Rock Lottery @ the Magic Stick: a Night in Photos

All in all it was a very entertaining night.  Many of the bands were very good, worked really well together and had a great sound to them; however, there were the bands that sounded just like what they were – a bunch of people playing together who are in actuality in other bands. Which lead to many awful covers, but also constant surprises and plenty of laughter.  Kudos to Virginia and the Magic Stick for pulling the night off . . . but next time get some new MCs (the worst ever). I for one had a good time. Check out the photos.

  • I looked and there is no jobs section. based on my experience I would like to inquire about the editor posisiton. I have references upon request, and brace yourself, they come from Ann Arbor, and all in all, they're pretty good.

    this post "lead" me to believe that Motor city rocks should maybe use an editor. Good photos though.
  • If you look in our jobs section, you will see that we have a posting for an Editor (our last one died in a kiln explosion.)

    Best band: Nick Cicchetti / Marcie Bolen/ Amado Movado / Mike Trombley. Highlight: when Cicchetti bolted off the stage during the final song to slam money down at the bar for four shots, to which the band toasted.

    Best cover: Loretta Lucas's band doing Heart's "Barracuda". Girl got pipes.

    Best self-referential band: 4 REAL. (Ryan Allen / Eddie Baranek / Andrew Hecker / Liz Isakson, get it?) First lyrics something to the effect of: "Last night I got in a fight with Ryan Allen 'cause he said my band sounded like Rage Against the Machine".

    Best (only?) band uniform: Also 4 REAL, with their giant letter patches.

    Strangest pairing with the best results: Alan Scheurman's vocals with Feeney's pedal steel.

    Clusterfuck: Kroha /
    Corey Weedon / Brandon White / Jeff Klien and at one point, Woodman... see above photo.

    A lot of the bands sounded really good. A very fun night. The MC's were great in that they were awful.
