Post-Punk legends Cold Cave closed out their tour in Detroit, Michigan, a couple of weekends ago, and I was able to drop in from a busy schedule and snag their set. It almost didn’t work out, but we made it happen on my end, and I’m so glad it worked.

After a truly insane night at the Russell with Drain, No Pressure, Haywire, Secret World, and Cyadine, I didn’t even know if I had it in me to do this one. I was so whooped. I needed this weekend to whip me back into big show shape before the summer fests and tons of local shows to get swirly at.

Guilt Trip and Malevolence started their co-headliner tour at the infamous Shelter in Detroit, MI. Direct support for the tour is Nashville’s Chamber, and for the opening slot, Detroit Beatdown Hardcore Champions D-Bloc. I couldn’t get out of the house until after the doors opened, so I missed my friends in D-Bloc ripping the venue apart.

Shows like this are pretty synonymous with Downriver tbh. I cannot remember a hardcore benefit show I went to down there where a fight didn’t break out. This was no different, a real “welcome home” moment for me. Rest in Peace Jason.

This was a fun night. 5 bands. Show over before 10 pm. Stoned on the couch in Westland by 11. Hey, well, at least no one broke the water main. Kinda weird to still have the same energy after doing that though right? Anyway, all the bands ripped. Stoked for what's coming down the pipe.

313 Day at Edgemen Screenprinting was such a good show and an even better day. D Bloc, Bad Beat, Escalation of Force, and Resolute all got shots from me…

My friends in Zeta came through a few times in the last couple of months, but I missed their first one, so I made sure to get out and see them play a set at the Loving Touch in Ferndale as they were supporting the band A Lot Like Birds.

So nuts, I have seen Sammy play in 4 different bands in the last 2 years. His crossovers, playing open-handed, standing up and playing, all of it was so influential to me as I got deeper into drumming. He's so nuts. This makes me want to play again for sure. I need to do more drum cams going forward, it's the funnest shit out of all of the music photography stuff to do. Hang with them.

SHERBURT SELECTS is a way to express my childhood love for rare collectible cards.

Foils were some of my favorites to get. So why not do foil packs?
Yes, I do know there is a double entendre here with heroin foil packs. Yes, I am okay with that.
See what I am thinking of is Upper Deck and Fleer and Panini.
Where your mind goes, is not up to me.
The sixth pack has my favorite edit of the first set, Alkaline Trio.
Each set of 24 gets compiled and then packs get randomly sorted.
Six packs of four every quarter.
