I love it when things come together

Posted by ppna on May 29, 2008

This coming weekend will be another great weekend in Ypsilanti. The Corner Brewery is letting you get drunk for cheap and the folks from AA are going to help you clean up the mess. Both events will have very good FREE live music so tell your friends and family to head to Ypsilanti this Saturday for a great time.

Don’t forget to stay over for the Orphan Car Show on Sunday.

Saturday May 31st in Ypsilanti:

The Corner Brewery is having their 2 year anniversary party. The Bands are Fantastic so make sure you check them out.

Just down the street at Riverside Park (or Frog Island, there is different info out there) the Huron Valley Area Intergroup and Dawn Farm are sponsoring SOBERFEST 2008. Click on the image for a larger version.


Here are the links I’ve found to the bands at SoberFest

Live Music, Featuring:

* Noteworthy Performing at 4pm — Shiba combines R&B, jazz, blues and rock into a soulful blend of captivating sound
* Vineyard Church Choir
* Lemon James Band performing at 2pm — She is a Rock N Roll lady

I sure hope the Soberfest folks recruit people from the Corner Brewery to their event.
