As for the future of the band past Friday night’s show, many questions still linger?  Is Love Meets Lust reforming?  Will Love Meets Lust ever play again live?  Those answers right now are unknown; however, what is known is the fact that Luna Lounge is a great venue to see Love Meets Lust perform at. They go on early at 10:30 PM, so why not come on out and support a great local band?

All proceeds from the Spectacular benefit Detroit’s Coalition on Temporary Shelter (COTS). Since 2002, the Spectacular has raised over $15,000 for the Detroit-based organization, which provides emergency shelter and transitional housing for single men, women and families with children who need assistance in becoming economically self-sufficient.

By it’s own description Something Cold is “Detroit’s cavern for minimal-synth, European coldwave, early Electronic Body Music, new wave, various post-punk and other oddites.” We just see it as a hell of a good time. Something Cold has moved from the Trowbridge House of Coffee to the CAID, a bigger better venue for convulsing to the beats. Hosted by DJ Deadbeat, featuring David Blunk II of Godclub and Dethlab now under the moniker Vernichtung, Mean Mugger, and who else Motor City Rocks!! Motor City Rocks will be covering the event and hosting a dance off segment. We’ve modeled our dance off after WADL Dance Party, see below:

Come out to the CAID, we promise there will be much better music than a WADL dance party.
