Win Tickets to Blackout BBQ Unplugged

For the past two summers Black Iris Booking has been bringing some of the best names in the scene together for a day of music and BBQ at the Majestic Complex. Well this year Blackout BBQ is headed to a different venue and changing things up a bit. We all know that Zeke's Rock & Roll BBQ has some of the best barbecue in town. So why not bring the party to them? That's exactly what BIB plans to do.

This Sunday, August 28th Black Iris Booking will be holding their annual Blackout BBQ at Zeke's. Since the venue is a bit smaller than the Majestic Complex, so is he bill. The bookers decided to have an "unplugged" BBQ this year and will be bringing Kevin Seconds, Steve Soto and John Speck to the stage. You probably know Kevin Seconds from the hardcore punk band 7Seconds and Steve Soto from Agent Orange and The Adolescents. And if you don't know John Speck's name by now, you should. He's been in bands like The Fags, Hifi Handgrenades, and he's been playing solo for quite a while. These three guys are going to calm things down a bit, grab their acoustic guitars, and play some of their tunes in a slightly more mellow way than you're used to. They will also be sharing stories from throughout their careers and lives. It should be an amazing night and an intimate experience that you won't want to miss!

Tickets for Blackout BBQ Unplugged are $12 in advance or $15 the day of the show. You can pick your tickets up online here. Thanks to the lovely ladies at Black Iris Booking, we are also giving away a pair of tickets to this awesome show. If you would like to enter to win these tickets, please send your full name to hipindetroit@gmail.com with BBQ in the subject line. We will draw one lucky winner the morning of the show and they will get in with a friend for free.

Good luck!
