Hip in Detroit's Picks for the Weekend: October 4-6

Friday, October 4th - Break Anchor @ The Parliament Room at Otus Supply: It has been over a year since Break Anchor has played a show. This Friday night, the beloved band will return to the stage at The Parliament Room at Otus Supply in Ferndale. Will it be for one night only? We sure hope not! Break Anchor will be joined by S.N.A.F.U., Pancho Villa's Skull and Take Weight. Cover is $12 and 18+ are welcome. Doors open at 8:30 p.m. 

Saturday, October 5th - Detroit Dogventures: The shelter at Detroit Animal Care and Control reaches capacity monthly. There are always over a hundred dogs in their care, either at their facilities or in foster homes. And, although Michigan is considered a no-kill state because of the low euthanasia rates across the state, that doesn't mean that all shelters are no-kill (hopefully, you get our drift). If you can't adopt a pet at this time, you can still help the DACC by fostering, doing a sleepover with a dog, or by taking a dog out during Detroit Dogventures. This Saturday, head to DACC and the Friends of DACC will set you up with a dog to take out on the town for the day. The Friends have paired with Detroit area businesses to set up dog-friendly locations to take the dogs on field trips for the day. Make the day for one of these dogs, and hopefully someone you cross paths with will go adopt him or her after seeing them out and about! The event runs from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and the DACC building is located on the I-75 service drive at 7401 Chrysler Drive (in the old Michigan Humane Society Building). 

Saturday, October 5th - Nightmare @ The Senate: This Saturday, watch two nightmarish movies at the Senate Theater for Nightmare at The Senate. At 4 p.m., watch the classic Tim Burton film, The Nightmare Before Christmas. Then, at night things get a bit scarier with A Nightmare on Elm Street at 8 p.m. Tickets are only $5 for each show and can be purchased here. 

Saturday, October 5th - Devious Ones Record Release & 100th Show @ Outer Limits Lounge: Saturday night, Devious Ones will be celebrating the release of their new 45 and it just so happens to be their 100th show too! The band will be performing at Outer Limits Lounge in Hamtramck along with Indonesian Junk and Toeheads. Cover is only $8, doors open at 8 p.m. and 21+ are welcome. Give the new tunes a listen here.

Sunday, October 6th - Face to Face and Lagwagon @ St. Andrew's Hall: Wrap up your weekend with a great show, when Face to Face and Lagwagon hit the stage at St. Andrew's Hall. The two bands just kicked off their tour together last week. They will also be joined by MakeWar. Tickets are $29.50 and can be purchased in advance here. Doors are set to open at 6:30 p.m. and all ages are welcome.
