Love Jet!
I hear a lot more Detroit in their sound than Shazam ... but that's
just me. Oz bands do Detroit better Detroit natives ...seemingly ...
I'm not mentioning names. ;-)
It's Jet's "Are You Gonna' Be My Girl" backing the latest Ipod rawk
spot ...was getting a bit sick of the Black Eyed Peas spot personally
... not a hip hop dog personally!
Y'all can watch it here, it kicks some serious booty!

Sad concerning show turn outs these days, thought mebbe it was NYC
thing. I don't know, maybe things shall turn around, hopeful they do.
I've been at this band seeing thing for thirty plus years now and until
recently ... I dunno ... chalk it up to complacency ..? Who knows.
ROCK ON!

Yes!!
I picked up the Jet CD a couple of weeks ago, and it immediately
reminded me
of The Shazam! Being a huge fan of The Shazam anyway, I've really been
digging this Jet CD. It's been in heavy rotation in my CD players at
work,
in my car, and at home. I can't get enough of these guys. As the Not
Lame
peeps would say, this release is extremely highly recommended! :)
Speaking of The Shazam, I don't think I ever posted a note about their
show
in Detroit a few weeks back. Unfortunately, there was a bad turnout,
which
makes me wonder where the Detroit pop scene people are...but the guys
put on
a great show nonetheless. I brought a couple of friends with me to the
show,
and aside from the other band waiting for their set, to my complete
shock, I
was the only person in the bar who was there to see The Shazam! I still
can't believe that.
Anyway, Hans and the boys were nice enough to spend some time with me
at the
bar afterwards, and I have to say, there are one of the nicest group of
guys
I've ever met. I hope that I get some promotion going up in Detroit and
one
day get them back here! Seeing them in Chicago at IPO last spring was
awesome..and having them at home in Detroit was even better! But now I
want
more :)
Cheers,
Sarah
