Grab, Just a short note to say that when you are in Novi you are as close to Ann Arbor as you are to Detroit, if you factor in traffic...open mic night at the Ark is Tuesday or Wednesday...all other nights great performers... I saw Utah Phillips there last Saturday. Detroit has a few great blues places, The Music Menu, The Old Miami, Bert's Marketplace... The Cadieux Cafe has Folk, a Hoot on Wednesdays, and feather bowling... and Belgian beer and mussels. Bakers Keyboard Lounge is the world renowned Detroit Jazz Club...
