Win Tickets to the 2015 Metro Times Blowout

Next week the 18th annual Metro Times Blowout will take over Detroit, Ferndale and Hamtramck and this year they are going for bigger and better than ever. The Blowout has become legendary over the years. Playing a solid set at Blowout can get your name out and increase your fan base really quickly. Every band in Detroit has played the Blowout at some point and usually has a great story to share about their experience.

The event has expanded to four full nights of music throughout three cities. Everything has changed and become bigger except for the price. Somehow it is only $20 for a wristband that gets you into all 20 venues to see all the bands that are playing throughout the weekend. This year they have mixed locals like Blaire Alise and the BombshellsFlint EastwoodRadio BurnsThe HandGrenades, James LinckLittle Animal, and Valley Hush with bigger names like Andrew W.K.The Black Lips, PUP, Perfect Pussy, and Fucked Up. There are bands of every genre being represented. This year's venues include Baker Streetcar Bar, The Burns Room, Fowling Warehouse, Garden Bowl, The Huma Room at Hopcat, Jumbos. The Loving Touch, Majestic Cafe, New Dodge. Painted Lady, Paychecks, Plav Post 10, Rust Belt Market, St. Andrew's Hall, 7Brothers. The Shelter, Smalls, W.A.B., Wiskey in the Jar, and Zeke's Rock and Roll BBQ. You can see the full lineup and schedule of bands here.
