This is so far my only night that didn’t feature a guest DJ – instead we had the Beggars, one of Detroit’s most fun rock’n’roll bands, and their pals on tour, Collosus. For the music that night, I kept it to mostly good ol’ rock’n’roll. Unfortunately, this is one of the only tapes I can’t find to put online. So if you won the tape that night, let me borrow it and I’ll put it up! You can still read the playlist below.
