Come on A-Squares, Show Some Love for Detroit Rock-n-Roll This Friday

D-E-T-R-O-I-T R-O-C-K-S.

This Friday the East Quad Music Co-Op's Halfass will be bringing down the house Motor City style, with three of the D's hottest homegrown bands, undoubtedly on the frontline of Detroit's current hybrid era of rock and roll.

The Muggs, with their blues influenced rock and roll, are critically acclaimed- locally by Real Detroit as 2009's Best Indie Rock Band and internationally, receiving raving reviews in French, Spanish, and Swedish music magazines.

Gorevette is a supergroup formed of known Detroit faces, including Detroit rock legend Nikki Corvette (Nikki and the Corvettes), Amy Gore, Lianna Castillo (Gore Gore Girls) and Al King (Powertrane).This band delivers the unique fusion of hard driving rock and punk sounds that will please the ears of any Detroit music fan.

The Crooks were described in Metro Times by music producer Kim Fowley as 'high school boys who play like Led Zeppelin." All under 18 and already making waves within and outside of the Detroit music scene, these legends in the making are a must-see.

DID WE CONVINCE YOU YET??

Let us persuade you in person- 730 Church St, 9pm, all ages, $5!

Mastodon Has Sold Their Souls to Cartoon Network

Mastodon Has Sold Their Souls to Cartoon Network

Last night I went to see Mastodon on the “Adult Swim Presents” tour. I had my reservations because it was a Cartoon Network thing but I really wasn’t quite prepared for the reality.

It started out weird. Security was really tight. "This is a metal show, maam" the security woman(?) told me as she confiscated my keychain bottle opener. I've been to shows at the Fillmore and all over and NEVER have I been given shit for a bottle opener. I informed her that i could shank someone much better with my actual KEY as she grabbed my bra and shook it out. Okay. So I was curious what all the fuss was about.

HA! It was a dorkfest, first of all. Because Dethklok was “playing”, the majority of the audience were late-night Adult Swimmers who don’t have anything better to do on Friday nights but watch TV and play video games, apparently. In fact, most of them didn’t seem to know who Mastodon even was.

It was marketed toward kids and “grown” kids of the gaming ilk. They had video game demos set up and were aggressively pushing the new game, Brutal Legend. I found that intensely annoying. There was even a fucking commercial shown before Dethklok took the stage.

The whole thing just bummed me out. Mastodon is such a good band and it sucked to see them whoring themselves out like that. Of course they played well, they are great musicians, but it was definitely without passion. Perhaps knowing that they’ve sold their souls has stolen their fire. Or maybe it’s the knowledge that 90% of the audience on the tour is there to see a cartoon band and not them. Either way, it’s a bummer.

SHONEN KNIFE & GOREVETTE TONITE AT THE STICK!

10/19/2009 9:00 PM at THE MAGIC STICK w. SHONEN KNIFE! *ALL AGES*
4120 Woodward Ave, Detroit, 48201-2027
Cost: $12
The all-female musical band Shonen Knife is a Japanese pop punk/garage rock band, who sing songs both in Japanese and English. Among their fans are Sonic Youth, Nirvana, Redd Kross, and Sultans of Ping. They cite as their main influences 1960s girl groups and punk rock such as The Ramones. They have also performed as a Ramones tribute band under the name The Osaka Ramones. The new album from Shonen Knife, "SUPER GROUP", was released in the U.S. on August 25th, 2009 on the Good Charamel Record Label. The album features 10 new songs (english versions), from the original Japanese release in 2008 and an extra bonus track! Amy Gore & Nikki Corvette’s brainchild GOREVETTE open the show with THE PIZAZZ and KOMMIE KILPATRICK. Get there early. This is an ALL AGES show!

Hanging with Cock Sparrer

Last weekend, October 10 & 11, I got to meet and hang out with my favorite band of all time, Cock Sparrer. It was an epic weekend of drinking and jackassery never to be forgotten.

The event was Riotfest in Chicago and although it was a 4 hour drive out there from Ann Arbor, it was well worth the time and gas spent. And shit, the band flew all the way from the UK so how could we complain about a 4 hour drive!

My friend Wendy and I were lucky enough to be put on Cock Sparrer's guest list for both nights, with VIP all access. On Saturday, October 10th, we went to the show at the Congress. Unfortunately we got there really late and only got to see one band, NOFX. They were okay, but I was bummed that we missed Cock Sparrer. We watched the show from the "VIP Skybox" which actually means that you are far as hell up and away from the stage. Although we hadn't gotten to see Cock Sparrer's performance, we stopped by to say hello to them and say thank you for putting us on. After that, we jetted over to Subterranean to see the Aggrolites play.

On Sunday night, October 11, we attended the show at the Metro. What a scene it was! Punks and skins from all over the midwest had flocked there for the event. This time, we arrived in plenty of time, and even had a chance to say hello and take a few pictures with Steve Bruce, the drummer, before the show. I didn't watch ALL the bands, I managed to catch a bit to the Lower Class Brats performance in between my beer binging, and they were really good. Then it was time for Cock Sparrer to take the stage. I have to admit, I was totally geeked. I watched the performance from back (side) stage and it was awesome to see everyone in the audience screaming along to all the songs. Cock Sparrer RAWKED the house. It was the best show I've ever been to in my life. Afterward, Wendy and I hung out in the dressing rooms and drank beer with the lads, Colin McFaull, Steve Bruce, Steve Burgess, Mickey Beaufoy, Daryl Smith and Will Murray.

What awesome, nice and down-to-Earth guys they were. We talked about football (UK) bands, our lives and families and just really very ordinary things. It was like we'd been mates for years. I challenged Colin McFaull to a darts match but sadly, it never happened. Every so often, some other fans would come back there asking for pictures and autographs and all the guys were incredibly gracious and cool. After the venue closed and everyone was tossed out, we hung around a bit longer drinking way too many beers, before proceeding to the afterparty.

The party at Exit was a great time too. All our friends who'd come from Michigan were able to meet the band as well. Of course at that point the night becomes a bit hazy for me but in my opinion, that's just a sign of a good time! The whole experience was awesome. I feel so blessed to have been able to meet those guys and owe Steve a huge debt of gratitude for hooking us up.

Cheers to the lads of Cock Sparrer, Colin McFaull - Vocals, Steve Burgess - Bass Guitar, Steve Bruce - Drums, Mickey Beaufoy - lead guitarist Daryl Smith-Guitarist and Will Murray - Road Manager, you're the best!

Slainte'! The Last Days of Summer September 1-5, 2009

The air has grown colder and the days shorter. The moment we've all been dreading is stumbling toward us...Oh, Summer, where have you gone?
This is it. The last week of Summer. So get out there, enjoy it while you can before school starts and Fall officially takes hold of your soul.
