Were there bands at the Dream Cruise?
Wow. Alto Reed, from a hometown band, nationally known, no mention of his show other than the start time.
Rare Earth, hometown band also nationally known, same thing.
Crewsade, hometown band known throughout the tri-county area, same thing.
How disgraceful.
These acts played for minimum fees - or no fees at all - sweated it out like everyone else and provided wonderful entertainment to all....but you'd never know it. They were all right there in Ferndale.
I realize and understand that the focus is - and should be - on the cars. But for the Detroit News, as well as other local media and TV, not to provide even a short, simple review of these hard working groups and musicians is poor and unacceptable. Instead we heard over and over again about a giant cupcake.
What a shame. My hat is off to all musicians and other entertainers that never received an iota of acknowledgement or credit. Our local news media really dropped the ball on this one.
