Happy Birthday Toepfer House!

Toepfer House in Warren is one of my favorite venues in the area. Granted, it is literally a house that a few punk rock kids live in and have shows at, but it is also one of the most fun places to catch a live show. At Toepfer House you don't need to worry about paying for parking, $9 beers, mean or pushy security guards, or any of the other issues that can come along with going to bigger shows at corporate venues.

Believe it or not this venue is celebrating its two year anniversary this Friday. They are doing it up right and having an anniversary show to celebrate. The lineup will feature Live it Out, Break Anchor, Cheapshow, Fires in Japan and Due North. The best part is that this show is free and all ages are welcome. They will have a keg for people of drinking age, a cup to drink can be purchased for a few dollars at the show. Vince, a Toepfer House resident, will also be cutting mohawks for $2 a pop and they have a gift basket to raffle off that includes prizes from Hip in Detroit, Vile Co. and Division Tattoos. They are taking donations and offering this gift basket as a way to raise money to buy a PA system for the house. Doors are at 8 p.m. and Toepfer House is located at 8741 Toepfer in Warren. We wish Toepfer House a happy birthday and hope they continue to be a venue for years to come!
