The Stills Day 25, Detroit, MI

Ah, Detroit. The city I’ve heard so much about, been through so often, but never bothered to stop and check out. Now I know why.

 

The show itself was fine, big old theatre, interesting sound, etc…

 

The fun part was walking the streets after the show. We literally only walked around the block, and we had one guy rap to us for about half of the walk, telling us why he was better than 50 Cent, and another man bummed a smoke from our tour manager, complained about the taste and then proceeded to argue about whether it was worth the $7 a pack. Then, a street drummer set up right outside the door of the bus and has been drumming for the better part of the last 2 hours. This is one block. I won’t even attempt to figure out how many people asked me for change today. It’s been an experience. Hopefully it’ll be a while before the next one. And, with that, off we go towards Vancouver for the next show on Monday night…
