January 18, 2014: The Loving Touch, Ferndale, Michigan

Another fantastic evening spent with great local music at The Loving Touch.

First up was DL Rossi, which was the only act I didn’t get a chance to check out before the show. His Guitar driven anthems about breakups, religion,...

January 10, 2014: The Crofoot, Pontiac, Michigan

After a long and frustrating day the last thing I wanted to do was go to a concert. All I really wanted was to curl up in bed and watch an awesomely bad movie but I reminded myself that no matter how exhausted I was, this concert would be...
