If you missed the Motorcity Special#2 a few Saturdays back you really missed a great show that rocked and socked like a robot ....killer sets by all the bands and a fun flow of people in and out of the Pike Room all night long. After the show I split for a nice little MCB Vacationcito all last week and have just had the chance to get these photos up and posted....there was some video taken and will be posted later tonight as well from MCS2
With each Motorcity Special event acting as a record release as well as a live recording show there are a lot of details that need to be squared away and I can't say its been easy to put this together without feeling the stress on our back. We have been fairly aggressive in our schedule and I hope we can keep the momentum going after such an amazing night of great music and friends. Thanks to all who came to the MCS and didn't have a problem with the "NO GUEST LIST" - also those who picked up and purchased MCS#1 and pre-purchased MCS#2. We will not be selling these records online. There are only a few left from each show and they will be distributed very soon to local record stores as we continue to support the local scene.
Massive thank you goes out to the fine folks at the Crofoot who built the Phonotropic Summer BBQ around our event and provided us with every ounce of support available.
Huge thanks to bands The Jesus Chainsaw Massacre, Marco Polio & The New Vaccines, WOLFBAIT, The Beggars and Black Lodge plus Stanley T Madhatter, Loco Jeff and DJs CARJACK & Milo for kicking out the jams. Look for the record release party in mid October.
Also I tend to gloss over thanking the people from MCB who support me and this project without a second thought. Dan Sultana, Kevin Soney and Moneypenny each had the camera going all night. Of course my girls get a pat on the ass - Amy Palomar, RebeccaMich, Amy Gutz and DCinDetroit - these chicks rule and I can't thank them each enough for watching my back and making/taking their own lanes.
