I wasn't planning to have a new news post today, but it's amazing how rapidly some big news falls into place, so I felt I should slap one together! In that regard, don't forget my Defunct Local Band Profiles on From The Ashes Of Angels and TraynWreck from this morning, especially if you're from the Sault Michigan area! So today, we have a cool new audio clip from a local band, some updates to one of our monthly feature posts, and kicking things off, two SHORT NOTICE LOCAL CONCERT ALERTS, so here's what you need to know!!
Caveman Morrison frontman
Tym Morrison is indeed back at Service Grill Pizza TODAY! After a one week absence for a St. Joseph Island concert, Tym's back at the Korah Road restaurant today for two sets after he returns from his set this afternoon at
The Searchmont Music Festival, and apologies for the short notice, Tym only announced this show earlier today. Also to note,
the Facebook event page still says that he's there "every Saturday", so it looks like his weekly summer arrangement there has been extended into at least one fall month! With the Searchmont gig, his usual times at the Service Grill are slightly amended, as he'll now be hitting the stage a bit later at 4:30 PM, with a second set likely to start around 8:00 PM tonight. There's no announced cover charge, and I don't believe there's an age restriction. Check the above links for more details! Sounds good, hopefully Tym knocks it out of the park tonight, even if it's short notice! Remember to go see him TODAY, and for a preview, here's Tym (and a special guest) covering Extreme's "More Than Words" a few years ago!
Meanwhile, Sault Michigan hard rock trio
Scofflaw will return to the local stage TONIGHT for a set at
The Merchant's Bar! The popular band featuring singer/guitarist Jeff Barnes, Bucksaw bassist Barney Gravelle, and
PowerSlug drummer Ivan Schliska will make their first
advertised local concert appearance since
LemmaFest when they rock The Merch for a night of drunken metal originals! They're a fun band and well worth hitting up shows for, but hearing them announced in advance is nice, so it's good to finally be able to plug a concert of theirs on here! That said, it's still short notice for the announcement, and I apologize for that. They'll be on at 10:00 PM tonight, you must be 21 to attend, and there's no announced cover charge. For more details,
click here! If you like and miss Scofflaw, you'll wanna be at The Merchant's Bar TONIGHT, so don't miss it if you're across the river! For a preview, here's Scofflaw playing their original song "Love Destroyer" at a 2008 jam session!
Thirdly today, I received a cool new audio track from
Sneaky Pete frontman Bill Brouillard that I'd like to share with you guys! Yesterday, Bill e-mailed me an mp3 file of the band covering both Ozzy Osbourne's "Crazy Train" and Judas Priest's "You've Got Another Thing Comin'" into a mashup that they call "Another Crazy Thing Comin'", and I decided to post it on
The Sault Metal Scene's YouTube channel to show to the world! It basically starts as a "Crazy Train" cover, then segues into Judas Priest, then closes with the "Crazy Train" cover's last portion, resulting in over 10 minutes of hard rocking! The band sounds good, this is probably the best quality audio I've heard of theirs, and though the vocals aren't as rangy, there's added grit and heaviness to them, so it all works out! So enjoy this Sneaky Pete cover mashup, and hopefully it encourages you to check them out at their next live concerts! Give "Another Crazy Thing Comin'" a listen!
And finally, I've updated the info on a few of the profiles in our Defunct Local Band Profile Series & our GarageBand Profile Mini-Series to keep them more accurate, so here's what's changed! I've updated both the
M7K and
Death Rise defunct profiles to add references to Mike Vincent and Adam Brett's current band
The Dead Kings, and slightly downplay the now-defunct
Skull After Betrayl. I updated the
Life's Eclipse* profile to refer to frontman Jason Mills' work in
Swampghas, and to note that both he and and his brother, bassist David Mills, share vocal duties in the band. Finally for the defunct profiles, I edited the
State of Misery* profile to mention that guitarist Ray Cowan was in the local band The Unforgiven, a band he won "Best Guitarist" at the 2008
Case's Music Battle of the Bands with. As for the GarageBand Profile Mini-Series, I edited the
Sin Stereo profile to change the references to the members' later band
Stiffler's Mom, as they broke up earlier this year. Lastly, I edited the
Gates of Winter profile to condense things a tiny bit (mostly in the notes on their drummers), and I added references to my reviews of their two released CDs in lieu of substantial song critiquing in that profile. Check the above links for each of the updated profiles in those two monthly feature series!
That's all for today, but stay tuned for more news soon, and in case anything doesn't go up tomorrow, pay your respects tomorrow on the 10th anniversary of 9/11, and never forget. Thanks everyone!
