In Detroit, we take pride in music and local musicians! I have always enjoyed live music in Detroit and lucky for me, there are a lot of venues in Detroit to see great shows. We have venues of all sizes. We have venues that are in historic theaters, great little hole-in-the-wall dives, large capacity venues like The Palace (outside Detroit), concerts are even hosted at Comerica Park, The Hard Rock Cafe Detroit, and a host of other staples hosting musical acts. Some of the old staples are Paychecks, Harpo's, St. Andrews Hall and The Majestic.
An event that is coming up in early march, The Blowout, will showcase both the array of talented musicians in Detroit and a variety of venues that support the local music scene. This is a great event for the city and the area. This event is centered in Hamtramck where the nightlife will flow out onto the streets for several days in celebration of our vibrant music scene. Early March in Detroit would still be a time to find the streets a little quiet since the weather is still unfavorable but this is not the case during Blowout. The streets of Hamtramck will be packed with people milling between shows at different venues.
Check out the schedule and plan to catch some great local music! Metro Times - Blowout 2011: Schedule
