Detroit. Each Thursday in February TWO bands that appear on the
"Shiftless Decay: New Sounds of Detroit" compilation will play TWO sets
each for FREE. NO COVER. Tonight kicks off with Frustrations and The
Mahonies. Here is the lineup for the rest of the month:

Tonight- Thursday, February 5 - Frustrations, The Mahonies

Thursday, February 12 - Tyvek, Johnny Ill Band

Thursday, February 19 - Human Eye, Heroes & Villains

Thursday, February 26 - Terrible Twos, Fontana

All the shows are free in an effort to get the compilation into as many
hands as possible. So scrape up a few bucks, pick up a copy, and enjoy
some free music every Thursday of the month.
