A Polka Party in Fremont

By Mercie Hallow

Dancing has always been my ultimate passion. I was exposed to the art of dancing as a kid and took part of competitions and performances while growing up. Dancing has been a part of my growing up years. I was able to perform several types of dances including native folk to ballroom to modern. My friends and I knew each other and bonded because we are all dancers, and we all love dancing.

Joe Spellerberg is a dance icon in Fremont, Nebraska. He was very popular in the area and the most sought after artist in performances and parties. He hosts a show at KHUB in Fremont titled The Polka Show. He was a man on top of his game. One fateful night led him to change his name to Moostash Joe. This name further rose him to popularity and had been a household name in Fremont ever since.

The name Moostash Joe was gotten after a fateful night Joe had while on the way to another dancing gig. He was held by a policeman named Mayhew because he was apparently over speeding. Mayhew noticed that he was sporting a thin moustache and suggested that his show needed a better name of The Moostash Joe Polka Show. The incident left the two men with a lasting friendship and thus the famous name was born.

Moostash Joe isnt just a Polka group show now as Joe and his family set up a business called Moostash Joe Tours. The Moostash Joe Tours is a tours company that was founded more than 40 years ago and is currently being run by Joe and his family as staffs and employees. The Moostash Joe Tours offers tour packages on International basis and within the United States too. The tours company of Joe leaves satisfied customers always.

Moostash Joe is definitely not only about Polka but they invite you all dance lovers out there to celebrate with them as the Moostash Joe Polka Party happens on March 28 at the City Auditorium in Fremont, Nebraska.
