Rejuvinating Detroit, MI as a Creative Cultural Hub - Let's give D-Town something great to talk about.
Idea Description
The Mission: Celebrating and reveling in the creative juices emanating from the cultural epicenter of Detroit, MI
Rock D-Town is a 3-5 week tour in Detroit, Flint and Ann Arbor, MI featuring local bands with talent and a rising headliner band from MI. The tour will promote the culture hub of Detroit and raise money for local charities who support the arts. Community service events will be held before each event giving the community a chance to make a difference with the band members!
Local businesses to MI will be recruited as sponsors to help off set the costs of providing this rock tour and promoting their business!
Rock D-Town values: talent, community, and development.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
10K would help us bring a rockin' band from MI back from their national tour to be the headliner for our entire tour. The 10K would also help us advertise this tour to bring out the talented locals and philanthropic citizens together to bring some good news to Detroit.

woo i grew up in the d and i must say that is a sweet idea.. birth place of techno babay!
Great idea. I wonder if you could expand to other metro areas in the future. Don't forget to ask people to join your facebook group http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=11283380039
This is an amazing idea. Keep up the voting and make it happen!
D-town has always had talent, it's just that with the hype of NYC and LA, they've always moved out of Michigan in the hopes that they'll have better luck swimming in the overcrowded pond than the scarecely populated sea. Detroit was also the birthplace of Motown, a record label that later became the name of an entire movement. Keep up the good work and let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
I like pizza.
Great Idea! Best Of Luck!
Awesomeeee, cant wait to see D-town rocked out w/ something positive.
