 MB Welcomes The Whiskey Rhythm Band
I don't know about you bandheads out there, but when I was gigging regularly I couldn't get my groove on without '...a taste born of hoary nights....the boldly flavorful yet surprisingly smooth spirit of Yukon Jack...' - or Southern Comfort, or Jeigermeister, or some other type of flammable liquer that was both sweet and dangerous when consumed in large quantities.  Whiskey Rhythm is both the perfect description for that subtle state between stiff sobriety and alcoholic meltdown and our latest band-link submission in the Cover Bands / Classic Rock category.  This Battle Creek quartet also play a fair amount of blues, so they can re-submit their link in our Cover Bands  / Blues category as well.  If you're lost in southern Michigan sometime or just need a stiff drink before you go to Ohio, look 'em up.  For now, click "read more" below for the link.

 Badynee's Bogdon Bass In The Freep
Bogdon Box BassChris Badynee's Bogdon Box Bass has made the news again, this time right here at  home in The Freep.  The local musician/inventor has been peddling his wares in every available media outlet, including Bass Player Magazine, Good Morning America, on the Dwight Yokum tour with Jake Willemain,  at the N.A.M.M. show out west and soon at the N.A.M.M show down in Nashville.  According to The Freep he's already unloaded 500 of the cardboard contraptions at $99 bucks a pop via mail-order and more are selling all the time.  Not a bad segue from his life as a sideman for The Purple Gang, The Cadillac Kidz, Pas/Cal, Skeleton Crew, Laffing Gas and many others.

 Emergenza Showcase Review by Severance
-severance- writes

"Emergenza is a annual musical showcase that claims to be searching for the best unsigned band in the world. They talk a big game and even look legit on face value. You submit a $70 fee to get in and they come back and supply you with strings and drum sticks. It's a showcase that is sponsored by Sony, Mapex, D'addario etc.. With bands competing in over 20 different nations for the "chance" to play in front of record label A&Rs

The problem a lot of bands had with the competition and I'm speaking on behalf of Severance, This Last Breath and Stereotipikal (all Detroit finalists) - Emergenza failed to live up to what it originally set out to do. First, they set ridiculous ticket prices, $15 a ticket. They kept all the money from ticket sales for themselves - not paying a single band for crowd they brought in or their performances. We're talking about pocketing a good $5000+ per show. Emergenza also did not promote the show in any way shape or form. Hell, bands had to even pay to get into the parking lot for their own show!
