There will be a Crossroads Music Festival fundraiser tomorrow Saturday, May 31st at TC’s Speakeasy in Historic Downtown Ypsilanti from noon until 6PM. While I can’t be positive about it, I believe this event, as well as The Corner Brewery’s Terrible Twos Anniversary Blowout, is part of a city-wide celebration of my birthday. Word has it there will even be a big fireworks celebration at dusk in Prospect Park.

This event is all ages from noon until 6pm at which time it becomes 18+. Smoking will not be permitted in the stage room during the all ages portion of this event unless you are one of the bands performing.

TC’s Speakeasy is located at 207 W. Michigan Avenue. Doors open at noon and the fun continues all day long into the night. A donation of $5 to $10 is suggested at the door. Parking is free.

The entertainment begins with an offering of bands featuring students from the Ann Arbor Music Center also know as the “School of Rock“. Students range from the ages or 8-18. At 8 pm the 18+ portion of the schedule begins with a performance by Ypsilanti’s premier sketch comedy troupe – Monkey Rampant.

In addition to the contributions they receive at the door, TC’s is donating a percentage of their sales to the Crossroads Festival.

Scheduled performers include: HMS Epidemic, Shady Lane, Monkey Rampant, Maybe August, Paddy Ash, Rebecca Ryskolczyk, A Hotel Nourishing, 2 Day escape and Mumble.
