All By Ourselves

On the flip side of Detroit music, this weekend has a pretty freakin' big event to offer. Friday night, at the Magic Stick, there will be a show titled the Detroit Rock n Roll Revival. The show is a benefit for Isaac 'Marty' Morris, the singer/guitarist from local band the Cyril Lords. Marty was hospitalized recently, but he's doing better now, unfortunately, musicians still don't get any kind of health insurance, so he's hurtin', ya know? The show is also benefitting Scott from the Grande Nationals. A few weeks ago, he was attacked and mugged while leaving Alvin's in the Cass Corridor after a show. I know, you're waitin' with baited breath. Here's the lineup: THE HENTCHMEN, THE SIGHTS, FAITH GAZIC (of TERROR AT THE OPERA), THE GO, ESQUIRE, and BACK IN SPADES. Yeah, all of those bands. Cover is $10 (more if you're able, this is a benefit, remember?), doors are at 9pm. I think I can guarantee that this show will sell out, and the Magic Stick will be packed to it's 500-or-so capacity. Be there.
