Win Tickets to Trick Trick!!!

A few months ago we had the opportunity to give away a couple pairs of tickets to see Trick Trick playing in his hometown of Detroit. He's coming back around for another preformance and we have a couple more pairs of tickets to give away to our readers.

Christian Mathis, better known as Trick Trick, shot into fame in the early 90s when he signed his first record deal with Click Click's label, Click Boom Records. He became well known for his associations with the Goon Squad and has put out music with artists like Eminem, D12, and Obie Trice.

He will be performing on October 24th at The Majestic Theatre at 8 p.m., but we have to put up this giveaway a little early so we have time to mail you the tickets. To enter please send your full name and address to hipindetroit@gmail.com. We will email the winners when we draw them and let them know to expect a package in the mail. Good luck and thank you to Embarco Entertainment for this giveaway.

Win Tickets to see Trick Trick!

Next week, Detroit legend Trick Trick is playing at the Magic Stick. Embarco Entertainment and Right Way Auto are bringing him to the stage to play with a live band in his home city May 9th at 8:30 p.m.

Trick Trick has always been comfortable at the center of controversy. His personal life has been as well documented as his music. He has toured with Eminem and and is the President of Wonderboy Entertainment. Despite the controversy, he was able to make quite a name for himself. He is as entertaining off stage as he is on stage.

Tickets for this event are $10 in advance and $15 at the door. We are giving away two sets of tickets for this event. To enter, just email your full name to hipindetroit@gmail.com with the subject line 'I Want To See Trick rick. We will email the winners the day of the show and their name will be on the guest list plus one.

Motors & Music

Fresh off the heels of the infamous Dirt Fest at Birch Run, the Metro Detroit area will host a new festival for the first time this year called Motors and Music. This is a festival created by the same man who brought you Dirt Fest, Matt Dalton. Taking his knowledge of festivals and what people want to do and hear, he has created a new event dedicated to music and cars, two things we love here in the Motor City.

The festival will take Place August 18 in the parking lot of the Pontiac Silverdome, which was once the play place of the Detroit Lions. This event features music from a wide array of acts including Stone Temple Pilots, Ice T and Coco, the return of Chiodos, Trick Trick, Hush, Mayer Hawthorne, The High Strung and even a DJ set by Dominic Raiola (Detroit Lions). They will also have a car show and other acts including performers from the Detroit Circus. Basically, this won’t just be a concert, but it will be a full day of drinking, eating, music, cars and fun!

The whole event kicks off at 11 a.m. and tickets are only $35 for general admission for the day. Ballers who want to have an even more intense experience can purchase VIP tickets that include a designated seat close to the stage and your own private bar to drink at with little to no lines throughout the day!
