    We're working on a music documentary on the Detroit music scene in the 60's and want to talk to fans who were a part of this world.

    We want to hear your stories about the music, the style, the venues and everything else that contributed.

    We have some budget to pay interviewees for their time. Email us at lucyjewelrose@gmail.com.

    Garage bands were actual up & coming bands that played inside their parents new backyard garage back in the 60's [[remember the garage building boom in the 1960's).....all of the neighborhood kids watched, some band parents provided refreshments and/or 45's to purchase. The "new" K-mart in Garden City hosted several "battle of the [[garage) bands" in their parking lot. Ate pizza at the 1st Little Caesars in the same parking lot during various breaks as new bands were preparing to setup their equipment to play.....Love Potion #9, Gloria, Louie-Louie, Wipeout, were the popular hits.....
