TODAY IN ROCK & ROLL
Over at AMG, Stephen Thomas Erlewine takes a look a the Great Lakes Myth Society album. You can catch their record release show at Jacoby’s on April 9. A release date of June 14 has been set for the White Stripes fifth studio album. The Brendan Benson record weighs in at 7.2 on the Richter scale.
Meanwhile, these two girl scout troups could use a lesson in rock n’ roll if any of you Detroiters are up for the challenge. How about you, Bobby Harlow?
Finally, Lester Bangs will be sipping scotch at the end of the bar for the Paybacks at the Blind Pig on Friday along with Porchsleeper and The Riots. If you miss the Sleeper that night, you’ve got another chance to get Drunk Again with them on Saturday @ Jacoby’s along with MCR favs The Prime Ministers and The Flouride Program.
