K OF C HALL
1:00 AM DETROIT COBRAS
MIDNIGHT OCTOPUS
11:00 PM GOREVETTE
10:00 PM THE SUNDRESSES



This will be my 4th year at the Blowout. In the years past I have perfomed with Scott Morgan's Powertrane, Mitch Ryder, Gorevette, Mazinga and the 77'S. The Blowout is a super fun rock n roll weekend, however i always remember the blowout having really shity weather. I still wonder why they don't change the time of year for this event.
In 2008 i played @ Atlas Bar with Mazinga, The club was so packed that owner made us wait outside with our gear until we played, It was snowing hard at this point and we where cold and pissed off by the time we loaded in. We set up in record time and blasted through our set. Since it was "to packed" for the owner to let us in out of the cold Marc Mcfinn(Mazinga Singer) decided the stage and the club was to packed for him and used the bar as his stage(you can tell the owner is pleased in the pic).

There are so many good bands to see at this event and you just cant see them all, but here are a few of my recomendations. Chapstik, Detroit Cobra's, Blue Snaggletooth(Box Taylors band) and Black Irish.

Have fun out there
