Crud Celebrates “Devil at the Wheel” CD Re-release at TNT's on July 28
Detroit rock band Crud celebrates the highly anticipated international release of their debut CD “Devil at the Wheel” (Full Effect Records) on Saturday July 28 at TNT'sin Clinton Township. A bevy of cool local rock acts will open the show including: Cyber Trybe, Detroit Voodoo, Slaves to the Beautiful, All Signs Point to Nine, 13 Dead and Not to Be Found.

Crud's ten song “Devil at the Wheel” CD features the band's hit singles “Reality” and “Meat Detonation” (as heard on television shows “ER” and “CSI”) along with new songs - the tongue in cheek “Murder is Fun” and “Do Ya Wanna Touch” (Crud's twisted take on the Gary Glitter classic).

Fox Rocks Winner Announced and Questioned
Fox 2 Detroit just announced the winner of their My Fox Rocks battle of the bands. The Matt Austin Band has been chosen to open up for Def Leppard and Styx at DTE on Tuesday, July 24th. Austin beat out hundreds of local bands from the metro Detroit area including some of our favorites. Coincidentally (or not), it was also announced that The Matt Austin Band was chosen to compete in Simon Cowell's new Fox franchise "The Next Great American Band" - which leads this cynic to question the validity of the contest. I know there will probably be some "sour grapes" comments from the lucky winners, the Fox producers and even Austin's fans (we're certainly not saying they don't deserve the shot - sounds like a decent band), but do you believe the results of this particular contest were pre-determined as a local promotional vehicle for The Next Great American Band? Does it matter? Vote in our latest survey and please feel free to chime in with your comments below.

Interview: Radar Pilot's John Piasentin & Art Peitsch
In 2005, members from two of our favorite bands merged to form Radar Pilot. John Piasentin from the progressive group Space Nelson and Art Peitsh from Super Model-T found themselves bandless in 2005 and kicked around the idea of writing together. By early 2006 they'd penned almost a dozen new tracks and didn't have to look very far for a willing rhythm section; former bandmates Jeff Golzynski (Super Model-T) and Eric "Fish" Fischer (Space Nelson) were happy to oblige on bass and drums respectively. The result was, well, best described as two-parts Space Nelson and two-parts Super Model-T. We caught up with Art & John by e-mail a week before their upcoming gig at Smalls in Hamtramck.

flophouse writes:
FLOPHOUSE has just been added on to Eric Clapton's Crossroads Festival at Toyota Park in Chicago, IL on Saturday, July 28th. This is the real deal folks. The band has been hand-selected as the Featured Guitar Center winner of Ernie Ball's Battle of the Bands contest. The band just got the call from Brian Ball himself and Flophouse will be opening the show! If anyone is interested in attending the Crossroads Festival in Chicago, I know that it is "Sold out" but there are still a TON of tickets circulating on eBay for almost face value ($100). We'd love to see you all there!!

Luke Sayers Says: They Don't Want Me
Not cool enough for the Detroit music scene? Can't get invited to all the right parties or get to play at all the right clubs? Having difficulty getting those well-insulated Detroit rags to write about you or even take you seriously? Well you're in good company bandheads. Inspired by yet another night of playing to the backs of a crowd of uninterested musicians and bar staff, acoustic rootsman Luke Sayers penned a funky little number called, "They Don't Want Me" which is currently available for a free download at his website.

Royalty Hikes To Go Into Affect Monday: Your Immediate Action Required!
ATTENTION: Your immediate political action is required. On Wednesday, a federal court DENIED a plea for the delay of the massive hike in the royalty rates webcasters must pay record labels which will effectively put independent webcasters out of business. YOU need to contact your local congressional representatives TODAY and let them know that you're against this unfair rate that discriminates against the small webcasters who play YOUR music. Click "read more" below to read a letter from Pandora founder Tim Westergren. Links to past articles on MB about this very important subject are also included.
