09/29/08 Troublemaker Tour Show 10: Detroit - Palace Of Auburn Hills

After a day off for travel and recharging in a quiet leafy suburb, we proceeded to the Palace of Auburn Hills for another dose of rock. Detroit brought out some serious pit action, the most crowdsurfing we've seen on this tour yet. These shows are getting better and better! Detroit also brought out none other than Scott Shriner's talented dad, who joined the hootenanny on saxophone and laid down the tastiest 'Beverly Hills' solo I think I or anyone in the band has ever heard! Nice!

Here are some pix from tonight's show (click on them to see them bigger)

RIVERS NEEDS YOUR STICKERS! Rivers needs to decorate his drum kit (the one on the side of the stage, not Pat's in the middle), and he wants stickers to do it. Years ago, you served my father in the Clone Wars; now - er, wait - I mean, years ago, Rivers asked for stickers for his guitar, and hundreds of you tossed envelopes loaded with crazy stickers onstage for days - his Stratocasters were quickly plastered! Can we count on you guys to come thru again? However you can get them to us works - if you see me, pass em over - if youre close to the stage, toss em up! Just write "Stickers for Rivers" on the envelope! Thanks people!

Special announcement! Fuse TV!
