Roll out the red carpet for the White Stripes

Sorry for the delay in not posting more lately...but Shawn and Will rocked out in the Cass Corridor on Friday, September 30th and Saturday, October 1st over at the wonderful Masonic Temple. Good times and smiles were abound while we listened to the new blues revolution! After the sights and sounds we headed over to the Magic Stick and then to our favorite spot, The Bronx. All in all it was a great weekend and it was good to see Detroit's favorite 'brother/sister' duo back home.
