Second Best Band in Detroit? Posted on: 08-30-2006 @ 11:32 pm |

| Interesting News from the Free Beer Compound:
Apparently, a few people think that Free Beer is a pretty good band. Good enough, we figure, to write our name down on a ballot. It appears that enough people did this writing-Free-Beer-on-a-ballot-thing that it resulted in Free Beer being voted 2nd Place Best Local Band in The Detroit News. now, if you cant believe it either...here's the link... http://detnews.com/michigansbest/2006/entertainmentpotpourri.htm
We're telling you this for two reasons. 1) While we're confident that we dont suck as a band, We're pretty sure that we're not the second best band in Detroit. The members of Free Beer are nothing if not realists and we know that we are entertaining and good for a laugh or 3 (sometimes at our OWN expense). We're just concerned that expectations might fly a little too high and you might start think that we're only slightly less talented than those hacks, The Beatles who didn't even place in the top three. It's not important that they're not from Detroit, or still even "band", I just liked the phrase "...those hacks The Beatles...".
My point is; Be Realistic. If we were great, you'd hear about us playing the Fox theatre, not in your backyard! Free Beer has always exceeded expectations, but an accolade like this could lead you to expect more from us.
And that would be bad. And the second reason I'm rambling on is You should plan to see us sometime soon like maybe on September 22 at Hermann's Olde Towne Grille in Plymouth! www.freebeernet.com for more details.
Remember, Free Beer is a good, entertaining, hard working band - - that some people (not us) consider the second best band in Detroit. |
