Madman Mike's Bar Persona
PARTY WITH YOUR MUSICAL SLAVE
PARTY CREW NIGHTS and CHECKING OUT BANDS
in and around Metro Detroit, MI USA.   Updated October 18, 2009

We dare to see bands we haven't seen before.
We dare to check out places we haven't been to before.
We enjoy meeting people we haven't met before.
Good music plus a little drinkin' and dancin' is a good thing!
Join The Party Crew and you'll get e-mails of when and where.


Upcoming Music Slavin'. dates, places, info.
next: TBA. but beware... it's been awhile since the last one and The Madman is getting ready to bust loose with some "party time" live music hoppin'! get on party crew e-mail list to automatically be notified of when and where.

Mike did check out bands at the Arts, Beats & Eats Festival and Detroit Jazz Festival, but didn't have a set schedule where the party crew knew when and where he would be. No e-mail notifications because there were too many bands, too many stages, wouldn't stay at one stage long enough for people to catch up with him.






Two Examples of Previous Nights...

April 17, 2009: attended the Detroit Music Awards 2009 at The Fillmore Detroit.

March 4-7, 2009: Metro Times Blowout - 12th Annual
Had a blast! We got to choose from 200 Bands, 15 Venues, all local music. Started with the wednesday pre-party bash at the Majestic complex in Detroit then continued with the following nights in Hamtramck.


Murphy's Law or If It Weren't For Bad Luck...
Think it's easy being a music slave?
8+ inches snowstorm on Dec 19, 2008, then 50+ mile winds the next weekend, then New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, then a 4-8+ inches snowstorm on Jan 9th & 10th that started fri afternoon and lasted till early sat night. Fri Jan 16th had a below zero temperature, the 17th had around 6 inches of more snow. At least the final two nights of Ferndale Blues Fest in Jan was tolerable!

Then... Saturday Feb 21st: had around 5" of snow.

Then... Saturday March 7th: had heavy rain with thunderstorms on last night of Blowout 12. What's with all the nasty weather on Saturdays?

Then... Saturday March 28th: forecast is for heavy rain at night. Spent a ton of money at Blowout 12 then St. Patrick's Day then at some deserving charity fundraisers. Finally get some extra bucks to see bands again but another nasty weather Saturday night?!


In Spite Of...
Jan 17, 2009 - even with 6+ inches of snow that day, Mike checked out the Redford Station Band

Jan 31, 2009 - during 8th Annual Ferndale Blues Festival, Mike was at Dino's to see The Reefermen who play party rockin' blues - the fun stuff.

What Is Madman Mike's Party Crew?

It's a growing group of people having fun checking out various local music entertainers and music venues in the Metro Detroit area. We have a variety of musical tastes, budgets, ages, available nights. Party Crew is all about a good time. There is no formal membership, no dues, no commitments, just show up and party when the nights are right for you.
And with Madman Mike there, who knows what might happen?!!

Mike's "Party Crew Nights and Checking Out Bands" are posted for all to see so people can have a great excuse to converge at one place, start a party, and have an outstanding good time experiencing our incredibly talented local musicians and entertainers.

To automatically receive notifications of upcoming Party Crew Nights, get on the Party Crew E-mail List. Click Party Crew E-Mail which opens a new e-mail message. Also click that to send your Blowout 12 Info, nothing to join. If using that link to send your Blowout 12 "starting this night at..." info, state the night & venue plus your name or the group to ask for. All Start times must be 7-8pm.

If using that e-mail link to get on the party crew list, simply give your name or nickname with an e-mail address. If you have a preferred music taste or preferred area in Metro Detroit you can mention that too. We like to get around. Email list is private, it's never given to anyone else, and notifications are by Bcc.

Madman Mike's Party Crew Nights started again in 2008. They were discontinued years ago but are being brought back by overwhelming requests. Most types of music entertainment are fair game, but never opera!

NOTE: depending on road construction, snow storms, or if at the last minute he gets booked as a DJ, Mike's personal plans to check out Michigan musicians and performers are subject to change without notice.

Many of the WARRENDALE PARTY GROUP (80s-90s, Jimmy Jams, Walsh's on the Border, Bucks Place, First Edition, etc.) joined our Party Crew! Captain Mark & Lori, Tony & Mary, Richie & Sandy, Jumbo & Boozie Suzie, Party Chuck, Sheila, Arlene, Curtis from the "Gun Shot" band, Keith, "Handsome Uncle Vince" & Sarah Zabowski, Scooter & Janice, ...



NOTE: Mike is a serious, distinguished, sophisticated DJ at weddings and formal events. However, he is much more than a one dimensional DJ. He can also have crazy fun being the DJ for people who want to let loose in a non-formal atmosphere. Everything is not black tie! And he proudly supports local musicians and entertainers.
