It's really not bad. I like the small venues for bands that were around when I was a teenager. I saw Cheap trick at the Manistee Casino a while back. Thought they sounded good. I saw J.Geils Band at Ford Field a few years back, thought they sounded bad. As bands get older, they can't play big venues like they did when we were young.
I think it was about 5 or 6 years ago. Side story, my buddy from high school's wife is the entertainment coordinator for the casino. Cheap Trick had some bizarre requests. Separate rooms for each person in the band. 4 brand new Kurig coffee machines, in the box. One wanted smoked fish, or some weid shit, one wanted a specific candy. Crazy stuff.

Social Distortion, who I have become a big fan of this year after discovering them a quarter century too late, is coming to Freedom Hill on 9/6 with Flogging Molly. Might be my first concert in a few years.

The Menzingers in Detroit Sunday night.....
lookin' forward to being the oldest dude there and remaining firmly along the edge of crowd surfers.
(sweet video, by the way... makes the memory of a highly dysfunctional, youthful relationship almost look like fun).

Bob going to the magic stick. Not really sure, but the kid and her boyfriend said something or some such and I think they said midtown Sunday night so they couldn't do dinner with us, but I, as usual ,only half paid attention. No idea. There is a ton of shit going on down there now, maybe that's it. I really don't know.

Welcome to my world. I don't know. Just when I read this, it rang a bell, and I know she's going downtown. I"ll ask her if this is the reason why. I swear she said to my wife "Her and ***** would be at the magic stick." I wojuld not bet the house on it. I know she's going downtown sunday for something. She's sleeping, if I remember, I'll as her.

cool - it'll be a good time. Great band, lots of energy. When I'm at that sort of show, I tend to stay off to the side or to the back. Gets a little crazy up front and I don't really feel like taking a foot to the jaw.DWags wrote:Robert J Sakimano wrote: I'm confused.

Holy shit Bob, I open up my email and StubHub tells me I can get Menzinger tickets with a few taps. WTF?? Don’t tell me we aren’t under surveillance. I’ve never showed an interest to any band on stubhub except Seger. Now, we talk about this here and StubHub write me an email on them?? Actually frightening. I’ve only got emails from StubHub regarding sports.

She was a the wings game. See I knew it was something. I swear she said mid town or magic stick. Her boyfriend took her to the wings game. I’m fairly sure they hung out down there after. I’m not the most attentive father in the world. That’s probably bad. I hope the show was good.

Re: Live Music in Michigan.. Info, Tours, Reviews..
saw Isbell and the guys this past Sunday in Saginaw. Such a beautiful venue (Temple Theater) and the band sounded great.. played both "Elephant" and "If We Were Vampires" - both tug at the heart strings but, man, "Vampires" tears me up.
great line from "Elephant": "surrounded by her family, I saw that she was dying alone"....
next up, Springsteen at LCA next month.

grabbed tickets for Drive By Truckers and American Aquarium in Grand Rapids in September.
Gonna be a sweet show. I've seen both bands plenty of times as headliners, so to see them both on the same bill is pretty epic. Great group of dudes, too.

Offspring last week. It was fun. They had video between the bands, interactive stuff... it was fun. Guitarist was fun during the show too. Wasn't knowing what to expect, but it was good.
Beck/Pheonix next weekend.
Has the place in Lansing opened yet?
Also, when I dropped the kid at WMU went to Bells for dinner... turns out we missed one of my (and the kids) favorite bands by a week... the show wasn't on the spotify alert or any "shows near you" things I get... so irritating. Would have been awesome in that venue.

good little venue. Saw Trampled By Turtles there a handful of summers ago.
the place in Lansing isn't open yet (though it might be, I'm not 100% sure). Kinda sucks, as The Menzingers, one of my favorite bands, were scheduled to be there in early August. Their tour manager is part owner of the venue. I suspect he'll get them there soon.

They are/were? the opening act for The National recently... wasn't expecting them to be around for a while.

American Aquarium and Drive By Truckers tonight in GR.
Two bands I've seen multiple times as headliners touring together. Probably gonna hang at Stella's beforehand if any of y'all happen to be in the neighborhood.
