All Ages (21+ for booze)
@ Tenacity Brewing
119 N Grand Traverse St, Flint, MI 48503
*** Advance "Tickets" are done via venmo to avoid all the service fees and ticketmaster/ clear channel garbage that's destroying the music industry. Venmo $12 to @thewriteups and put your name and how many people you want and which show it's for on the list. So $48 and "John McFlinstone +3 - Tenacity Brewing 10/12" would be fine, or you can put individual names. *** IF there is still room on the day of show, we will do $15 at the door for remaining slots. It's a small room, and it'll be busy.
MakeWar are a Brooklyn, NY based punk trio with all members originating in Venezuela & Colombia. They have been playing a gruff variety of indie punk rock for fans of Jawbreaker, Hot Water Music, The Flatliners, The Replacements, Foo Fighters, & Hüsker Dü for the past decade, which has taken them around Europe, North & South America many times. Their long-time tour manager/ driver/ road dog is from Michigan, so he convinced them to come do a run in the Great Lakes for a long weekend.
The new MakeWar album, A Paradoxical Theory of Change, dropped on Fat Wreck Chords on June 28th and is available everywhere now. www.makewarmusic.com
The Write-Ups are a Flint Michigan based soundtrack to 5 guys having a midlife crisis. They play fun and super danceable songs about really depressing things like poisoned children, police brutality, death, addiction, and lack of political accountability. Ska for people who hate ska. www.hyperfollow.com/thewriteups
Rodeo Boys: On their Don Giovanni debut, Home Movies, Rodeo Boys are upping the ante. Their music owes as much to the twang of country as it does to the fuzz of grunge, and it’s a winning combination.
Lead single “Sugar” sits somewhere between Bully and SPICE, a gritty slice of feedback-drenched rock ‘n’ roll that immediately makes it clear where Rodeo Boys’ passions lie–in loud, crunchy, catchy alt rock. “Dog Leg” plays out like a supersized take on classic rock, all roaring solos and guttural hooks, and epic closer “Tomboy Radio” is a proggy masterclass in dynamics.
Home Movies hardly lets up all through its 40 minutes, the space folk of “Hail Mary” allowing a couple minutes to breathe, but it all seems to zip by. Vocalist Tiff Hannay says Rodeo Boys’ goal as a queer blue-collar band is “to give a voice to young queer people in small towns,” and what a powerful voice it is. https://linktr.ee/RodeoBoys
Tip your bartenders, don't fight or break anything, support touring bands, support businesses that support the music scene.
No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, etc. Be excellent to each other
