The Live Review

Day One of the Detour Launch Party
Magic Stick/Garden Bowl
September 20th

well, after a few days of trying to do a blog sight and a few days in doing a side job, this blog sight is a little bit out of wack so i have not done anything on the blog sight including finish the dally in the alley story from almost two weeks ago and still recover from the Rilo Kiely show back on Monday, so since i do a blog sight on a almost daily based, i was thinking why not why not go to gig at the home base of indie rock[No disrespect to the folks at the Crofoot, but i will go to it one day] to celebrate the launch of a new blog sight that have been up since June called Detour Magazine

Now Detour is a local Base on-line zine that fouce on underground indie pop culture that look at music, movie, TV and not only that do live reviews of shows in the detroit area and sometime they do odd ball stuff like Tv Show into.

and this is now rookie blogger here most ot the staff at Detour used to work at the metro times, including Anthony Morrow[Publisher]and the one and only Johnny Loftus[Critic-at-Large]so why not let every body know about the sight by take a page out the metro times notebook and do a Three day party at the stick complex with all the best band from inside there 313 and out side the 313.

Now since i stay home to watch the return of Keith Olbermann[who miss half of this week recovering for a Burst appendix last weekend, don't worried he OK] and i left the house at 9 P.M. and did not arrived at the stick until 10:00 PM so i miss the first band of the night[Child Bite], i spend almost 15 minutes catching up with people i have not see in a wield.

So i went down stairs at the Garden Bowl where they have a small stage next to the bowling alley and i saw the first band of the night the Noise bands "Heroes & Villains" and i got to tell you it was loud i have to go to the restroom to put on my earplug, because that was noised that remind you of "Sonic Youth" they have a good old film in the background it was beautiful nosic at it best.

The Next band that i have not seen in a wheild because of other project the one and only "The Sights" and they was very good after the long lay-off as the band of the one and only Eddie Baranek, Bobby Emmett and Current drummer Rick Fox and there were good the only song i can reconge for that set was "I'm Gonna Live The Life I sing About In My Song" From the last C.D. but there was good.

I went back down Siarts back the Garden Bowl and check out a Drum and programmable set from "Deastro" and he was really good as Randy Chabot who is the madman behind "Deastro" as he Play Drums and program the backing tracks and not onyl that also sing and and it was a very good set that was watch by me, Japer, the Web Vomit guy, and the Editor of Fivethreedialtone guy, yes folks three well know blogger all in the same room at the same time as all three was moving out of the way as they move around form the care to the bar and to the stick and not only that meting some friend and a cool Friend who she used to live in hamtramck and her name is Alex i just want to say hi Alex.

But it did get real Crazy back in the stick, Oh yes it did get crazy at the stick as a kid from Milwaukee called Juiceboxxx as i listen to the First few beat and the few 1st words i say to myself oh my god i would not like this i go down sitars and check out the midnight band at Garden Bowl["Odd Clouds"] but this kid have some talent he did not stay on the stage he was moving around the Stage outside the stage as he was scearming dancing around all over the stick, not only that he was dancing table he even climb both Speakers as he seaming raps all night long i never have this much fun folling the action since the Woggles did a fanatic show at smalls 2004 and that too was a fun and Crazy show as well.

he let me tell you that kid have some heavy talent big time.

after seeing what was a 20-minutes of nutty Sceamo Rap, i went back down stairs to see the local sonic Nosie band "Odd Clouds who had a very special guest mr. every thing in Detroit Music the one and only Mattew Smith and he Join in the Sonic Adventher that is Odd Clouds, and they was very loud and smooth for the 20 Mintues i saw them as they seard there way to the crowd at the stick.

But, i went back upstairs and if you think Juiceboxxx was the warm up, well Bonde Do Role was one crazy party, the Hip Pop funk pop band from all away from Brazil was so much fun to watch as DJ Rodrigo Gorky provide all the all the spin to lead singers and M.C. Pedro D'Eyrot and Marina Vello to have some fun and get the crown into it and i go to tell the female voice of the band is one of the most Petty ladie to see rock out at the Stick so far as she jump around even pulling a member of the audience on stage for a little sing-along and yes she did go in to the crowd to dance to the crowd not and only that sing up close to one member of the and i was so close to the action.

So over all it was a good show all around a little bit of home, a little bit of Crazy rap, a little noise to your life and to wrap it up a little rock n roll
wow it a good time worth wring about on Detour!
