Chuck Brennan

Boys & Girls Club to dump Brennan R & R academy

I suppose if I had half the night to speculate why this is happening, I could come up with quite a few conclusions;

The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Sioux Empire and Brennan Rock & Roll Academy said Monday that they are ending an exclusive partnership to provide music education services to children.

As I called around to friends in the music world in Sioux Falls, I pretty much got the same derogatory statements about Chuck Brennan, ironically the same was said when he announced he was going to sponsor the place to begin with.

Besides the obvious ‘statements’ no one knows who dumped who. We both know at the end of the day it will be a ‘mutal’ agreement, but we all know better.

As someone said to me months ago about the studio space, “It’s set up more to be a night club or bar then a music school.” which only makes one wonder if Chuck got tired of his charitable giving and is going to create Badlands II out of the space.

Either way, hopefully the real story comes out why this partnership ended and I hope some of the people who volunteered as teachers at the place are brave enough to speak out.

Wordplay with Chuck Brennan

Chuck had some notables on the SuFuStu show yesterday;

Huether? Mayor. (Lalley did give him heck about dodging the question, and Chuck said, “A total dodge”)

Hildebrand? Who?

Darrin Smith? Absent.

That last one was very telling. A few weeks back a city official told me that Chuck is having difficulties dealing with Darrin on his project and traffic flow.
