An addition to the Newsletter from Ray

After I had finished this month's newsletter, I received a voice mail from an old friend about another old friend.

There are two people who I look up to more than anyone in this business.  Those peple are Jeff Olson and Ken Miller.  I am so sad to report that Kenny Miller passed away on Tuesday.

Kenny and I were partners in a bar on Lincoln Avenue.  Our breakup was very ugly and our friendship was ruined.  I probally hadn't talked to Kenny in 8 years.

The one saving grace was the last time we talked we settled many issues between us.  I loved, respected and learned so much from this man.  To Connie, the Miller Family, all of his friends, you have my deepest condolences.  I think today we should all raise our glasses and toast Kenny Miller because I think that's what he would want us to do.


We need a slogan!!!

Vote for your favorite one or submit your own idea.  Here is the list to-date:

  1. Relax, catch some Rays
  2. Relax, tough guy
  3. We were hot before it was popular
  4. It's like Wisconsin, only cooler
  5. Relax, where it's always a quarter to nine
  6. Relax your sphincter
  7. Relax on Milwaukee, we're hot now
Like one of these or can you think of one better. 

Also, we at Relax on Milwaukee are sad to announce: 
VINCE IS GONE!!!

If anyone's seen Vince, please contact us.

Sorry, but we only accept cash.  Please also be sure to bring your ID.

We Card Hard!

Relax on Milwaukee cards it customers and obeys the rules. We work hard to give people a nice time. Ray the owner is a good guy. Hes struggling to make his bar survive in trying times and in a neighborhood that can be very unforgiving. Anyone who goes there knows they're going to get a good drink at a fair price. Whoever has been writing this bullshit about the bar not carding and what not should...(trimmed)

"We card hard". I know of at least 6 people under the age of 21 that you let into your establishment on a regular basis. I have photos of them drinking inside your bar and also confirmation of their ages and am contacting ABC to let them know.

I find it absolutely shocking that you allow that girl April into your bar when she is only 19. I think this is something you need to rectify before the authorities are contacted.

Hi Ray! It's been a while. Remember me? I'm still in Boston, and have 2 boys. I get to bartend every now and then, but am home most of the time. Kenny Grundt sent me your website info. Hope all is well with you. Drink a shot for me!
