Layabouts on MySpace
May 8th, 2006If you live in Detroit, you are liable to form the opinion that anarchy is the best form of government. Or maybe, if you have formed that opinion, you are drawn to the anarchy of Detroit. Either way, you can do your part to stick it to the man, by listening to the Cass Corridor based Layabouts on MySpace. From Stephen Goodfellow, “In existence since 1981, The Layabouts is not so much band as a community of musicians who hold similar beliefs about the state of the World. They express this by composing and performing music of their own making, meaningful lyrics set to a beat that set your feet a-dancin’. Rock, reggae, ska - lyrics that’ll make you want to pull down the pyramid of authority while you gyrate to a beat that is in harmony with the Universe.” I always loved listening to the Layabouts perform at Dally in the Alley and the 4th Street Fair.
