillor, who is flying in from N.Y.C. that day to join us. There will be music, frivolity and fun, and I imagine Mr. Keillor will have a few things to say, at which he is so darn good!   Midway Saloon.
