On Repeat with Dino Corvino: The lasting impact of Tyler Vogt on central Wisconsin’s music scene

By Dino Corvino for Wausau Pilot & Review Central Wisconsin does not do a very good job of celebrating the cool stuff and cool people who do cool things in our arts culture as it is. So, I thought I would say something about that this week. This playlist was put together by Tyler Vogt. If you do not know Tyler, it is nice that you just moved to town. I met Tyler when we were both at preschool. He was at Peking, and I was at the Pub. We were not buds, but both of us were Midnight Ramblers. He was friends with Tony S., and I knew Tony’s older brother Paul, so that makes Tyler and me practically brothers. Either way, the line from Peking to Malarkey’s and Townies and the Westside thing, and whatever the place in Rib Mountain was called, is a short one in my memory, and surely a long one in the story of Tyler and his people. The impact of Tyler really cannot be overstated. From tables on the sidewalk to whatever the rules are about beer on the 400 Block, that’s all Tyler.
